Coffeehouse Sound System
 

Our sound system now consists of a 12 channel mixer board with phantom power.  It is located directly in front of the stage, about 15 feet across the aisle and against the wall.  Eight channels are permanently cabled up to the stage; with advance notice we can run cables for the other channels, or you can bring your own cables. 

The monitors are connected to the board so that each channel can be individually controlled (for monitor volume). 
A skilled sound operator is often available, but please ask in advance if you want to be sure.

Venue Basics for Interested Musicians

Our format is flexible, but generally consists of two one hour sets with a half hour break between the sets. 

Music starts at 7:30 pm on Saturday nights and the night winds down around 10 pm (give or take), but the building is usually open from 5 pm so access for early set up is available, and we can arrange to be here earlier if there is a need to do so.  Saturday is currently the only night that we are open for music, but we are discussing doing monthly 'youth oriented' performances on Friday nights...nothing in concrete on that at this point.

There is an 8 track/channel (?) sound system available, so if you are a single that doesn't require more than that you won't need to bring your own sound equipment if you prefer not to. (Gee, didn't 8 tracks go out in the 80s? and 'channel' is one of those 'red alert' catchwords in the Christian vernacular...so maybe I'm not getting the terminology right). We do accommodate the use of tape or cd backup if that is the format you use.  Ok, I'm the computer geek and NOT the sound tech dude, but I can get any other specifics you need to know if you contact me :-)

Funding is on a donation basis here and we do not have a large budget for the musical guests, but we will be glad to discuss your needs if you are interested in playing at the coffeehouse. 

It is acceptable to bring your cds or books, etc. to offer for sale.

Dates that have been scheduled are already up on the Music Schedule page, so if you are interested in booking a date, just check that page.  Anything that is not shown with a group listing is open.  I fill the dates in usually within a day or two of confirming them, so the schedule page will be quite accurate.

See contact page if you need further information or would like to request a time to visit and share your gift with us.

 

Note:  If you are a musician looking for other venues in this general area, please check the "Links" page for other coffeehouses in Wisconsin.

Also, if you know of other venues in the area that are not listed in our links, we would love to have the information so that we can update our resources.  Thanks.
