For a marching band I am a part of, we have several instruments miced, and I would like to use some compression (and I think a gate as well) on several of the mics, because of the "thump thump" that the vibes/marimbas make that is rather unpleasant. The school has a Mackie mixer that has a nice little cart thing, but they don't have any compressors. I have a compressor/gate I could bring, but that would be another thing to keep safe/secure/undamaged since there is no rack to mount it in. I also have a Yamaha 01V that I could take, that has onboard compressors/gates that I could also use. I would have to find a good case for it, as I haven't done that yet but I do plan on it. What would you do? Thanks.
