Sound Quality

The Karaoke Dj's Sound Equipment Management Skills Rubric.

Students directions: In demonstrating sound equipment skills, students
must demonstrate an 80 percent accuracy. Without help or directions,
students need to turn on and operate sound equipment. Before a karaoke
show starts, students need to pass out books, pins, and request slips. In
dealing with new and regular customers, students must present good
costumer service skills. These skills require the Djs to interact with the
customers to encourage singing and socializing. Students conduct with
alcohol will be noted.
