Feedback Suppressor |
2-4 |
It is preferred that feedback eliminators are employed in FOH and monitor systems. If none, then Graphic EQ units must used so feedback areas can be dialed out. |
Power Amps |
2-6 |
In most cases this is a function of the monitor and main speaker arrangements as well as the size of the venue/show. Minimums are 150 watts for vocal monitors, 200 watts for drummer’s monitor, 600 watts for each FOH speaker. |
Speakers/Drivers |
2-10 |
In most cases this is a function of the venue size. In small to medium-sized venues (200 to 400 people) it is desirable to have at least two 15” speakers or an 18” and a 15” on each side of the stage. Preference is for midrange speakers to be in at least two of the cabinets. Compression driver horns on each side of stage – NO PIEZO HORNS if possible! For larger venues and outdoor functions arrangements must be discussed/outlined ahead of time between sound system provider and band representative(s). |
