I needed a quick solution, so I bought this cheap USB lamp that has a long extension cord in the meantime. It has 8 leds, not bad for less that 10 dollars
I see… I apreciate your help. I thought that this lamp could be perfect for carrying to gigs. I hate to not be able to see the mixer. But for the meantime I will use a common flash light, I bought a usb led lamp also
I agree, I hate not seeing the mixer as well.
Although like mentioned before if your laptop is close to the mixer and you have a free USB port then you can purchase a USB based light.
Another trick would be to steal a glow stick from concession (provided they are available) and just set it on the top of the mixer.
There are also those book lights that can be purchased and easily set about to help.
