Most clubs and other live music venues will be mostly matte black, you may need to pin up something to project onto Laundry sack full of clean white sheets XLR to miniphone cable for the microphone Nothing in the little baggie is used in the setup described here, but bring along extra parts and little bits for on the fly configurations and emergency set-up changesĪ long (mine is 100FT) VGA cable with built in 3.5mm audio, video MUST be high quality, audio is less important here but if you're going to invest in a long, expensive cable you may aswell get one you'll be able to use for something elseģ.5mm audio extension cable, again audio quality isn't super important but there's no reason to buy a bad one, they're cheap To cut the edges off the projection and hold cables in place Screwdrivers and a knife should be all you need to fix any little hiccups with any cable or the mic stand, a flashlight will come in handy cuz it will be dark and you will need to seeĬlipboard makes you look legit, write down all you winamp shortcuts and presets here for reference, post-its on the laptop for frequently used keys Nothing big or fancy, just enough to pump the mic up to a strong line level input for winamp to use I use: A Sharp Notevision XG-C55X with the short-throw wide angle lensĪnything that will pick up the beat of the music will work, a shotgun mic for a camcorder would be perfect Ideally: almost anything will do, as long as its bright and of reasonably high resolution, Remote is very good to have but not completely necessary I use: a Lenovo Thinkpad T61, not quite hefty enough but works kind of, again if you don't want it to crash in the middle of a show you'll need a fast computer, I'd say at least 2ghz preferably faster and if you want smooth video you'll need a graphics card with 8 or 10 mb of dedicated memory (you can find more on system specs in the software documentation links on the last step) Ideally: something fast with dedicated graphics A windows laptop, with Winamp and Milkdrop (included in the winamp download)
