Subject: RE: Tech: Equipment for new band
Mo - As we dont know what instrumentation OR numbers in band , its a bit of a 'How Long is a Piece of String' question . For MOST Ceilidh / Barndance situations you shouldn't need more than two or three Hundred Watt , with a seperate channel on the mixer for each mic or instrument , ideally with a couple of spare channels . A Radio Mic for the caller is a distinct advantage , especially if you want to be 'On The Floor' rather than on stage ! Pick Ups on instruments are a lot easier than microphones , and dont need satnds either .
