Going to stay away from the hookers and blow, and focus more on the actual gear in this installment of roadie chat. I'm hoping that our boys shawndavid and shalimar stop by to help us out as we discuss the Behringer XENYX 1202FX and what you should couple it with for a really basic front of house setup for a small group of gigging musicians dabbling in electrified performance.
Which is to say that my Dad picked one of these bad boys up at guitar center, and I'm wondering if he's ok just plugging the output into a guitar amp. I'm also wondering what kind of outlay he's looking at if he decides to instead run it into a basic amp and a pair of speakers. They're usually about a six piece playing irish music, so we're probably looking at mostly picking up vocals or unamplified instruments (violin, squeeze box, mandolin) to mix in with separately amped guitars and bass.
