The machine has a 1970s McIntosh MC2105 amp paired with a Marantz 3800 preamp, giving top analog warmth you can’t get from digital. Our sound start is with the known Neumann U47 mic going through a well-fixed Neve 1073 preamp.

Vinyl Play and DJ Tools

• We use Technics SL-1200MK2 turntables for real vinyl sound, known for top steady speed and low mess-up.
• Live acts like our old Roland Space Echo RE-201, giving well-known tape delay effects needed for voice shows.

Open Mic Rules

Open Mic Show Rules

• Our top sound machine has a Shure SM58 voice mic mixed with a vintage 1970s Mackie analog mixer.
• Singers must stay 6-8 inch from the mic for best voice catch and low near sound effect.

• Direct Input (DI) Boxes: Two ready for electrified tools
• Condenser Mic: One for sound tools
• Effects setup customized by style for the Old Lexicon Effects Unit

Planning ahead and following these rules ensures best sound for all shows.
