[QUOTE="Evan Kirkendall, post: 123070, member: 5"] Re: So...What are you carrying as a backup mixer? (or are you?) Depends on the level of gig. In the arena touring market we carried a Mackie 1604vlz as a backup. If the FOH console ever went down the plan was to pipe a band mix to FOH via the monitor desk and then a breakout of the vocal channels. So, you'd get like 6 inputs to work with. Good enough to get through the gig. In the club touring market, if my touring console went down, we'd use the house desk, or just pipe a monitor mix into the processor at FOH. In the regional market, we carry a Mackie 1604vlz as a backup. Pull your favorite 16 inputs from the snake and do a rock show. Or if we have the luxury of a monitor desk, send a mon mix to FOH and make it work. In the bar band market, if the console goes down, we have another beer and go home early. Evan [/QUOTE]
