Building a band system to isolate IEM mixing from venue / engineer
Kirky replied to warwickhunt's topic in PA set up and use
I hope I've understood the question...we have 16 channels (vox x 4, bass, guitar, stereo keys, and the rest is drums. Our mics/instruments go into the 2 x Art S8 splitters, and I have a 16 channel loom that goes into the house PA. We only play 2 venues where we do this, the rest of the time I don't bring the loom and we just use our PA (X18, tucked into the rack) for FOH. Whilst I built it, and it works for us, I don't understand much of what goes on FoH. -

This is what I've done for our band. Most of our gigs are using our own PA, but I've included a splitter in the rack so we just use our own IEM mix and there's tails for FOH. -
Choosing one for tonight's first gig of the year.

My very simple board. Powered via a Cioks 4 and an Anker power bank (although the EBS is powered using phantom power when we gig).

My son's former band, Mush, in London a while ago. He's the guitarist in the baseball cap.

Two of mine are in bands now, one on bass, the other on guitar. I'm very jealous of the awesome gigs they get to play (Brudenell, Parasido in Amsterdam, Glastonbury, a Marc Riley session), and they're very jealous that my gigs tend to be better paid! One added benefit of having your kids into music is that they help me keep in touch with decent new bands/artists

TKS S212 Cab 500W 4Ohm. **ON HOLD** - *SOLD*
Kirky replied to bigthumb's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
My old cab too, which coincidentally I only sold after I ruptured my quadricep tendon and needed something with a one hand lift. A really special cab, which I'd have back in a heartbeat if I was still using an amp. -
For it's because it makes everything easier to hear, which is the purpose of monitoring, right? To a certain extent (I suspect you won't like this) I'm not that bothered about what people hear FOH.

I'm running stereo IEMs using a Behringer P16M. The keyboards in particular sound much better, and I pan drums around a bit, and backing vocals left and right. For me it's much better. Because it's a digital out from the desk, it doesn't use the Auxes. The drummer does the same as me, and the others are mono at the moment, although I think the keys player is keen to give it a go.
