    Live drums through PA

    I am going to be playing in bars very soon with a new classic rock band. I will be mic'ing up my kick, snare, and each of the three toms individually. I will be plugging them into our 6 channel PA amp head. The vocals will also be plugged into this head. The amp has a 20ish-band master EQ...

    Generic Drum Reverb

    "Sound Enhancer"?

    I recently came across a device called a "Sound Enhancer" made by Acoustic Research. Basically, it hooks up to any audio device and enables you to hear sound more detailed. It brings out those tracks that have been lost in the mix. Here is more info about it...
