Should be OK for that - guitars and bass need the same and I guess vocals will need similar mixes.
-
I think to include the backing tracks and clicks and have individual mixes we need to do that? We can't rely on FOH sorting out all our mixes I think since some venues are pretty basic and may not have that kind of knowledge. I was looking at the kind of set up in this image: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/setting-up-iem-gigs.1371246/#post-21946840 Sounds pretty similar to what you are doing?

Thanks, not exactly what we needed to hear 🙂😐 I guess mono will be OK, it will all be through a house desk which will all be different... We absolutely don't know what we are doing so maybe inexperience and cost will push us to wired...looking at EW300/PSM900, both are going to be too expensive for the short term. If we keep it simple and just go wired I guess the P2 is the best way forward from what I've read? So Instrument->splitter->mixer->IEMs? Back to the start of the thread for me to read some more 🙂 Thanks for the advice.

So....some probably pretty obvious questions coming... I've read the start of the thread but am drowning in info... We are a 9-10 piece band who will be doing a few dates in small concert venues. 2xGuitar and bass all have classic backline. Then drums, keys, 2xStrings, 3xVocals on top. We will have some backing tracks through the PA and will need clicks, and everyone will almost certainly need different IEM mixes. The thought of 9 IEM cables on stage on top of the existing ones is pushing us towards wireless but the cost looks to be 10x? (Behringer P2 vs UL1000) Are there any recommendations on the gear needed to get this sorted? I would say as cheaply as possible but reliability and good sound is more important. Any advice on what mixers or other gear would be needed to cope with at least 10 musicians? Very grateful for any hints...

A while away but we're (Ligeia Wept) doing a series of gigs in September. Could be a good night for any northern doomsters, goths etc. Some great other bands on the line up and the Todmorden gig is in an architecturally stunning church.

Never thought of that! I guess if they can wrap weird shapes on cars they can do a bass... will go and investigate... thanks 🙂

Has anyone any experience getting a bass painted and airbrushed with their own design? I'm thinking about trying this since it seems like the best way to get a bass I like playing with the aesthetics I want. Curious to what the costs and pitfalls may be.... Any recommendations on where to go? cheers Graham

He said he does it to finance his bass habit and to get to try a load of basses he wouldn't otherwise have. He wasn't bothered about it when I said his original price was higher than Bass Direct and wasn't at all pushy about selling. He actually bought a bass off me about a year ago, I put the ad on Gumtree and he answered inside of 1 hour and bought it the next day. I only realised it was him when I saw him to buy the new one. To be fair if he was in Aberdeen I would have bought a different one, him being basically just down the M62 makes it easy. And the cuppa 🙂

I bought a bass off him a few months ago, at the last minute I needed a specific bass type in the next few days for a first rehearsal with a new band and he had one. In stock new was £1700, he had one for £1300, went down to £1200. Bass Direct had the same bass for £1200 used but in a colour I really dislike otherwise I would have bought theirs. So I bought his...was it overpriced for a bass from a private sale? Probably, but it was there, 45 minutes drive away, exactly the bass/colour I wanted and in mint condition. A month or two later one was on ebay for about £1000, but was 2 months too late for me 🙂 So very happy with my purchase, the bass is great and he seems a nice guy, let me have all the time I wanted to play and check the bass and went off to make me a cup of tea.

Far from an expert but I've had a NS Ethos 5 for a month or so and I love it. Great quality and a real joy to play. The Aguilar pick ups can give a nice clean sound which is exactly what I needed from it.
