    my Band is keen to start recording and gigging. I'm wondering what would be a good quality, affordable PA that would be up for gigging, and what microphone would be best for capturing our amp and drum sounds. Well be recording onto a BR600. i heard about some model from shure?? i also heard that its best to record with alot of dead, sound-absorbing material around. can anyone with a bit of knowledge offer some tips??

    Everything PA depends on your budget. No point recommending a €5k rig if you won't spend over €500.

    I'm not gonna waste your time here by showing you stuff you cant/wont afford, so I'll assume you just want to do it like most other rock bands and just buy anything that works rather than hold out for something better. In which case, the world is your oyster for cheap and cheerful stuff, this has been covered numerous times before so have yourself a gander and arm yourself with some nuggets of information.
