Model details

A powered QSC array starting system with 4 KLA12 tops, 2 KLA181 subs, 3 QSC K12 monitors and a Behringer X32 console. The 16-input band kit includes 4 SM58 vocals, 1 Beta 52A kick, 3 SM57 for snare and guitar amps, 3 Sennheiser e604 tom mics, 2 SM81 overheads, 2 Radial JDI and 1 J48 DI for bass and stereo keys. Matching clips, three tom mounts, 10 microphone stands, stage signal and instrument patch leads, and phantom power are included. The optional expanded kit adds 2 SM58 vocals, an SM57 snare-bottom mic, an SM81 hi-hat mic, 2 J48 DI channels and four stands: 17 microphones plus 5 DI channels (22 stage inputs). It requires a 24-input/eight-return snake or verified digital stage I/O. Stereo mains and three independent monitor mixes need at least five returns. Input kit selection is independent of speaker and stage size. The base uses a 24-input/eight-return analog snake. Array support, powerCON mains and loops, power distribution, cable routes and tuning are specified for the site by a system technician. Send the stage plot, input list, audience footprint, speaker positions and venue power locations. Delivery, setup, tuning, strike and show-time mixing are optional services.

Typical uses: Live bands · Venue-planned array coverage · Events needing three separate stage monitor mixes
