If you all wonder whether your advice is taken seriously, I can tell you that your guidance (reference the thread "A Truly Fine Vocal Mic") has led me to purchase the Neumann KMS-105 and it's on the way. It won't be here in time for my gig on Thursday, so I'll be using an SM-58 with an inexpensive Carvin 6 Channel 200 watt mixer and two 12" speaker cabinets.
In the future, what would you recommend for a truly fine PA system with monitors (in ear or not) to attach my Neumann to? Here's the application: one or two acoustic guitars w/vocals (The acoustics would plug in with their own pickups). One portable stage piano (Yamaha P-140). Possibly a drum machine (or an occasional small trap drum set - not miced). Perhaps the occasional horn player who drops by to sit in for a couple of songs.
Size of the venue? Varies, but small club size with tables or small hall for weddings would be possible.
Style music: Think jazz standards, acoustic folk, ballads, and great harmonies.
What system would you like to run for this group?
Regards,
Mike Gilles
