Broadcast Radio & Television

A picture without sound is “technical difficulties”, but sound without a picture is radio…

BIG BEAR SOUND has gained extensive experience through many years of serving and supporting radio stations, studios, and producers throughout Ireland in the commercial, community, and education sectors.  From cutting-edge, state-of-the-art national broadcast facilities through to online streaming, local and teaching studios, we have a wide range of products and solutions, ensuring that we can cater to every requirement and budget.

For documentaries and reporting, we supply a vast range of location equipment – e.g., mics, recorders, headphones – always favouring pro-quality, reliable, industry-standard gear that sounds great and lasts, leaving you to concentrate on capturing the content you want. Our commitment to quality ensures that you can trust in the reliability and performance of our equipment.

When it’s time to edit and construct your story, show, or ad, we offer a range of computer-based production systems, including voice-over recording, sound design, metering, and quality control, as well as backup and archiving.

We specialise in studio installations and can help you plan, create, and run your entire radio facility. This includes incorporating production rooms and full-on-air studios for music, interviews, and chat.  We can take care of all the technical aspects – including mixing console specifications, playback and automation systems, programme logging, telephone hybrid & mix-minus solutions, red lights, wiring, etc. – and provide operator training and walk-throughs of the systems and workflow, ensuring a seamless and efficient setup.
