PA questions for public speaking ASAP!
Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2014 5:37 pm
Deadline is today! (07/28/14)
the gal pal wants to get a better set up for lecturers/speakers at the local HP campus.
the current set up is a shure wireless system (w/lapel mic and hand held mic)
this goes into a fender passport (pd 250)
and, well, that's it really.
Her issues are due to user error (on the lecturer's part) and limitations of the equipment (ex: i think the passport only can have two speakers and has no mute buttons).
What she wants to accomplish is:
prevent popping sounds from lapel mic (the lecturers are for whatever reason insulted by hand helds)
have four speakers (two on stage, two in the back of the room)
wants to have control board away from stage so she doesn't have to run up to the stage to make adjustments
control to mute individual mics.
cables to connect laptop to pa system, and speaker cable of course.
I no very little about sound, so here's as far as I've gotten:
scrap the fender passport
A. Mic --> Receiver -->Powered Mixing Board -->four un-powered speakers
B. Mic --> Receiver -->Un Powered Mixing Board -->four powered speakers
C. Mic --> Receiver -->un powered Mixing Board --> power amp (or two?)-->four un powered speakers
I think lapel mics are just gonna pop because of what they are, but if you have recommendations, please let me know
Does any of this make sense? which is a better option? other options?
