Whew, man, I'm going to have to watch this several times to get close to absorbing everything. Then I might be ready for a live lesson. I'm a retired plumber thrown into the "sound leader" position at our very small church. Our SQ7 is like driving an F-1 car with a learners permit. We get through the service without any obvious problems but I know there is so much more I could do. Thanks for helping. And Merry Christmas!
Great timing for me on this one. I've just moved from many yrs on consumer level speakers to Meyer Sound. From using the Meyers I've embarrassingly discovered I've been gain staging my M32 incorrectly for years. This had me go down the rabbit hole on all of what you are talking about, along with fader resolution. Either no one talks about this, or I'm just finding this info now. Its such a massive amount of very important information. I'm an obsessive hobbiest with live sound, I'm not a pro or touring tech. I'm assuming at that level you learn about all this stuff, but I had no idea about all of this, and I consider myself pretty knowledgeable in this area. Grateful to finally learn more about this. Great nerdy stuff indeed!
Ooohhh yeeessss tasty digital signal processing content... I'll take seconds please!
Wonderfully well explained, Sir. You made a dry subject angaging and entertaining. I must check out your other vids.
Attaboy for Attaway !!! Thanks, God bless and have a Merry Christmas Brother James
I enjoyed the way you explain. Thank you for this content.
Nice job, James. And this is the best non-technical explanation and analysis of the relevance to live sound of 32-bit float I've heard to date. I am taking a 32-channel recording off a Midas 32 board at church live and then mixing it in Studio One. So, regardless how well my buddy running the mixer FOH gets the gain staging, I get a clean enough signal every channel and I end up with useable stems for everything. Game changer for me! Thank you for what you do. God's peace.
Amasing information ❤
Great practicle way of putting things ❤
Great video, will see if we can work in as an example on our new blog👌
Hey James great video very informative! Just had a question about your clipping example, I maybe way off here but if you gain up the preamp isn’t that an analog amplifier? I know on our CL5 there is a crazy difference in clipping the preamp and clipping the master bus. This may have been what you were showing I just wanted to clarify 🙃
Thanks!
Love all your content. I'm learning a lot. Would you have any resources or be willing to make a video on mixing in a boomy gym? Thank ya
Super nerdy 😂, but we all love it. Thanks for the great content.
Hi James, Thanks for sharing your gift and knowledge on ear monitors. I have a question: As a singer myself, is there an ear monitor where I can hear a pre- recording of a song that I did to remember the words due to dyslexia?
