Given that you need a vocal mike (for vocals or
introductions) your PA needs to be able to amplify your chosen instrument as
well.
In the case of acoustic guitars, this can either be done by using
another microphone or, if it is an electro-acoustic guitar, it can be
connected directly into the PA. However, if the electro acoustic just has a
standard jack output then it must first go though a DI (Dir ect Injection) box
before connecting the XLR output of the DI box to the XLR (mike) input on the
PA mixer. If you don't do this the guitar will sound very thin and lifeless.
Please see
connecting acoustic guitars in the advice centre.
We would recommend that you go for a mixer with built in digital effects
(like reverb). This keeps the system nice and simple and you don't have to
buy a separate effect unit. Some small PA system packages are below, but you can
easily upgrade if you need to. Why not try our package designer? |
