Equipment for Bands

This year we are borrowing equipment from KBOO, Marcelo Spina, and Seamus. Marcelo is coordinating day-of setup, running of the sound board, and teardown. Is this where information about the stage goes?

All right....With Geek Fair over I can now say that it is well worth renting all the equipment we do not have from a single location, notably showcase sound on hawthorne. Hold this equipment well in advance to be safe. The equipment we need, at minimum, includes:

• mixing board with a fair amount of aux channels, (4 or 6)
• power amps, ( for mains and monitors) (showcase has power amp/mixing board combo)
• monitor speakers, (wedge type, self powered would be great!)
• compressors and possibly a crossover
• FX units, (reverb, EQ's, feedback eliminators would be great)
• microphones, (dynamic and condenser)
• microphone stands
• cables, (XLR, 1/4", and speaker cords)
• stage snakes, (8 or 12 channels. 16 would be awesome)
• headphones, (noise cancelling is the best!)
• 19" rack cases...w/ casters would be really nice
• some way to play music between bands when nothing else is happening, like an mp3 player
• Main speakers and stands (be sure that they work together!)

the time is yesterday to start seeing who will donate these things for next year
