could this be used to perform at small gigs? like festivals, pubs, bars, etc?

Definitely i used mine for everything until i upgraded. Practice, recording, performing. It works fine for all, one gripe though. Its a bit quiet when performing outside, requiring you to put your mouth really close. Other than that it's a great mic. Durable, sounds good.

The answer is yes. This is a versatile mic. I have used it in both small and large venues. It's also good for some recording applications. Best bang for the buck as far as I'm concerned.

Yes it will function well for that purpose but, as others have said, it is an economical entry level mic. If your singing voice is your instrument you will want it to sound its best. As was already suggested, look into investing in the SM58.

This is an entry level Shure microphone, and while it won't blow you away like an SM58 will, it's a solid microphone to have in your lineup. It will handle singing okay, but the better application for it is spoken word.

Very Much So. I use my for many things. Music at parties, amp for guitars, key boards, and microphones for singing. I have purchased a set of 5 mic's. At parties plug in the mic's and let people sing along with the music. Well worth the money and has great sound. Hook up cell phone, computers, are even a jump drive to record or play music.

I have. It sounds fantastic for its small size. It's perfect for practicing alone or doing small street gigs. I sometimes use it with guitar and effects processors, but I primarily use it with a Microkorg synthesizer. I've put it through hell, and I can say that It still sounds pretty great at every frequency.

It's a pretty small amp, great for practice or relatively low-volume gigs, but I wouldn't use it in a bigger venue without miking it through a PA. It just doesn't have the power for a full-tilt electric band, but it is a nice little unit and well worth the price.

Yes. I only use mine to mix for karaoke. it has some issues. left and right channels are reversed. none of the onboard effects work though.

Hmmm then I would say no... if you are having bands you will need a full range system with subwoofer and top speakers or something larger than this. The Performer is for acoustic and small combo's. If you are having a full band and multiple people I would go a little larger.

It would, but it's more well suited for individual practice as it's a pretty small amp. Although if the venue is small enough it might be loud enough

I use it for a dance classroom at gym for about 100 people. If the 300 are just speaking/lecture kinda activity it would, i doubt it would work if its a loud crowd - NOTE: you also need a decent enough amp

To be honest I have no idea because I had only used it once for a concert lol I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

It would probably be overkill for a podcast, unless you're hosting a 5-piece band as part of your show. This mixer is really for full-band live performance. If you're looking for something to mix voice and some other sounds your best bet would be something with many fewer channels.

I would say yes. I use it for my digital drums. It carrys sound well.Make sure you have a good microphone. Background music from an iPod or iPhone will work well too.

Would work fine. I D-Jayed a wedding with 200 people with it. Put it in a suitcase with other equipment and then on a plane to Philadelphia. It worked great. Would be just fine for your venue. Compact and fairly powerful. I used a laptop for the music.

I am unsure of that. My husband used it to DJ a party in a banquet hall that held over 100 people. It did well but it was mainly for the dance floor area. Hope that helps.

Probably will work just fine. I wouldn't play an arena rock show with it, but in a cafe or other small space, no problem.

no...This is good for a single acoustic guitar and a single mic in a smaller venue...actually it is most excellent for that. Any more than that, this not what you are looking for. I like to run it on stage as sort of my personal monitor and run the "record/output" to the PA for the mix. I am considering adding the Bose Tone Match mixer and a second L1 for a coffeehouse type duet. The single L1 does much better when it is out in front of you pointing back towards you.

Absolutely. As long as this meets your power requirements you could do either small gigs without a PA, or large gigs where you just need stage volume. You may need to pair this with another cabinet for larger gigs if you do not have a PA for sound reinforcement.

This is a nice little amp, but it's probably not the right one for your needs. Technically, you could use it for metal... but I think you'd consider it a bit underpowered for that style of music.
