Nick Loper I believe because the sound isn't taken from the output, i don't know how to explain it but the sound is simply recorded into the recording device.
Nick Loper It's certainly because the DVD production isn't finish yet. The first phase in the post-production of a DVD is the video editing. The audio-mixing is the last phase of production before the thing is release. I'm pretty sure that the final version will be waaay better. And sorry for my bad english.
Alex Martellino i have seen that happen before. Dream Theater released an iffy live clip, then they later changed it and re uploaded it. the 2nd upload was the one that was on the dvd.
Phil Clarke He's 17 years old. I know him. His name is Pete and he suffers from Werner Syndrome which makes him age faster than everyone else. People make that mistake all the time but he's cool with it. Cheers mate!
I was front row for this, hands down the best live band performance I've ever seen. Have loved these guys for years and was so nice to be able to briefly speak to Dan afterwards. So glad he's back! Can't wait to see you again :)
Acle Kahney Can I ask you why you couldn't mix it yourself? It's kind of strange considering that you're an excellent mixing engineer. Altered State is one of the best sounding album I've listen to.
I saw Tesseract for the fifth time in Nottingham on this tour and it was absolutely the best gig I've ever been too. And the crowd was way crazier than at this gig, there was a mosh pit for every song including April. I hope I see them again a million times.
I just gotta say - you guys rock our world. And while there's plenty of conversation over Tesseract's front man / vocalist history, I'm sure they would agree: Acle, James, Amos and Jay - you guys are fucking incredible. Hope you ALL are feeling the love and appreciation.
This video's sick and Dan's probably the best singer on Earth but I don't why with all Tesseract live videos they put out, it's like it hardly even sounds live with all the backing tracks and what sounds like direct to line guitars/bass. Put some audience mics I don't know
You know what's beautiful about this mix? It's so easy to forget that it's live. There are some telltale signs that it is which further leaves in awe... But just in general; this really feels like I'm listening to a newer version of One.
julian boonds estás loco, Tesseract es una increíble banda, y un excelente pilar del Progresivo moderno, si me permites decirte, ellos fueron pioneros de lo que ahora es considerado y prostituido Djent, después de Messughah ellos tomaron el estandarte. Difiero demasiado.
Can't hear the "heavy" guitar,i know its not but it almost sounds like a D.I from the desk :( Stoked for the DVD but if this is the mix i don't think I'll be able to enjoy it. The lack of ambient crowd mics kills the vibe too :/
There is a couple things to do with a mix. In my opinion: 1) If we take into consideration tone of an instruments - too much bass, bass drum, not many of electric guitar. 2) Equalization - if it is possible, lower 65 Hz of - 3 dB, 93 Hz of - 2 - 2,5 dB. These things are the major elements which I see to correct them Everything it is just suggestion, my personal opinion, with no offence ;)
Comencé a escuchar esta banda hace unos meses atras y quedé asombrado sobre todo con el trabajo que hicieron en "One", Quisiera que en un futuro vengan a argentina pero es muy complicado. Sin dudas unos maestros del Djent!
Watching this whole show will probably make me motion sick. Tesseract is not a band like Iron Maiden where the epicness asks for a lot of cinematography. This is a band where you just sit down and appreciate the music. I'm not liking this approach, but that's just my opinion :)
feels weird not hearing anything from the crowd :s but anyway looks so incredible hot in there haha still wish i could have gone but had to sell my tickets :'(
Props to Tesseract, this is a beautifully recorded performance. Small mistakes in the performance convince me that it's 100% live audio too, which is awesome. It's a bit of a shame that they completely cut the crowd audio out though, makes it seem more like a live-in-studio recording.
I've got confused feeleings about this recording. First of all I really like Tesseract. I'm fan since the first album, and what they did in Altered State that was truly magnificent. The performance here is absolutely tremendeous, and briiliant. But the sound and video is not coherent for me. What I see is brutal, energetic performance, but I don't here it audiovisely. I planned to buy this product, but after the sneek peekI am conserned. :-(
Rory O'Neill Yeah, as many "DanWasBetteract" people there are, I personally prefer Ashe. It might be the fact that a lot of people get a nostalgiac kick out of Dan where I basically got into Tesseract because of Altered State. I just prefer Ashe's voice, they're both equally talented if you ask me.
