Sound System Details
Our system is self contained and does not require any additional equipment.
For events where the sound system is provided please note the information below:
- The band uses a passive splitter. The splitter has a 15ft snake which is located on stage between the drummer and bass player. IMPORTANT TO LOOK AT the distance from the house input from the band splitter to make sure it will reach. The system allows for signal pass-through to alternative systems (using a splitter) enabling “house” systems to control a “main mix” while the band controls the stage mix via the in-ear system. In most cases the band if self-contained and does not require any outside help with monitoring.
- The band brings it’s own cables
- The band will use “SOUND COMPANY’S” mic stands
- Note #5 input is not passed (it’s the click track)
- Do Not Use Phantom Power.
- The band may bring their own amps / monitors.
Stage monitors / monitor mix: The band does not require stage monitors but will use them with our existing in-ear system when applicable. The band is not going to complain having more sound options on stage. We want to point out that there is no requirement for a dedicated monitor mix or monitor person.
Like any sound system there are limitations but also options. The 10Til2 main sound system can support most events with an audience from 500. Our system can be expanded to support even bigger audiences. Contact us to learn more.

Electrical Requirements
Electrical requirements can be tricky to estimate since most of us are NOT electricians. The good news is the band does not require that much power but here’s a few things to note:
Have a couple dedicated outlets just for the band. Try to avoid plugging multiple items all through one outlet or room (not on the same circuit).
Make sure the electrical is grounded. This is one of the most important things to note. Some older homes and buildings do not have the ground which can be dangerous to both the equipment and people.
When running cables look for water, cracks, tripping hazards, etc.
For large events please contact to discuss.
Inside / Outside (Weather / Elements)
The band can perform indoors or outside. When playing outside things such as noise level, weather & elements can play a part.
High wind, rain, cold, heat, even smoke can cause issues or a forced cancellation. We suggest having a backup plan if possible when planning outdoor events. What if it rains or extremely high winds what’s the plan…? In most cases performing outside just requires some shade.
Regardless of inside or outside, try to avoid foot traffic from moving in / around the band equipment.
Sound Level / Noise Ordinance
With 10Til2 the sound level is as easy as your phone up or down. Our 100% electrical system with no acoustic drums makes this possible. Sound levels can play a big part in making your event a success. Be sure to check with the venue / location for any sound level requirements. Additionally, many outdoor events have a specific time or DB noise limits.
Permits
Some locations will require a permit(s) for hosting live music. Permits may pertain to specific dates, location, dB levels, and other details. The band is not responsible in obtaining these permits.
Band & Public Safety
The band requires some level of safety depending on the event. The band has the right to pull out of event when safety of the band or the public is at risk. We work with all our clients to address safety needs. There’s never been an issue in the 20 years, but we have to state that safety is a big factor for the band.
Access
Sometimes just getting to the performance area can be a challenge. Please contact the band for any unique situation such as the need to use multiple stairs, elevators, gondolas, boats, etc… No access or extreme difficult access can limit or force cancellation.
Music &Song List
10Til2’s deep song catalog enables the band to customize the music for each event. Keep it mellow or get them up and dancing, the song selections can make a big impact.
Backing tracks: Backing tracks are previously recorded instrument tracks that can be played along with the song. 10Til2 does use backing tracks on some songs (e.g., keyboards) to better represent the song.
Song Requests: Do you have a special song or maybe it’s a set of songs you want the band to cover, possible? Yes, of course but it really depends on the song and what is required to get it to performance ready status.
Additional Services:
- MC – Sometimes you need a MC at your event to help deliver important information throughout the event.
- Music / DJ /Break – Music plays a big part at many events but what about when the band is not on stage or playing? Before, breaks, after – who provides music during those times? Yes, we can help here too!
- Event Video – The band provides HD Video of the event performance.
Additional – storage, parking, green room, dress code,etc…
- Band parking – The band will need to have access to drop off gear (as close as possible) and have parking. In most cases (3 car spots).
- Cases, carts, etc. are stored close to or on-stage.It’s a positive having a secure, safe and dry area to store these items.
- Green Room / Band Area. At some events our clients like to have a dedicated area for the band. This is not required but we are happy to discuss where you would like the band to be during the event.
- Dress code: Please note any dress code at time of contract.
- Food / Drink: Many of our clients love to offer the band food and drinks (THANK YOU). We always want to make sure that when and where the band eats/drinks that it does not cause any issues with the event. Please note at time of contract.
We want more music – (Can you just keep playing?)
We address additional music options in our contracts. We would be happy to discuss different options when it comes to play times and extended play times.
Payment, Taxes, Donations
All payment and tax information will be noted in the contract. In most cases deposits are paid at time of booking, final payment paid day of event before performance.
Tips / Donations are always accepted. We do offer and at times promote a band “tip jar” during a performance. If you like the band to NOT promote tipping, please let us know at time of booking.
Cancellations or Not Playable Environment:
Cancellations happen, we understand – here are a few guidelines to note.
Cancellations under contract will specify any cancellation fee required. This is made clear so both parties understand when they can cancel and what that may cost.
What could cause a cancellation or not playable environment? This could be rain, high winds, extreme cold or heat, smoke at the time of the event. Additionally, not having the correct permit, venue requirements, legal interaction / police may cause an event to be cancelled.
