  1. I was following along looking for the good bit but not following you here. Once you go from your system to their system I don't see that it matters how low the input gain is on theirs so long as you aren't clipping your output trying to drive it.
  2. Does not gel with our other function venue operations expert opinion.
  3. Tone full. Neck down just a little. Bridge full. Growl city, plenty of low end.
  4. Perhaps you can explain how the heck your wrist hits the binding?
  5. Define small. So small you have to play quietly? I don't sing so sometimes I hop off, or out of the 'stage area', to hear wth is going on. It's always plenty plenty loud. You could use the 15 as a stand and pump up the 210 but it's less than ideal having a passive radiator sucking out lows.
  6. Is there another venue needs a wedding of that Tuesday night that is empty on the Monday? Methinks there could be any number doing sfa that early in the week in the middle of winter. Get them on the phone and see if they take on function bands without auditions and let them self manage sounds. With another venue in the offing the bride needs to finagle the current one into admitting by email they actively mislead her on multiple fronts about the band situation. Book the other venue and tell the noise police she's cancelling and wants her deposit back. Small claims court if they refuse.
  7. Anyone in the families a lawyer that can tear the venue contract up and tell them what's happening?
  8. At least it sounds like the venue has backed off from their pre event soundcheck demand?
  9. That's no fun but don't let it detract from your chi! Nobody that isn't Derek the failed DJ will be paying you any attention.
  10. Not your one, the previous two for the high spec multi room tuned system.
  11. The magic number in that memo to bands is the same 96 as what the OP got told. Maybe just coincidence. 96dB on the dancefloor would be a pretty good party.
  12. More on this. Effectively your contract has been broken so unless they find a way to accommodate you someone owes you a cancellation fee. I am the last guy to start playing hardball but maybe that's what it is coming down to in this situation. Everyone getting pished at you seems inevitable so you might as well get the first shot in.
  13. So the 96dB limit they give bands is pure fable. I will have to go back and see if OP's band is under the gun to plug into the house system.
  14. They obviously let the noise police set the limiter far below what is intended when they spec the system. At that point I would give up on the amplification altogether and have a 'campfire band' for those places. Whole world has gone mad.
  15. Similar result but with more curves left in and coming from trad P shape whereas the Fender is coming from re-inverting the t'bird which came from squaring off the P and making it more pointy. P pickup for P sounds?
  16. The middle photo is very like the evo4. Then comes the 'knockoff avoider'?
  17. I think the expression is 'argument against', unless you're click baiting in which case I offer you the raspberry.
  18. Prunes & Custard for something a bit different that combines well with other stuff to be something else again.
  19. An answer to the question of how those fancy systems wind up sounding if you don't trip their limiter when putting whatever through them sound would be nice. How about the full skinny please? A: e-drums, restrained backline not enough to be interfering in vocal mics, not covering whole venue but not giving a damn, Auntie can natter away to drums and vox and some bleed just fine, dancefloor @ something under 96dB thereabouts avoiding engaging the limiter. B: full e-band backline IEM. C: 1 mousepower backline monitors, e-drums and everything into the mixer. D: live drums, IEM everyone.
  20. Seems nobody sells Ric's. Just one listed in the last week.
  21. See if you can get your head around floating thumb on your 4 first. That makes it much easier to switch onto 5 ime.
  22. And your venue name is still there in the second page.
  23. I meant push the mixed output of everyone so hard it hits (runs into) the limiter all the time.
  24. You haven't finished redacting the venue.
  25. If you don't run it into the limiter does it sound ok, just too quiet?