Todd Anderson I dunno...I'm not a big fan of AShe's voice but he sounded better on Altered State than Dan did on One...HOWEVER....Dan is probably embarrassed at that performance because he is absolutely outstanding on the 2 Skyharbor albums and sounds soooo much better than he did on One so The Oddysey and Scala will be really interesting.
Yeah, when I first heard Dan I was like there can be no voice better than his but then I came across Ashe and he just fucking destroyed my eardrums. Ashe in my opinion has more 'feel' as opposed to Dan who is more versatile. That's what I concluded
I've been waiting a live DVD for so long... It's such a shame to not get the live sound on this. Now please don't get me wrong, I love every single piece of art you have released guys, I really cherich them!! But I hate the sound on live DVD's on these days... For an isolated performance I would prefer Sphere Studios with Acle and Amos on mixing. With that said, I'm still getting a copy of this! just can't avoid it! P.S: PLEASE COME DOWN TO SOUTHAMERICA AND MEET A REAL CROWD!!!
Is there a particular reason why they have released these songs for the 3rd time? They were on the Concealing Fate EP and the One album. Is it just because of the new vocalist? Not complaining, just curious...
Snare sounded better at the venue. I think. Obviously a different live mix there than afterwards for a dvd release. Not that it sounds necessarily bad. Don't know what kind of snare muffling Jay normally uses, or even if he ever does but had to for this show. But this video intro of Deception was so exciting and when the song kicked in I guess I was expecting a different kind snare blast. No worries. Drum bass sounds really good, though. I reeeally liked being at the show.
Damn a great performance! However the kick is way up front it covers all the guitars. It should definitely be dialed down in the final mix, maybe a tad more compression would't hurt either. Awesome band! :)
If you thought this video was good, wait until you see them live. I've seen them like 4 or 5 times now, and they've gotten better and better each time; and the crowd has gotten more, and more intense. People LOVE Tesseract.
Amos. Too metal for shoes.
haha^^
He went full ballerina the last time I saw them live. 😅
So much isolation in the mix, where's the crowd/room sound?!
I mean, I still love it
Nick Loper I believe because the sound isn't taken from the output, i don't know how to explain it but the sound is simply recorded into the recording device.
Nick Loper It's certainly because the DVD production isn't finish yet. The first phase in the post-production of a DVD is the video editing.

Martin Fournier I doubt it. Why would they share something and put OFFICIAL VIDEO in the title if this isn't the final version? Let's hope I'm wrong.
Alex Martellino Yeah, wouldn't really make much sense to release this before it was finished.
Alex Martellino i have seen that happen before. Dream Theater released an iffy live clip, then they later changed it and re uploaded it. the 2nd upload was the one that was on the dvd.
4:05 the old guy is like, "I'm just really happy to be hanging out with the young people."
Haha
Phil Clarke I'm headbanging next to him and he wasn't moving at all :(
Phil Clarke that's my Dad.
Phil Clarke He's 17 years old. I know him. His name is Pete and he suffers from Werner Syndrome which makes him age faster than everyone else. People make that mistake all the time but he's cool with it. Cheers mate!
JAck Lynch the guy above you says he's his dad, you say he suffers from Werner Syndrome. SOMEONE IS BULLSHITING
Thank you guys! Tesseract is the best band of all time. \o/ Come to Brazil please.
You have a great taste Yara. Also in waiting too.

David Maxim Micic Bilo 4.0 Please! :)
I was front row for this, hands down the best live band performance I've ever seen. Have loved these guys for years and was so nice to be able to briefly speak to Dan afterwards. So glad he's back! Can't wait to see you again :)
this mix isn't great. what happened there Acle?
jackpaice Not my mix
Acle Kahney aaaah gotcha
***** I second that
Acle Kahney Can I ask you why you couldn't mix it yourself? It's kind of strange considering that you're an excellent mixing engineer. Altered State is one of the best sounding album I've listen to.
jackpaice I like it.
I think you can best judge it with good speakers and if you don´t watch the video but only listen to the songs :)
I saw Tesseract for the fifth time in Nottingham on this tour and it was absolutely the best gig I've ever been too. And the crowd was way crazier than at this gig, there was a mosh pit for every song including April. I hope I see them again a million times.
God. These guys have posted so much awesome stuff recently.
I'm totally mindblown.
Looking forward to seeing you in Russia again!
