[QUOTE="Randy Pence, post: 97702, member: 1108"] Re: Freelancers, do any of you carry mixing consoles? Briefcase mixer gigs are exactly hte situation I'm in. I'm a city guy, so I'd just take a taxi. Small club and bar level mixing is where I am at, and that usually means some really old analog board with an almost bare minimum amount of outboard. As far as the snake goes, I'd grudgingly use the house snake, or buy a 30m 32/8 from Thomann, because renting one that size is about an 8th of hte purchase and it is rare that I need more than 5 monitor mixes. Digital stageboxes would be a long term goal, or sell the mixer and get a core and control surface combo if behringer ever offers that. I've mixed on 16ch 01vs and ls9s, and am willing to sacrifice a smaller footprint for a less cluttered frame Stuff like monitors, stands, cables, PA, etc would continue to be rented as needed, or use what is available. My main issue speccing rentals in my local market is that none of the providers are offering newer generation lounge level digital mixers at lounge level prices. It is no problem finding varsity consoles and 01v96s, but I am somewhere in between. [/QUOTE]
