Ohhh... I know that feeling at showtime .. when you mentioned quick scramble on the EQ and balance... that's where my heart drops for the 1st song

Yeah it’s always a rush to get it together quickly
jumbotron shot at the end of the surfer with the band in the bg was a sick shot whoever got that angle at the right time
I like the shorter format ! Short and sweet and straight to the point. Keep it up !

I travelled to Rock Im Park from South Africa to see you guys. You did an incredible job man, I was right up front and it was some of the best and most intese sound I have ever experienced. My that kick drum cleared my sinuses right out haha. Big ups

L Acoustics for the win 🎉
Love the video ❤ would love to see them go back to longer 45 to 60 minute episodes though

I agree. Seeing everything without many cuts is so much fun to watch.

It’s hard to film enough stuff and edit it on the road to be able to do long ones. I’m trying a new thing this tour doing short ones each day and trying to do them for every day of the tour. I’ll maybe do longer ones again for the next tour and do 1 video for the whole tour.
I would like to see your workflow on Dlive the effect you use and tricks!!!
Love the video! which trigger module the drummer uses?
i wanna see the "this f'ing guy" faces from the other FOH techs behind their starship enterprise boards , when you rock up with that 12 fader desk : )

So incredible man. Any chance you’ll make a video regarding doing this at Rockville? 🤞

I didn’t film enough at Rockville, for that show we had limited crew so I was more busy on the tour and it’s hard to film and edit while still doing my job!
nice

Thanks for one more great video . May I ask you if you are using the Fusion and Maxx BCL at the same time on your Master LR ? I´m using also the Maxx BCL which is great but it seems like the Fusion is also a really great tool , as I can see them in many foh racks right now :D
@RattlinBonesClub
Ай бұрын
Yeah my main LR goes into the fusion first, then out of there into the maxxBCL and then back to the console. 🫡
Thanks for this insight❤️ Fusion on the Mix-Bus?
@RattlinBonesClub

Yes, it is! Main LR insert is the fusion followed by the maxxBCL

greay vlog! but i think you need to set your video fps to be at least 30 i guess?? haha
@RattlinBonesClub

Haha maybe, everything was set to 24 for filming other still stuff. Maybe I’ll try 30 for this style or video to make it smoother 👍
YO man! Nice Vid. What Drummic-Clamps are those?
@KingFaderRecordings
Ай бұрын
Small Rig clamps, says in the video text. They are nice. I bought a couple after seeing a previous video like this. They come with just camera threads so you have to also buy the mic stand thread adaptor.

Do you know what happened with the audio engineering for Babymetal? Something didn't work out properly during their set, particularly during 'Brand New Day'. Unfortunately, it fell far short of the heights it can hit (as we saw at fox_fest) and seemed that many of Su's vocals didn't come through properly.

Not sure, I didn’t see their set
How are you multitrack recording the show? whats the hard drive connected to the console and is it a tablet running mac?
@RattlinBonesClub
28 күн бұрын
The console has a waves card installed, this outputs each channel into a network switch which links to a Mac mini I have in my rack. I then use waves tracks live to record the channels and play back to the desk for virtual soundcheck. Also on the network switch is a new aves sound grid server for running plugins but I haven’t got around to setting that up and using it properly yet 😅 The hard drive in the console is a Samsung t7, I use this to record the desk LR mix each day. I found with some usb sticks the console recording would skip and corrupt but with this ssd it’s been fine every time!
AE3000 on bottom snare!? Would be fantastic!
