RE: [Harp-L] Best PA setting to play with band REDUX

["brian.irving" <brian.irving@xxxxxxxxx>]

Anybody used an ART pre amp (or similar) to beef up the sound into a pa?  A
lot of my local venues are too small to accommodate my Sonny Cruncher.

I didn't mention this in my previous post, but maybe your soundman wouldn't
have such a fit if you showed up with an amp modeler of some sort.  Those
are easy to handle onstage and at the board compared to a mic'd amp.
