First Big Show

<< < (4/8) > >>

dpdan:
I agree about setting monitor balances, standing next to the musician's monitor... it's wonderful!
Just the pure lack of having to set up tons of FOH gear is a blast.

Wynnd:
I miss having a booth.  Now I usually work from a very small table.  And Colorado sunshine is a problem without a tent

dpdan:
I hear you Wynnd,
I sold my Allen & Heath analog console on eBay along with most of the outboard gear associated with it, 
when it was all sold, I enough money to buy an Allen & Heath Qu24 with AR2412 stage box and a DL mixer. I had no cash layout for the change of gear.

When I do a concert, I use the Qu24 with faders which is very nice. However, most of my jobs are done with the Mackie DL32R.
And yes, sunshine is a problem with iPads and touch screens. I used to have an Easy-Up tent, but I sold that too and replaced it with a crank up umbrella for a patio table, it works great.

 


 

Keyboard Magic:
I use a 10x10 easy up tent on rare occasions. They're still a pain to set up, but the shade is pretty good. If you're on pavement, you can't lock the legs down and if it's really windy, over goes your shade. Gotta get some weights for the legs I think.

Kev tyler:
i did a gig outside with my pad, some birds dropped their load on my screen, that's probably lucky the barman said, an hour later I popped my compression driver,

Yeah really lucky,

 :)
