You preformed at my mam and dads wedding

[@benkilroy6616]

When is the collab happening

[@MrSamsstudios]

Great setup, I do similar stuff with a number of bands. What lighting poles did you use on the subs? How high can they go?

[@roxyskinflint22222]

What fixing did you use to mount the lights onto the subs?? Genius idea that

[@BrianMcDermottChannel]

Sorry for the delay...I'm not sure of the exact name but if you google 'M20 Threaded Mounting bracket' you should be able to find some...very handy!

[@jacobkelly2616]

Great stuff Brian! Do you ever use DI Boxes in your setup at all?

[@BrianMcDermottChannel]

The Bass player has his own before it gets to me and I don't think we need any for the keyboards. There's always a few in the van just incase!

[@garethdickie7213]

Nice setup! Do you power all the band gear from the rack? Do you have anything in there for power conditioning, like a Furman or something?

[@BrianMcDermottChannel]

Have a Furman in the rack which powers everything in it but the rest of the power comes directly from the wall sockets in the venue

[@gitarman666]

Built in FX, I don’t see outboard gear Or are you running plugins?

[@BrianMcDermottChannel]

All through the QU-16 at the minute 👍🏻

[@supplemarian]

Collab?

[@The_Engagements_wedding_band]

Do you ever get interference with the router in the rack?? We had our router in the rig but the wireless vocal mics started to cut out 🤷‍♂️

[@BrianMcDermottChannel]

Hi Ciaran...I've never had any problems with interference so far. The router is wired to the mixer so there isn't really anything in the rack to interfere with it.

[@sebastianbrook4160]

Hi Brian How did your band fund the equipment? I’m in a 7 piece party band with horns and we get a few weddings and private event gigs. Do you save money from each gig into a band account and just wait until you do enough gigs or does someone in the band own the equipment? Orrrr did you get a grant to fund stuff? I’d really like to upgrade our setup

[@BrianMcDermottChannel]

Hi Sebastian...sorry for the delay but only saw your comment now! I've been playing at weddings since 2006 so I've invested a bit each year. Usually, the summer months are busy so I buy some new equipment then 👍🏻

[@supplemarian]

Nice
