sexytunk Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Is the PA in room 2 the same as room 1 at The Tunnels? Sorry for my ignorance, but I've never actually been in room 2.We are playing a private function there next month, and Hen and the organizer have been good enough to sort out a deal for us to use the inhouse PA. Just sort of want to know what to expect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 i doubt it's the same, it's perfectly adequete though. presume you're just having DJs playing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexytunk Posted May 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 i doubt it's the same, it's perfectly adequete though. presume you're just having DJs playing?No live 3 piece, drums, bass, guitar and 3 vocal. Take is there are bass bins etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Exposure @ Lemon Tree Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Far as I'm aware they have all of that stuff - why don't you just ask Hen though?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 well for a question as complex as that would you rather it was guessed at by people like us or answered by the guy whose job it is to help you with this? please don't get me started on this because it's one of my most documented hates about this site.

I'm not looking for volume ratings or any shit like that, just some basic info from a site of people who may have more experience at playing the tunnels than i haveDon't get me started on my pet hate, people being awkward twats on this site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbroken Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 The PA in Tunnel 2 is much smaller than that in Tunnel 1.Their are a pair of Nexo PS10's and one matching sub to go with it.A gig in this room can work as long as the band communicate with the engineer.Most of the sound should come off the stage, as generally, only the kick drum needs to be mic'ed up.When I do sound in there, I mic up the kick drum, DI the bass, mic up the guitars (but only for monitoring purposes) and then I obviously mic up the vocals.How many people are you expecting? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbroken Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 This is what I was looking for, cool cheers.100 expected (apparently)yeah that will probably be ok. The PA isn't that powerful. I don't think it would manage with 200 people. But for 100, it will probably be ok. But seriously, take my advice, work with the engineer.

In any case I found out the information I required! So your argument seems pretty dead in the water.And I didn't come on here for an argument with you, I wanted genuine information, not in depth just basic info, it's my business how I go about getting it!
