Hi
I am new to this and am having trouble getting enough volume from my microphones. They are plugged into the desk, routed through a graphic equaliser (which has boosted the volume) and into a 1000 watt power amp!
What I can't understand is I can get CD's music as loud as I want this way (I hard have to touch the amp volume) I can also get the microphones really loud when I plug them directly into my tiny 100 watt amp.
Why even when the volume of the 1000 watt power amp is on full are they still too quiet (I have the same problem when I use this configaration through my 400 watt power amp too!
What am I missing? Should I use microphone pre-amps or am I not doing something right?
This is probably a very basic question, but I am new and really need help!!!
Thanks
