Advice on Sound Board for Theater
13 Replies
A theater I've had a play done at is sorely in need of a new audio board, and I'm wondering what others are using. I know Yamaha and Soundcraft for sure have some options, but there must be others. …

Greetings! I'm pleased to say I get to write for Stage Directions, and I'm actually working on a great feature about how to search for grants. I'm wondering -- does anybody out there have any storie…

I run a for profit school in Chicago. We have started a two year Conservatory program. The price is relativly inexpensive ($12,000 a year) but students can't get Federal loans. Does anyone have experience in finding grant money for a profit making s…
I loved the Anything Goes number too. What I don't get is why two songs not even in any show that's nominated this year (Memphis & Spider Man) were done??? WTH? Took time away from all the other nominated shows .... and felt like commercials!
Do you use it with a computer?
I personally own a 16.4.2 and can tell you that this is by far one of the best purchases I have made. The only drawback, in my opinion, is the lack of motorized faders. However, you can store fader positions in a scene and recall them via a 'Locat…
As a guy who has been at that piano, I say this is a great piece! I'd just add, "Say good bye and thank him/her."
We, a receptive theatre with about 500 different shows/year in 3 auditoria, kicked out all the advanced soundboards. When a show needs a specific board, we rent it. The only soundboards that are left are some simple analogue boards max. 12 in/ 4 out…
The software is downloaded from the Presonus site and is free. The app for the iPad is available at the apple app store and is also free. It include a demo mode that you can fiddle with without owning a Presonus Studio Live. It does run on a PC, but…
David -Not laughing! interesting contribution, great option. I will look into this. When you say "a computer" - Mac only? Is the software on board or do you download it? Do you know if PC software is available too?
All right, nobody laugh. We have been using a Presonus 16-4-2 for the last couple of productions and I've fallen in love. You can buy a 24 track version, or a 2 16 track versions and link them together to get 32 channels.
By itself it doesn't seem…
We are in the same shape - our old board's functions are failing, and we are looking for new options. We are a concert hall with a lot of different kinds of shows with inevitable last-minute adaptations. The times being as they are, the M7CL -which…

Hi. I was artistic director for the Summer Repertory Theatre at Blackburn College for 15 years. I am also the co-founder. We discovered early on that finding grants for seed money was really hard. After we were established we started getti…
I have been thinking about this & TheatreFace specifically for a couple of weeks. Wouldn't this be a great place to have a section where we could all post grant information? Just having a central location we could check periodically would seem like…
Also check out Gear Source for some really goods deals on audio and other production equipment.
Are they on a small budget? I have had a good experience with the Mackie TT24 digital console. While it may not have the best sounding effects, ect., it was a more affordable purchase for its intended use (intimate acoustic music series performed on…
Take a good look at the Soundcraft Vi series. We have had a Vi6 for 3 years in our 750 seat community theater and love it. I have mixed on both the Vi6 and the Yamaha M7CL -- no comaparison in ease of use and definatelyy no comparison in sound -- th…
