It is rare to find a FOH engineer that goes down into the technical detail....Keep going deeper!! Thanks
What a genius setup! And I love the fact that you are willing to share your knowledge on this topic. Great stuff!
That delaythrow on the vocal was insane!
Awesome video, dude. It's amazing how much live sound has changed over the years.
This is great mate, love to see it!
Absolutely love this kind of content - I just play drums but have always been very fascinated with the stuff you guys do and the way you all implement tech, which I why I break Danny Olesh' balls so much haha - Great stuff mate
Love this dude
DUDE!! That shit is rad! I'd love learn your skills. Thank you!
NL mix is excellent live, you do a great job 🤘🏻🔥
Thank you 😊
Thanks for this vid mate! Very informative.
Woah. this is like a lighting console programming.
super super smart. What a great rig
I don’t know the band for which you’re mixing, and that’s not really my thing, but it obviously allows for a lot of creativity. It can’t be that easy to make a coherent mix with the clips I heard, but you are doing it well. I love watching people do great work regardless of the style.
This is awesome. Never thought of using UAD live mainly because Waves seem to dominate. Would love it if you can provide some content around that.
Both excel at different things IMO. UAD is better at emulations and ‘flavours’. Waves has better audio tools and effects.
But uad live is discontinued right ? How to use it in a proper way ? Need a old macbook with a specific version of Mac OS ?
@@yannd3b yep - I have a Mac mini 2012 running High Sierra, alongside a Mac mini M1 for Waves
Mixing live is crazy
I see a Reaper user, I Subscribe!! good stuff
Man - that DAW is insane with the amount of functionality. Got a workflow problem? Yeah, just create a solution. Crazy.
@@dylanmaudioexactly! Your mind is the limit with Reaper. I've been having so much fun with the CSI 3.0 extension and customizing how my X Touch integrates with custom actions
Sick. So so sick.
Love your shit mate😍
Dylan is the man!
Thanks for sharing.
I’m just a little bit confused. Does A&H allows group to group patching ?
I imagine Dylan is returning those groups to a pair of channels and then routing those out to the master drum group
Thank you for sharing, awesome setup ! I assume you don't have issue latency because? If I'm correct you have external processing on tracks, busses and master, so it could basically triple your latency ?
Yes you’re right. My drums pass through UAD 3 times before outputting through the master. Low latency protocols help, along with running at 96khz. I’ve been running this same mix setup for quite a while now, with no perceivable latency. I should really measure it! But I would imagine total RTL is 10-15ms
Can I ask you a question that I don't understand?
In the video you show us the structure of subgroups and masters, do you have the console configured as groups to groups?
When you tell us that you have a Band Master, one for vocals and one for tracks, what do you mean?
Greetings and thanks for these videos!
Yeah! I like to cheat my way through group-to-group mixing - on any console!
And this is the part i dont understand! Group to group in dlive is not posible!!
Thanxs for your replay.
Hello, Dylan! I'm trying to do the same with Reaper and an A&H Avantis, could you share your Reaper project or make a specific video? Thank you so much!
@@dressink you just have to think outside of the box a little bit - or even like an analog signal flow mentality!
Plug the output of a group into an input channel, then route that input channel into a group again :)
Be aware though, this will add a small amount of latency (as it does for other consoles that DO allow bus-to-bus routing such as Digico)
@@phantomkik yeah cool! Maybe I can do a video to explain the methods I ended up with. I’m still learning but Reaper is very useful given all the custom commands you can make.
How much pre-show time did you have for building the midi triggers and mix?
That’s how I do it….
