I'm no newbie to individual instrument amplification and have had experience as a film sound recordist, but I have no experience with designing a reasonably priced sound system for the Uke group that I am currently playing with.
I would appreciate some guidance for these parameters:
Group size: 12-20 (depends on the weather)
Playing environment: Mainly indoors (medium sized rooms) but sometimes outdoors.
Some of the players have their own amps but most do not or even own instruments with pickups.
1-4 serious lead singers so require voice mics. (I have always like the Shure SM58).
I'm thinking a PA, a small field mixer and 2-3 mics might be the most flexible way to go but would greatly appreciate all thoughts and advice from those who have faced the same requirements.
Cheers!
