Hi,
At my school we have a room that doubles as a band room and as a place for small shows (usually student run fundraisers). The lighting system that we have in the room is almost dead, and has gotten to the point where it is unusable. I was wondering what companies have good, quality, yet still cheep equipment. I need a board (a 2 scene pre-set type thing would be fine, and I will only have 15 instruments in there at the most) and dimmers. I currently have an American DJ set, but I'd like to avoid them if at all possible.
The main instruments that will be used in the space are 12 500 watt fresnels, and possibly an occasional S4 par that I bring down from our main space (575 watt).
I'm looking to spend $1,000 or less on all this. It doesn't have to be a new, amazing board or dimmers, just something that I can work with. Any large shows will go on in the gym where we have our ETC board, dimmers, and S4's, but for the smaller, student run things it would be nice to have a better set-up.
Thanks guys. I really don't know what companies have good quality equipment at this level, so thats really what I want to know.
Thanks
