Tips'n'Tricks

We thought it may be useful to put down some of the advice and tips useful to running a live show. These can be applied when you are designing your own rig and you're not sure what equipment (and how much of it) is required. We are also always available to give advice or answer questions.
If you are starting from scratch and would like to understand the basics then take a look at our tutorials on PA Systems or Stage Lighting. Also new is a section of advice for Gigging Bands where you can find solutions to many of the common problems found at gigs.
So, here we go, and we'll add to this list as we go. If you have any good tips yourself, why not drop us a line and we'll add it in too! Also feel free to mail us with any technical questions and we'll try our best to answer them for you.
