Hello to one and all. I'm the newest guy to the forum as of 10:00am EST today.
=)
I have 24 years of experience behind me and have played various venues up and down the east coast. I have seen and done alot over the years! I've been on the music scene full time and part time over the years. I specialize in weddings but I can do (and have done) all kinds and types of shows.
Back when I got into the business, I had a set of home made speaker boxes (I still have them and at times, use them). Back then, I also used a set of Technics turntables, a Teac cassette deck and an Atus AM300E mixer. I then migrated into the land of the CD - using 2 Technics house decks (these and the Atus are in storage).
Over the years, I have gathered and used various pieces of equipment. My 'big' system consists of Pioneer CD players and Serato Itch funneled through a Pioneer mixer and backed by a Crown amp and some older Peavey cabs that were retrofitted with some Black Widows - nice hard wood cabs. For larger events, I'll bring out the Peavey SP2 (Black Widow) speakers. I can also double them up if I need to.
My 'typical' set consists of most of the goodies of the big show with QSC K12 powered speakers.
Other brands I typically use are Sennheiser, Shure, Technics, Behringer and EV.
Over the years I have also gotten into lighting. While my main focus is on the musical presentation, I like the plug and play intelligent lighting - I have also done some light programming. Some brands I use for lighting - American DJ, Chauvet and Martin.
