OK, from experience, I generally still post when I say I won't anyways, but it's a heads up. I'll try to updte this as regulally as I get new dates.

Dates:
23 April - Schools entry into BYB Rock Challange, might be a day even so I might be on.
13 July - School concert, loosing our head of music and musical director, so well be there late.
18 July - 1 august - In Spain, no wifi o local Internet cafe (I think)

unspecified dates:
another school concert between now and the 15th July
Early and late June, GCSE Exams.

That's all for now.

Concert wise and everything, I'm the lead sound technician (well technically not now but September, it's only a little difference)

Cool! So you like EQ everyone and make sure the everyone's mic'd up and wired in right? I've dabbled in engineering before, it's seriously complicated stuff. How you manage to keep everything straight is beyond me. =P

The fact is, myself (and my team,) are the youngest and biggest team in the schools history, plus were on a brand new desk, brand new mics and equipment, using more and more equipment (such as laptops for FX and so on) and having to sound check it and set it up all in about 3 hours or less, with no actuall training under our collective belt

What programs do you use for audio effects and stuff? Are you using like a live coordination program like MainStage?

Do you run them through any program, or just play them through itunes or some other playback device?

Generally we edit them using the Adobe CS4 Web Premium software, or Audacity, then just run them through WS Media Player
