    Oh god I can't stand when bands act like this during soundcheck. If you just let the soundman own the stage everything goes so smoothly. I love when they let me go through everything in FOH then we go back to monitors after. Great job on the video!

      +Matthew Garcia I hear ya that is my life story!? 5 days week year round! Not all bands are this way.. but most of the time it is cover bands...When your on a national tour its not the band members that you have to deal with it is the Tour Mangagers.. It actually says in their job description to act like the bad guy... to keep people on their toes and on time lol

      The engineer's job is to be as transparent as possible. This means letting the bands be themselves and get comfortable before their performance. A little guidance if necessary to get the check done efficiently, but getting testy because he wanted to hear more of a mic that he was already speaking into... and responding that you're trying to do a video "man".. that was just rude.

      @@uuuh9767 right? Way I do it is I run down front first, then move on to monitors and give every band member just their own vocals + their instruments (and click if applicable), then let them run through a song or two and THEN take them member by member to know what else they need. 70% of the time it's either good as is or some just want BD + snare and that's it

    I didn't realize you could flip faders for a channel and dial it into mixes in the dca/mix bus section. Ive always used it the other way around (flip the mix and dial the chanels to the mix). AWESOME another good little trick with the desk for quick sound checks.
    thanks and good work with the videos!

  • @matthewwilliams7344

    I actually HATE whenever the stage is trying to control what I’m asking them what to do. For example, when I’m checking bass, their like, “Can we check vocals first?” I just tell them this is my process. If they want to get it done fast, just let us do it in order instead of skipping around.

    If im doing a soundcheck, i don't allow other bandmembers to play. Its too annoying for me. Just want to check my lines. If im done with FOH soundcheck, ill do monitors during the practice song. At that moment the band can listen to the monitors while playing and doing some adjustments. Singers do sing louder during the song, in comparison with the soundcheck. So a monitormix will never be right during a soundcheck

    • @windellpenton

  • @Heywoodj1969
    @Heywoodj1969 3 года назад

    Again... instead of flipping to SOF on the monitor layer, just grab the bus send knobs to the left of the screen...I’d also use the talkback input for your mic, and you can use talkback A for FOH, and talkback B in the mons... instead of eating up a board channel.

      Because there are several different ways you can monitor sound during a production. Plus, if you're working with a video crew as well and you guys are on headset together. You say wedge instead of monitor to keep confusion down.

    I miss this mixer so much that I can almost taste the shrimp.
    Are you doing monitor sends on fader? Lord, that is a hideous idea. I wish they would put the monitor sends on rotary knobs. Yes, it would cost a couple dollars more to build. Or have an accessory box to plug in for those who want it. Now, there's an idea. Monitor sends on faders is just a foul thing and it does not fit into the mixer workflow.

    • @lufferov
      @lufferov 8 лет назад

      He is doing Sends On Faders, and I'm a big fan of that when I mix too. It's a personal thing... but the desk does have rotary dials for Bus Sends, it's the row of four dials stacked vertically just to the right of the Equaliser section. So, you can choose your own workflow based on your own preference, the desk is very flexible in that regard.
