[QUOTE="Jonathan Betts, post: 896, member: 164"] Last night I was filling in on drums and doing sound from stage at one of our local dives. Using my simple 12 channel mixer(7 band eq no low cut filter) 3 vocal mics, bass guitar, one drum overhead and kick coming through the PA(MRX 515 Srx 718). The stage is small about 10x15 6" off the ground and carpeted. The bar owner insists that we all play on the stage including our vocal mic stands. When doing a sound check with bass and drums it sounded nice and smooth. When the vocals were added there was a terrible "boomy sound" added to the mix with every kick beat. I have noticed this before when watching other bands. The highs and mid channel eq's were running flat and I had a little cut on the lows seeing that there is no low cut on the mixer. It was very frusturating no being able to address this problem while playing drums. When you stomp your foot on the stage you can here the same boomy frequency. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