I just gotta say - you guys rock our world.
And while there's plenty of conversation over Tesseract's front man / vocalist history, I'm sure they would agree: Acle, James, Amos and Jay - you guys are fucking incredible. Hope you ALL are feeling the love and appreciation.
This is the band I wish I could have been in.
As much as i like seeing every member playing, this type of editing is adequate for a 4min music video, not a hour and a half long full concert, imho
This video's sick and Dan's probably the best singer on Earth but I don't why with all Tesseract live videos they put out, it's like it hardly even sounds live with all the backing tracks and what sounds like direct to line guitars/bass. Put some audience mics I don't know
I think that's what they're after though
You know what's beautiful about this mix?
It's so easy to forget that it's live. There are some telltale signs that it is which further leaves in awe... But just in general; this really feels like I'm listening to a newer version of One.
Holly shit this is SHIT !!!! estas bandas de ahora dan asco.
julian boonds estás loco, Tesseract es una increíble banda, y un excelente pilar del Progresivo moderno, si me permites decirte, ellos fueron pioneros de lo que ahora es considerado y prostituido Djent, después de Messughah ellos tomaron el estandarte. Difiero demasiado.

THAT FUCKIN ENDINGGGGGGGGGG OH... OH MY GOD!
10:17 It is physically impossible to remain perfectly still and listen to this part.
3:53 I need to experience this
Badass!!!!!
Maybe better than on the album.
Definitely.
Comencé a escuchar esta banda hace unos meses atras y quedé asombrado sobre todo con el trabajo que hicieron en "One", Quisiera que en un futuro vengan a argentina pero es muy complicado. Sin dudas unos maestros del Djent!
Espero vayas al tour latinoamericano!
7:12 I wish they would've done more with Amos's vocals.
Cookie Monster Vocals
Fucking Amos, Djent God \m/
Superb,mind blowing drummer.
Like the kick up front in live mix...well done
I noticed the snare is way too high and Amos' voice is pretty quiet
Watching this whole show will probably make me motion sick. Tesseract is not a band like Iron Maiden where the epicness asks for a lot of cinematography. This is a band where you just sit down and appreciate the music. I'm not liking this approach, but that's just my opinion :)
wow
feels weird not hearing anything from the crowd :s but anyway looks so incredible hot in there haha still wish i could have gone but had to sell my tickets :'(
Esta banda es increíble. De lo mejorcito del progresivo hoy en día.
The chills were real , amazing.
Props to Tesseract, this is a beautifully recorded performance. Small mistakes in the performance convince me that it's 100% live audio too, which is awesome. It's a bit of a shame that they completely cut the crowd audio out though, makes it seem more like a live-in-studio recording.
4:05 This will be me at that age!!
wow, the audio mixing on this is horrible. where the fuck is the low end?
I haven't listened to or seen anything t h a t good for years
Still just as perfect as it was Nov 4th 2010 at the London Music Hall in London, Ontario w/ Devin Townsend. Unreal
Nice pfp
6:45 sooo good
What they made with the guitars at 10:17 is amazing! loved that little detail
It's just panning lol
dans screams seem to have gotten better!! never thought it was possible! awesome live performance yet a fucking horrible mix! please fix it!
Dans screams at the end are fucking great! Pity he's planning in getting rid of them. So I hear..
Bunters196 Didn't hear scream once in the latest Skyharbor album or this Tesseract tour :/
+Anton Larchey Good, neither bands needed screams in their music and their latest albums are proof of that.
geeze those drums around @2:17 damn @Jay Postones
Soooooooo, my deeeemoooons, yoooooooouur time has coooo-hoooome! Amazing perfomance, even with the unusual lower voice!
just fuckin' awesome
saw myself at the end, life now complete
Saw them for the first time on that tour 5 months ago and I still get goosebumps when I remember it!!
Soooo good! Happy Dan is back in the fold
unbelievably goooood
I've got confused feeleings about this recording.

9:55 I was about to ask about the Daniel's screams, but I just shut the fuck up.
This is awesome, still miss Ashe being in the band though.
Rory O'Neill Yeah, as many "DanWasBetteract" people there are, I personally prefer Ashe. It might be the fact that a lot of people get a nostalgiac kick out of Dan where I basically got into Tesseract because of Altered State. I just prefer Ashe's voice, they're both equally talented if you ask me.
