[Well all the people on Tour get to show off all their gear, why not us house sound guys? I co run the sound with the other guy Mike,here at our venue we are running 2 Turbosound Floodlights and 4 Turbosound TSW721 subs per side. Our monitors are 8th Day 15''+ Horn biamped, 4 mixes from FOH. FOH is being powered by old BSS 760s and our monitors by some Macrotech36x12. Our FOH is a Midas Verona 480, Klark Teknik DN3600 EQs, and some crappy comps and gates by Behringer. They are the worst link in the system

Hopefully in the next month the stairs on SL will be taken out and the PA will get up in the air. Not a bad little rig though.







 
Re: House Sound Gear

My 700 cap house gig when I'm home has a flown Nexo Alpha system(4 boxes per side), with 6 S12's run cardioid under the stage, 2 PS10's flown for FF, a boat load of PS15's for wedges, an M7CL-48 out front and an LS9-32 for mons. I've spent the past month tuning the system up and getting it the best sounding it's ever been.



I'll have to find some better pictures...

Re: House Sound Gear

A couple from my photo collection:



A very well done Adamson Spektrix rig at the Port Theatre in Nanaimo, BC:





A mess of Mackie at the Varsity in Minneapolis (the room itself is a really cool place to do a show, but they really need to put in a real PA):





The super huge MILO rig at the Warfield in SF:

 
Re: House Sound Gear

The system sounds better than ever. Putting the subs in cardioid (under the stage!!!) helped immensely! Thanks for your help, Evan! Now, if I could only rid myself of this head cold and clear my ears...



Crack the Sky is not yet scheduled - seems as though there are some personnel issues with them at this time...
