So I'm a singer/songwriter who wants to start busking ASAP.
I have to admit, im not amazing at guitar so I would like to have the option to plug in my guitar but also the option to play backing tracks from my ipad or phone whilst singing. I have a mic and cable, but I need help on what CHEAP amp/pa to get as well as power supply.
I also have no idea how I can plug my phone in to play tracks, ive done it on a full mixing board before, but im sure I'd need a different cable for this setup.
I really just want a basic and cheap setup for now, until I'm able to save a bit more.
Any advice would be so helpful. Bare in mind im a complete newbie and I don't know a lot that might seem like common knowledge.
For example some of my stupid questions are:
Can I just get one amp and plug my mic and guitar/or phone all into the same amp? Or do I need an amp for the guitar and then a pa for vocals?
Do I need to buy a mini mixer to plug in my phone and mic at the same time?
Do I need an adapter for the power supply? Or do they normally come with a plug socket?
Ahhhh
Im just so confused. Ive watched a lot of youtube videos on it and I still can't wrap my head around everything. I really need some help😅
