Título universitario
Es un título de un Instituto Superior de una Universidad de Argentina.
Pensé en la opción "BACHELOR OF ARTS IN LIVE SOUND ENGINEERING" pero no se si se presta a confusión, ya que la persona es LICENCIADO, no INGENIERO. La opción "Bachelor of Arts in sound" me parece un poco genérica, nada específica.
técnico sonidista en vivo= live sound technician.
¿Me darían una mano, colegas?
¡¡Gracias!!

Degree in sound engineering/live sound technician
AKA a degree in audio engineering… But don't let the "engineering" bit bother you.
The distinction between "ingeniero/licenciado" does not come into the picture. If it's a university level qualification, it's a degree.
I probably wouldn't bother with the "Bachelors" part myself...

: Agree with "diploma", "degree in", definitely leaving out "Bachelor's", see note in discussion.

I would avoid "Bachelor's" because it is an academic equivalence (credits/time of study) and these differ greatly from country to country. A translator is simply not qualified to make these equivalencies. There are regulatory bodies just for this purpose:

For example, in Canada they can be a provincial or national level. They require an Educational Credential Assessment. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/se...
The safest option is "diploma", "degree" (or even "certificate" if you're less certain), as the number of credits/years of study required to obtain a "Bachelor's" in one country is not necessarily the same as the target country.
