It is a pity, I suppose our schedules beat us all. I have been
similarly busy finishing two books and organising LURadio Live 2006.

So long as we have a mixer with 4 - 6 mics which can plug into a small
line-in socket on a laptop, we will be fine.

A few questions:

- Is the mixer available on the desk where we are sat? I will need to
be close by so I can mix and plug it into my laptop.

- Can you get a list of the sound equipment in the Carpa room?

I will bring my simple small mixer anyway and some converter plugs for mics.
