PSU Professional Sound
The Popular Music Board is now Portland State Professional Sound, but we're still the number one provider of sound reinforcement for Portland State University, and the only place PSU students can get paid hands-on training in professional sound. PSPS has been around for nearly 40 years, formerly known as the Popular Music Board. Our group's main focus was booking events for PSU students to enjoy. Some years ago, the PMB acquired a small PA system, and started providing free sound support of other student group events.
We function as a hands-on training ground for individuals interested in the live sound industry, while saving PSU students tremendous amounts of money and hassle dealing with private-sector sound companies. We are a student fee funded group, offering paid positions for student sound technicians, and volunteer opportunities for those hoping to learn about pro audio. Soon we hope to offer music recording services and event lighting.
We put on a perpetual concert series during lunchtime at PSU, and at least one national act annually. We're always available to help student groups and others with sound support.
