Hi Gmc. Nowadays i´m thinking the posibility to buy a sound to work in different options to perform. 1. acoustic performance. 2. like a duo or trio. 3. like a band. what setting do you recomend me to each perform? in the first i was thinking to buy a portable system by fender. any other posibility? like a band i was thinking to buy 2 cabinets JBL or Yamaha.... a mixer..... microphones... etc. maybe could be a good idea replace the mixer and using an interfaz to manage with a digital mixer and using plugins..... may you show me some examples to set? thanks! -------------------- .:: Colombian fingerstyle guitar player ::.

Have a look at the Behringer X32 Compact it's an affordable digital mixer but they have done a superb job on it, great functionality and bussing and effects. Lots of venues and bands use the bigger X32.

A close friend of mine just bought one. He's truly satisfied with his X32. So I add +1 for PosterBoy

A typical setup I see in cafes for acoustic gigs (2 or 3 people) usually consist of : 1. Powered mixer (such as : Behringer PMP560M) 2. 2 Speakers (passive ones which fit the power of the mixer) 3. Mics/cables etc I think the setup above is flexible. Another option is to get powered speakers and then you don't need a powered mixer, just a regular one. Using a computer to mix the audio should also work if you have a nice audio interface on it and you are sure it won't produce latency or something. In this case you could just go for 2 active PA speakers if I'm not mistaken (someone correct me?) and connect your audio card to the speakers directly. As they are powered speakers, you'll need to also plug them into electricity power source. My suggestion would be to start small and go for a budget option for start and then sell/buy new stuff as your needs grow. Also in many cafes you'll get to use their in house speakers system so that it one factor to consider. I'd suggest getting a solid vocals mic though from start, usually shure sm58 works well for live purposes. Please let me know if you have any follow up questions, I'll be glad to help -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Just a few words about the Beta 58. It's great, bright mic wit a lot of presence that makes cristal sounding vocals but....very often it's giving You feedback at much smaller volumes than sm58. You have to try for Yourself. If the band is relatively quiet to the voice emission level You'll probably get no issues. Otherwise You'll not be able to set enough vocal volume in the monitors to hear properly. It's mostly about playing in small halls etc. SM58 in this case is more safe mic. Like I said...You have to match it to Your musical projects but if You decide to buy beta and have problems like I said, You'll at least know where to search for the problem Yeah i agree, i think that Sm 58 and Sm 57 are an obligation -------------------- .:: Colombian fingerstyle guitar player ::.

...You feedback at much smaller volumes than sm58. ... The Beta is a supercardiod design so is more likely than the normal sm58 to feedback if you have the monitor behind the singer. If you put the monitors at about 60 degrees it should be fine. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

Thanks for the tips, mate I'll see what I'll spend my cash on - I bought this so far:
http://www.shure.com/americas/products/mic...ocal-microphone But this is very good for recording - both vocals and guitars Out of what I know - have you tried it? |

Yes and it's a very good mic for both. Probably one of not many dynamic mics that can be set pretty flat.
