In Reply to: new band seeks advice on setup posted by kavu on July 31, 2008 at 09:08:27:
...to retain the beauty and tone of acoustic instruments by their not being amped needlessly.Vocal/area reinforcement with GOOD (Neumann) mics, and perhaps an amp for upright bass (if used) are all that is needed indoors. For outdoor tent gigs, rent a "house system" and charge accordingly.
A modest, quality system for small venues should be affordable and top mics do not become obsolete.
Best!
