Mrgeeze, in your other thread I mentioned using stereo files. Here's why:

I understand most PA's are mono but that's not what I'm talking about. Having a L+R stereo file allows you with a small separate mixer to adjust the levels of both sides BEFORE they go into your PA. I would start with just the bass on one side and everything else on the other. This is the lazy mans version of using multitracks on a gig. The bass is usually the biggest problem because of different acoustics in various venues. Your tracks can sound awesome at home yet at the gig the bass is booming or, maybe it too thin. Adjusting the EQ on the PA will help but not as much as having the bass in it's own channel on a mixer with EQ control before it hits the PA. Most inexpensive two channel mixers don't have tone controls so you'll probably need an 8 channel one but that's easy enough to check online. For me I wound up putting the drums and bass in one channel because I found cymbals can be annoyingly loud in some cases and turning down the highs for the cymbals doesn't affect the bass much and if the bass guitar is booming so is the kick.

The other trick I mentioned is set up your PA in your house and mix your tracks that way. That will also get you closer to how it sounds on a gig.
