My first thought as well. I'd never touch it.

When I was a teenager in the late 60s I used to go to dances in local halls. Instead of lusting after the girls I would sidle up to the guitar amps and learn what all the controls did. In my twenties when I went to bars or big shows I would leave my fellows to go and study the mixing desk if it was accessible, and if the operator didn't look too busy, ask questions. This is what I dreamed of. :-)

I'm not familiar with lighting yet and don't quite know what everything on the desk does at this moment (There's a lot of flashy lights, twisty knobs and sliders).

It's a pretty great console.

I get it why clubs use a dedicated drum kit, but as a drummer, I really hate it when I can’t use my own kit. It saves time setting up and cuts down the sound check. But not all of these club kits have the same quality and can compete with the sound of a drummers own kit. I personally invested in a premium kit, that is tuned to what it should sound like for our music and doesn’t take more than 5 minutes to setup and sound check. The sound depends on shell material, shell sizes and used skins. On the other hand, not every drummer is as prepared as they should be 😅. But anyway, great video!

@chrishammillaudio

Жыл бұрын

It depends on the venue. With this venue we let headlining tour acts and their direct support do anything they need as far as gear goes but for locals and local shows with 4-6 bands per show we have them use our house backline. Drummers bring their own snare and cymbals. I’m way more lenient for guitar players and bass players bringing their own cabs than having to do 3-4 drum kit changeovers a show.
