General Info

  • Remember that people will be moving in and out of workshops. The workshops should be as hands-on as possible.
  • The entire event should be family friendly  (evening has a more adult vibe but there still may be younger people around)
  • The volume level of workshops will need to be softer than the final performance since there are performances taking place nearby

We will have the following equipment:

  • 2 PA speakers- 2 (12 inch QSC tops) with 2 18in (QSC subs)
    • 1 mixer with at least 8 inputs: (Channel list below)
      • L ¼ in input (DJ turntable Mixer 1)
      • R ¼ in input (DJ turntable Mixer 1)
      • L ¼ in input (DJ turntable Mixer 2)
      • R ¼ in input (DJ turntable Mixer 2)
      • ¼ in cable to ⅛ (rotating iPad/laptop for share outs)
    • 2 Turntables and Rane Mixer — This is for the public to use
      • The public will use vinyl instead of Serato to keep things easier and avoid issues of computer glitches

*** IMPORTANT: Reflekeshin will need to bring his own set up for demo, workshops, and performance

  • 4 6ft rectangular Tables [ 2 tables on the grass stage — 1 table on left side for beatmaking — 1 table on right side for MC’ing]
  • One 4ft round Table – for Merchandise (CDs, tshirts etc.) by trees on concrete
  • 3 Mics & Mic stands Stands
  • 1 large post-it- note white board
    • We will have to share the post-it flip board with each of you but you can stick the large post its on the red wall behind the stage

As we discussed a while back, we will be videotaping portions of your workshop to share on our website for educational purposes

  • Let us know if there are any resources you would like us to include on the dedicated website for the “Make Hip Hop” area
