Yes. A wide range of things, most of which sound kind of cheesy but the reverb and delays are fine. As far as mic'ing guitars, we have the mics and the channels and the capabilities if need be, but if you're bringing a half-stack chances are that it will stand in the room on its own, allowing the mains to have more room to produce the vox and kick. It's bare bones but works fine if you're not trying to play your amps at 10. Snare and toms cut through alright. The main problem with the room is the wash between a tinny guitar tone and the cymbals. Hooray for mirrors everywhere on the ceiling.

If this is going to end up being a huge production with the recording and criss-crossing of PA equipment I may even ask them to open at 4...maybe not for business but to at least allow ample time to set up everything.


I totally agree, it's not worth putting the guitars through the PA, any amp worth it's weight in salt can be heard well in the room. As fas as snare/toms.. i think they CAN be heard, and i plan on having MINE heard, but i think a big part of that is where you're setting up the drums. I set mine up on the side, in front of the amps. And that gives them a much better chance of being heard. (You can turn the amps up, you can't turn the drums up.) Also you gotta whale on the drums, which is also up to the drummer.

With all that in mind for the drums, and some common sense for where you put the amps in relation to where the band members stand, you should have a workable stage sound for the band, and you'll have the potential for a great overall sound.
