We had an amazing evening performing at the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Mark Lacy. The dance floor filled up fast and never let up for 3 hours. We also provided sound and music for the ceremony which took place on a chily beach evening.
The room we played in was the Imperial Ballroom at the Grand Plaza Hotel in St. Petersburg, FL. It was one of the smallest rooms we’ve actually been in ever. Setting up was a fun puzzle to solve. However, the room size made us sound fantastic.
Our Behringer self powered speakers are already very full sounding. Having the smaller confines allows these powerful speakers to be used at 50% capacity in a room this size. The sound was incredible all evening.
We added some extra keyboards for additional sounds, like keyboard drums, synths and other instrument patches.
The dance floor was basically directly in front of the pianos, however so was the bar. Which made dancing and drinking easy for the guests while requesting tunes for us to play.
The B-player piano always has less on top of it. I run a busy show.
In this photo, I just want to point out a few things that I use to run the show. In the shell its the Yamaha MOX8 synth keyboard. This machine alone contains thousands of useful sounds. None of which I use.
On top of the shell is a small 49 key M-Audio USB keyboard controller. I used this for drum patches and synths as well. On the mic stand is my iPad 2 which I use as a mixer screen for the Behringer XR12 mixer. In front of the M-audio keyboard is the DJ control module for DJ Pro which runs on the Mac Book Pro.
