  1. Today’s office… Bossman is on stage about 3 miles away by the look of it. :OnU:  #Dub #LiveSound #NuitsSonores #OnUSound

  2. Today I… modded a 1960s Shure Unidyne III microphone, precursor to the SM57, removed the transformer and switch, and added a note about avoiding phantom power. The mic sounds great, and has a lot of low end. Can’t wait to toss this on a snare. #LiveSound

  3. Did sound for a lovely TOOL tribute out of #quebec tonight. They had their tones dialed in. It's a lot of fun to push the room with a band like that.

    I do this thing for high energy rock bands where I'll not do much compression on the channels. Instead I have a buss for each instrument, and a corresponding control group (DiGiCo-speak for a DCA/VCA). The buss gets the compression and saturation, etc. I can then pull back the group while pushing the CG to get more compression, or bring up the group while knocking back the CG to open it back up.

    This gives me a lot of instant control over the dynamics and volume to punch up the big important parts while maintaining overall headroom, resulting in a dynamic yet consistent mix.

  4. Nothing scares you more doing sound for a dance competition than pressing play and seeing the dancer not move right away.

    Is it the wrong song? We’ll find out soon!

  5. Making friends with this beast tonight. Analogue business. Nice.

  6. I contributed to the #FPGA, #Modem, #PCB design, impedance detection, portable telemetry and lots of the testing for this project.

    I'm still supporting it, and will be likely until I die or am fired. It seems people like it!

  7. Tonight’s math. Calculating speaker delay time.

    Ex:

    To calculate the delay in milliseconds for a distance of 80 feet, divide the distance by the speed of sound (approximately 1126 feet per second) and then multiply by 1000.

    This results in a delay of about 71 milliseconds.

  8. Doing sound tonight for a trio from Georgia playing the panduri. Cool instrument. Always fun mixing something new.

  9. Small behind-the-scenes from our live setup. 🎧

    In this clip you first hear what the crowd hears and then we switch through each of our individual in-ear mixes.

    Same song, five different worlds: more drums here, more vocals there, less guitar there...

  10. Am Freitag spielen wir in Konstanz (21:00 im Backstage) - mein erstes volles Set mit dieser Band... warum nicht mal wieder Konstanz besuchen?

  11. Today’s office. Congratulations to a wonderful couple and two great families.

    Tail end of a wedding gig. It’s not easy money, but it is a lot of fun.

  13. The Black Sails theme is an eternal banger and was one of the highlights of the show every night. My mastered board mix from the Chicago stop of Bear McCreary's Themes and Variations tour. Sorry for the iffy camerawork, it's hard to mix and film at the same time. youtu.be/vEbk1-Re8tg #livesound #mixing #blacksails

  14. Don't miss this chance to be part of an incredible event. Live music, studio recording, surround mixing, beat making and more!

  15. Set up for #DialMForMurder - The 4 quadrants of the apocalypse!

    #WirelessWorkBench - monitors wireless body mics worn by actors.

    #QLab - sends #midi cues to our #digico mixer, turning mics on and off as needed.

    #compass - monitors the venue PA speakers

    #bigtime - an enormous clock with seconds

  16. I have been asked last minute to do sound for a funeral.

    I did not get to test anything before it started so I'm leaning pretty heavily on the default configuration.

    I have so many questions about this EQ curve but I'm not about to mess with it during a eulogy.
