Episode #3. After ten years mixing at one of America's most beloved and well respected live music venues I'm sharing my timetested, no nonsense methods for fast, efficient, awesome soundchecks. When you're mixing in small venues where you'll be mixing both monitors and frontofhouse this is good stuff to know to keep things moving quickly while maximizing results and making the performers very happy.
A huge thank you to the awesome Bob Dossa for all of his hard work shooting and editing around all of my mistakes and awkward nervousness while in front of the camera. You can find him and much more of his work at http://www.rainydayrun.com
Please share with engineers, musicians and/or anyone that performs on a stage. Thank you for your support!
