I am a mobile DJ who is very familiar with different "DJ" related mixer board and have some fair amount of knowledge in other types of sound reinforcement.
A few years back I was asked to provide sound for a comedy show. All I needed to provide was a mic, speakers, and intro music.
Since then I have been the "sound technician" for all of these events, but now the comedy show has swelled in attendance from 100 to 450 and I feel that my "DJ" mixer and "mic/line" rackmount mixer is not professional enough for this purpose. Also, I have increased the speakers (Bose L1, Model 1) to 4 units instead of 2, positioned in the front and middle of the house.
My normal chain has been as follows
Mic Mixer > DJ Mixer (Pioneer DJM-800) > BOSE L1 (1) > Bose L1 (2) > Bose L1 (3) > Bose L1 (4) all daisy chained together via XLR cables.
I usually have 3 mics on the mic mixer.
Is there a more professional way of doing this. I seem to be experiencing limiter problems (Bose cutting out, then sound returning) so I am not sure this configuration is the right way of doing things.
Suggestions?
