Atmosphere is Everything.
Great food and drink are only half the story. We craft the audio-visual heartbeat of Scotland’s top venues, creating spaces where customers want to linger, spend, and return.
Audio That Sets the Mood, Not the Volume.
There is a fine line between “energetic” and “noisy.” Our distributed audio systems deliver crystal-clear, rich sound that fills the room without overpowering conversation. From morning coffee playlists to late-night DJ sets, you control the energy of your venue with a single touch.
Rock-Solid Connectivity & Control.
In a busy service, downtime is not an option. We install enterprise-grade networks, high-throughput WiFi, and secure IP CCTV systems that keep your operations running smoothly. Whether it’s EPOS integration that works or digital signage management, our infrastructure works as hard as your staff.
Digital Signage & Video
Video walls, projection mapping, and digital menus that grab attention.
Zoned Audio Systems
Multi-zone control for distinct atmospheres in the bar, restaurant, and terrace.
Network, Wifi & CCTV
Secure guest WiFi, IP security cameras, and robust data networks.
Trusted by Scotland’s Best
We are the AV partner of choice for award-winning venues including Spanish Butcher Glasgow and Edinburgh, Beresford Lounge Glasgow, Duck & Waffle Edinburgh, Ubiquitous Chip Glasgow, Ka Pao, Butchershop and more.
Your Partner in Hospitality Technology
We know that in hospitality, you only get one chance to make a first impression. We work alongside your architects, interior designers, and operations teams to deliver systems that enhance your venue without disrupting your design.
Design-Led Approach:
We don’t just sell speakers; we design soundscapes. We review your floor plans to ensure speakers are hidden, screens are perfectly placed, and cabling is invisible, preserving your venue’s aesthetic.
Deadlines Matter.
We understand the pressure of an opening night. Our teams work flexibly around your construction schedule to deliver a fully tested, ready-to-go system on time and on budget.
The Show Must Go On.
Technology failures during service cost money. We offer support agreements set to the venue and remote monitoring to ensure your music, lights, and networks perform perfectly, night after night.
Venues we have worked in
Recent hospitality work includes Gaucho in Glasgow, Hutchesons City Grill, Ka Pao in the West End, Duck and Waffle in Edinburgh and the Old Loans Inn.
Questions we are asked
Do you handle our music licensing?
We advise on it. PPL and PRS licensing sits with the venue, and what you need depends on what you play and where you play it. We will tell you what the system implies for licensing so it is not a surprise later, but the licence itself is yours to hold.
Can you install outside trading hours?
Yes, with notice. Overnight and closed-day working is normal for us in a live venue, and it usually costs less than losing covers. Tell us early, because it changes how we staff and sequence the job.
Do you work with groups running several sites?
Yes. Multi-site works best with one specification designed once and repeated, so a manager moving between venues finds the same controls in the same places. It also makes support simpler, because we maintain one system in several places rather than several different ones.
Can staff change the music without breaking the system?
That is the point of zoning it properly. Front of house, dining and outside areas run as separate zones with volume limits set where they need to be, so a member of staff can change what is playing in one area without affecting the rest or pushing a room past comfortable.
Will it stand up to a busy venue?
It has to. Equipment goes in ventilated, locked positions rather than under a bar where drinks reach it, cabling is run in containment, and we specify hardware rated for the hours a venue actually runs. Most call-outs in hospitality trace back to where something was mounted, not to what it was.
What happens if it fails on a Friday night?
You call one number. Support is agreed in writing before handover, with remote diagnosis first and attendance where that will not fix it. Response times are set against how much the room costs you when it is down.
