Hi all!
I'm know I'm going to induce a bunch of face palms here, but I don't have any money and neither does the organization I'm helping so we have no choice
I'm doing live sound for an event (very small). Here's where the facepalms will start: I'm using my MOTU 896 as the mixer
I also don't have enough dynamics so I'm also going to use small diaphragm condensers
I'm not worried about latency. Cue mix helps me with that. I just have a few questions regarding this:
1) What are the risks with using a converter as a mixer?
2) I know condensers aren't the greatest when it comes to feedback and bleed, but can this be avoided given how small the venue is? For instance, one of the two bands is a jazz quartet. I think the ONLY think I'm going to amplify is the upright bass. Everything else should be sufficiently loud enough.
The first band has vocals, so I have the two dynamic microphones for the vocals, and maybe one guitar has a condenser. I hope this gives an idea about how small this venue is--a 50 person event in which the priority is mingling/talking over listening to the band.
