Want to add more speakers and using driverack...

My 5 piece band has a gig coming up for a festival, we will be playing in a beer tent. Not sure yet how big the tent is or how many people are expected. Anyway, i think it would be a good idea to combine the speakers and subs that another bandmember and I own.

 

Here is what we use in the bars:

 

2 Peavey SP5's powered with 500 watts a side

1 or 2 Yamaha club subs powered with 300 watts a side

A Mackie board

and my bandmate's dbx driverack (not sure what model)

 

Is there a way we can add his powered Ion tops and powered subs into the chain and still utilize the driverack?

 

If not what is the best way to combine the systems?

Don't bother.


If it's a huge area, you could use the Ions for outfills or as delay speakers, but IMO it'll end up being way more trouble than it's worth.

 

 

Probably true.

 

I wouldn't bother myself. If you don't have enough gear to do it right (and understand what you are doing), I would recommend hiring this out. It will be more fun for all of you.
