Venue Needs

We bring our own instruments, microphones, mic stands, and drums.  We use primarily in-ear monitors and provide our own monitor mixes, and only one floor monitor is used.  We do not use on-stage amplification.  We use wireless transmitters and receivers operating in the frequencies:

  • In-Ear Monitors: 530-555MHz and 902-928MHz
  • Microphones: 548-572MHz
  • Instruments: 516-558MHz, 2.4GHz, and 5.8 GHz

We need only:

  • Empty stage area no smaller than 12’ x 12’
  • 12 XLR inputs (for mono instruments and vocal microphones)
  • 7 drum mics and 8 XLR inputs
    • Kick, snare, tom 1, tom 2, tom 3, overhead 1, overhead 2, pad
  • 1 floor monitor (for drummer)
  • (Optional: 4 vocal microphones and 5 microphone stands, or we bring our own)
  • Personal Address (PA) system
  • Sound person to perform live mixing

We route all sound (unmixed) to Front Of House for mixing and amplification (PA).  Please see our Stage Layout and Input List, and contact us with any questions.
