[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 83328, member: 30"] Re: Craigslist ad: Need Sound Man, Salary pay My system back then was 2 cabinets that I built. Each had 2 12" 50 watt woofers and a 4x10" horn from Radio shack. The mixer was a 4 channel with volume-bass-treble that I built out of the chassis of my first guitar amp-a Kay. and the amp was a 40 watt tube paging amp from the Korean war. The summer after HS I built a ONE HUNDRED WATT amp-that I still have somewhere in storage. I was rockin' now! Of course times were VERY different back then. Mics were $5 "recording" mics with a 1/8" plug for going to a cassette recorder-I put 1/4" plugs on them so they would be more "professional". Mic stands were foldable music stands with some extensions taped on them. And I was LUCKY to have that! You learn a lot when you have nothing. My next mixer was a 6 channel with vol bass-middle-treble. Then the one I built and used for rentals for a good number of years was a TWELVE channel-with 3 way tone controls-stereo outputs effects and monitor sends (one of each). My first real mixer was a Biamp 1621. [/QUOTE]
