Me and my friends that are in a semi improvised Electronic Hip hop act have this idea.
We have a friend that has kind of doe it already which is to build a portable battery powered speaker into a brief case..
Obviously everything will have to be 12v which actually makes it pretty interesting as you could easily throw solar power into the mix to recharge/power it depending on the weather.
What makes it complex is it would have to have an extremely simple mixer with lets say 4x mic inputs with at leat gain control (of some sort), 2 line inputs and possibly a D.I . . .
Ho realistic is this? could you have 4 mic pre's powered from 12v?
I was looking at a very noob and simple way of making portable speakers using the super cheap 40watt amps you can get from China and such and then simply buying a seperate 12v battery with charger and plugging that in. It would be simple enough to break down and rebuilt some old Hi Fi speakers into a brief case or some box with the battery and amp. This is a very easy way for me to do it without any electronics experience. The difficult part is we will just have stereo line level in. As its got to be a "Jamm Box" we need all kinds of things plugged in. So would there be a simple way to perhaps use the amp and battery from China and somehow work a basic mixer into the equation? No Phantom power or anything just for dynamics..
I am really excited about this idea and cannot wait to get out on the road making beats all night in all kinds of places . . .
