    Hi Fluff,
    Thanks for explaining your rig. It was quite insightful!
    Could you explain the signal chain for the noise supressor and why do you need an extra pedal instead of using the helix' noise supressor?
    I see that this video is "old" and this brings me to the second question.
    Do you still uses the extra noise supressor?
    I tried to find this information in your videos but I didn't have any success, that's why I decided to ask!
    Thanks a lot and keep up your amazing work! Love your videos!

  • @TwoSidesofMe

    No drum mic’ing for the ears? Do you just send them straight to FOH?

    • @FanaticDrummer
      @FanaticDrummer 4 года назад +1

      Two Sides of Me I’d rather just have a mix coming out of the mixer with the band. No drums. Pre-mix and fx drum micing never sounds good. Just muddies the in ear mix and the ambient sound of your kit which is definitely audible playing over the band mix. A throne thumper is good for kicks. Although I would never use stage wedgies or rely on ambient noise for drums. You have to hear the band in your ears even without drum micing

    • @glennmontis4372
      @glennmontis4372 4 года назад

      Same question here. Fluff, as a guitar player, how are you getting drums into your IEM?

    • @FanaticDrummer
      @FanaticDrummer 4 года назад +3

      Glenn Montis Honestly for a stage that small for most of their gigs, and since theres no loud amps behind the players, you could hear the acoustics over the in ears im sure. Its no different than a large practice space band set up. No stage noise, just drums. Which leaves the in ears at a safe volume.

    • @TotalEvo7
      @TotalEvo7 3 года назад +2

      However, its always beneficial to have drums in your ears, even if the volumes are down to a bare minimum, wouldn't hurt. If I were a drummer, I would have a decent drum mix, and work the rest of the instruments around that.
      For you musicians doing your own mixes, start with your instrument first to get an adequate level, and then add the others and work your mix around it.

    Fluff should check out the The Fryette LXII Single Space Tube Power Amp. The world’s first 1-space all-tube stereo 50W/channel power amplifier, that can be bridged for 100W mono.
    Then again, without micing the cabs there probably wouldn’t be much advantage to having tube power. But the front row fans would love it.

    Wasn't this the gig that was supposed to be accross the street at gas monkeys outdoor gig but the weather was bad? I love the indoor gas monkey venue that's shown here. I saw Circa Survive with MeWithoutYou there and Anthony green walked into the front doors before the gig and I was the only one to notice so I walked next to him and exchanged a few words. I might have thrown my arm over his shoulder like we were best buddys......yeah....lol but he was crazy nice about it. That was such a great show since I love both circa survive an Mewithoutyou, the people I was with didn't think they liked mewithoutyou bit after their set they realized what an amazing g band they were. Such great energy that night. I left soaked in sweat, as I've said before, only some of it was mine. I caught a cold walking from the venue to my car cause the temp had dropped and I was dressed in shorts an a t shirt but I bought a circa survive hoodie but it was so soaked in sweat it didn't help lol. I lost my voice for a week.

I funny recall you mentioning that tidbit before. I like how under high gain the individual string clarity, roundness of the bottom end, the snarl it gives in the mids, and how the treble strings arent so chimy/bright but still poke through. The response and dynamics i feel when i dig in is just like a passive(as designed). And not muddy/sizzly. More spanky/really shows the character of the strings

    I know most of the live sound is direct from the helix but is that orange pedal baby powerful enough to push that 810 and create any volume? I love the idea for my bass rig but I feel like 100 watts wouldn't push a bass cab like a 500 watt amp does.

    Put a small, battery powered LED strip with some 3M tape in the guitar case that you can flip on and off so you don't have to keep a flashlight on hand for the luminlays. It'll just keep them charged while you swap guitars in and out. Idk if this will actually work or be practical, but I just felt like throwing the idea out there.