Todd Anderson Yeh, I mean, I still appreciate Dan and all, he is a brilliant vocalist, but Ashe I felt was so fitting to the band compared.
Todd Anderson I dunno...I'm not a big fan of AShe's voice but he sounded better on Altered State than Dan did on One...HOWEVER....Dan is probably embarrassed at that performance because he is absolutely outstanding on the 2 Skyharbor albums and sounds soooo much better than he did on One so The Oddysey and Scala will be really interesting.
Rory O'Neill I would be happy if they switched between the two each album.
Yeah, when I first heard Dan I was like there can be no voice better than his but then I came across Ashe and he just fucking destroyed my eardrums. Ashe in my opinion has more 'feel' as opposed to Dan who is more versatile. That's what I concluded
Who is Ashe O'Hara? Lmao
I hope nascent is on the dvd
i think this is not the pharmacy, but fuck it,.I'II stay
jay plays with his eyes closed like a fuckin' boss
This is goddamn great!
These dudes are fucking awesome
Great Work
This is absolutely incredible!
When are these god's coming to Canada? I NEED TO BE AT A SHOW NOW!
Goose-fucking-bumps! Can't wait for the new album.
FUCK I HAVE TO SEE THEM LIVE SOMEDAY
4.05 my father
wow that so very awesome
My god, what a band...
Love it!
Although the mix is way too dry for a live sound, it's still enjoyable :)
I've been waiting a live DVD for so long... It's such a shame to not get the live sound on this.
Now please don't get me wrong, I love every single piece of art you have released guys, I really cherich them!! But I hate the sound on live DVD's on these days...
For an isolated performance I would prefer Sphere Studios with Acle and Amos on mixing.
With that said, I'm still getting a copy of this! just can't avoid it!
P.S: PLEASE COME DOWN TO SOUTHAMERICA AND MEET A REAL CROWD!!!
That snare
Is there a particular reason why they have released these songs for the 3rd time? They were on the Concealing Fate EP and the One album. Is it just because of the new vocalist? Not complaining, just curious...

I reeeally liked being at the show.
Excellent production value and sound, good watch - looking forward to the full DVD release
Is the sequencer too loud...?
Seems like it...sounds good...but...kinda takes that whole live feel away to me...
Damn a great performance! However the kick is way up front it covers all the guitars. It should definitely be dialed down in the final mix, maybe a tad more compression would't hurt either. Awesome band! :)
Opeth's live DVDs are in my opinion something that would fit more with Tesseract's music
If you thought this video was good, wait until you see them live. I've seen them like 4 or 5 times now, and they've gotten better and better each time; and the crowd has gotten more, and more intense. People LOVE Tesseract.
Nothing against Dan cause he's amazing. But Altered State was just so damn good. I'm gonna miss Ashe.
amazing!
I still miss Ashe(RockStar) but Dan is such a stud its hard to complain
this band is one of the best of all time with either vocalist.
Everything is 10/10 bar that manky snare! Terrible!
Amazing....perfect! I wish one day i can go to a concert of u guys. Come to South America please
believe me, they can play an absolutely much better than you can see on this video. I'm hear it live, swear
I don't know if you understand how much beautiful is this music...
Dude, this is reeeally great, in love with the live performance
those who hate the way of recording this should know how difficult recordings is.
I just found this band today...and I must say...the old singer is a thousand timed better than this one.
Short answer, you can't put alcohol on a carnet as it's a "consumable product"
A crazy loud snare drum with special guests Tesseract
A nice appetizer for the main release! Any news on a Hi-Def release or is DVD the best were gonna get?
god. hairraisingly good
Anybody noticed the fist in the audience and then the same gesture of Dan at 10:17 ?
Kick ass performance. Love this band!
THE IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
I truly hope I can hear some screamo in the future songs. Dan is briliant doing it. Hope he isnt trying to end it.
Come to chile wn!
A quien veré en Septiembre en el Indie? :D ahuevoo
One of the best gigs I've ever been to! Incredible!!
Am I the only one who noticed the drummer's errors?
saw these guys last week at shepard bush 02 in london they were utterly spellbinding
what genre is this? seems not like a djent something
Prog metal
Thank you Century Media for these videos ! 💕
This is seriusly amazing. That snare sound tho :( its louder than anything else
