I definitely favor a big fat tone. In my experience, the low frequencies are way less apparently the farther away from your amp you get, so what...
In my experience it's not the size of the drums, it's the cymbals. Nobody ever goes "this mix is fubar because the kick drum is bleeding into...
i use Y cables to split my XLR cables from my helix to the main mixer and then also to my personal mixer for my IEMs. works fine.
I think the issue with stage volume is less about instruments and more about wedges blasting sound all over the stage. Assuming we're talking...
Like anything else, there are logistical/equipment concerns, but it definitely works. You just have to be realistic. You have to know how to set...
I know i've posted this a million times, but is there any whispering as to when we'll get a dual-IR block? I feel like it's very limiting on the...
Agreed. When i mix down the multitracks of our shows, i usually have to add a bit of highs back in. But for live purposes in a loud band? It's...
it's also so so important to be in control of your own monitoring mechanism. Nothing worse than dialing in everything, only to be at the mercy of...
My story was similar to yours. Was skeptical at first, but as soon as I tried it, it worked great. I use it exclusively in my helix. For me,...
correct. i use it as extra spice when playing leads and hitting those money notes. Always nice to just stomp on the freqout and have the note...
and even then, in the digital world you could simply make an alternate snapshot/scene/preset with different gain-staging to compensate for...
it's a skill like anything else. Chris Lord-Alge almost exclusively hard pans, LCR - style. It can be a good way to free up space in the middle...
if your base tone is good (IE not too shrill or woofy), then doing phasey/microdelay/micropitch stuff is only going to make things less distinct....
cant go wrong with KZ buds.
Currently I'm running some KZ zs7 buds, which have noticeably warmer (less icepick) highs than the previous KZ models. Running them off an...
What track is the noise gate or compressor affecting? Most of the time, we would just close-mic the drum and actually use that signal. If you're...
Lots of components in this chain. Are you using the same earbuds at home to test your tones? If you're using big fat headphones at home, and then...
That depends on how you have your effects set up.
People keep saying that big clubs and stages are 'always' mono, but is that really true anymore? Before I went to a stereo setup, people kept...
This is where I'm at as well. Having a pair of 1x12 guitar cabs (with cab sim turned off) on stage behind me is like a security blanket. It just...
i've been using LED strips all over my board and my rack for a long time, and have never experienced any noise. That said, i keep a pretty simple...
This thread is why i play a modeller, all the routing options are in-the-box and you don't have to rob peter to pay paul with your cabling and...
I've never taken a DB meter to my amp, but I can definitely say that I play quieter than I used to, mainly due to having IEMs now. I'll never do...
Pretty much. The popular opinion has shifted to where people have admitted to themselves that in many ways there is just no simulating the...
*deep breath* PLAYBACK MEDIUM IS THE MOST UNDER-APPRECIATED PART OF THE CHAIN. The human ear is a VERY complicated mic. Plus you have two. And...
