The microphones we wanted to buy need the expensive 6k$ Wireless Receiver to work :(. Maybe Kyle or Andy can chime in and tell us if there is something we could do? The other alternative if we don't trust our audio gear would be to rent some for the mini-conf. > We should also get the mixer that's at Andy's place so we can use it. Our DPL is planning to come to the mini-conf and irrc he resides in Cambridge. Maybe we could ask him if he can mule the mixer for us? -- pollo
