Hi,
I have been contacted by a guy that hosts an open mic at a bar. He has asked if I could come set up and offer to record the players that come to his open mic. I was wondering if anyone had any advice, tips, etc on how much to charge each person that wants to be recorded and what equipment should I use, such as compression, reverb, etc....

I have a Mackie 1620 Onyx, 16 channel Mic Splitter, 100' 16x4 stage snake. I am just planning on recording the Stereo Mix only. So, any tips on how to get a decent quality stereo mix would also be appreciated. I am pretty new to all of this and am still learning.

Thanks!
