Welcome to the forum, Kevin!

Around here drummers that want to play the type of music that I want to play are few and far between. The guy we have now isn't up to snuff so I often do The Harley.

e835's. I love the crispness of the high end. IMO sm58's have too much lows. I do like 57s on guitars.

Thanks guys I appreciate the tips immensely.

Awesome! Thanks for the tip, Bill. Those PreSonus StudioLives are looking pretty good. Getting one would cost me as much as two decent compressors alone which is pretty neat.

I was curious how many channels you guys use when you're running sound for bands? I assume 3 for vocals (lead and backups), 1 for bass, 1 or 2 for guitar(s), at least 4 or 5 for drums?

so 10 or 11 channels? That's a lot of money for compressors. How many do you really need?

e835's are a great mic for the price and the market isn't filled with knockoffs of 'em.

Mmmm Friesland sounds delicious.

On the topic of cabling. Here's an interview from yesterday with Monster Cable founder. He talk about the technical side of things. (I'm sure much of his claims are bunk).

My mistake it is a speaker cable. I don't think anyone makes a 12 gauge instrument cable. lol

I have them cut at about 25ft a piece.

I got some long ass instrument cables from ebay in .12, clipped off the ends and cut 'em to length. They're not the highest quality cables, but they're sufficient.

Really makes you think, one day you're here and then just as easily, gone the next. I feel for his family and he and they will be in my prayers.

RIP Greg.

He means it looks like this.
