aframe9999 Posted March 12, 2001 Share Posted March 12, 2001 What are some of the advantages/disadvantages of hiring sound production in a club/private gig setting? If you do hire sound, what are some things to beware of and look out for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedster Posted March 12, 2001 Share Posted March 12, 2001 Well, the most obvious consideration is "Does the gig pay enough, and is it an important enough gig (big enough) to warrant hiring outside help?". If it's a big club giving you big bucks, and you're playing through that little Peavey 8 channel powered mixer and a couple of homemade columns you had in Jr. high school...then maybe it'd be a wise decision. If you've got a halfassedly decent live rig, and it's just another club, then I'd rethink that. Nothing is more silly than overkill, in my opinion. Mind you, I'm not talking about showing up prepared for a gig with a good system. I'm talking about like a Madison Square Garden system for the corner tavern. The only thing more silly is underkill...showing up at a top flight club with the Peavey 8 channel powered mixer, etc. "Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
