54- The Truth About Mixing a Band (John)
Manage episode 301072049 series 2724103
There is nothing more frustrating than putting your heart and soul into a guitar performance just to find out afterwards that you were barely heard. It is easy to blame the drummer banging on their skins. It is easy to blame the bass player who thinks the low end is where you find the energy. Its easiest to blame the keyboard player who believes they need to play all the bass notes and the middle melody… but most likely the person we blame the most... is the sound guy out front.
But is it true that you get what you pay for? Could the issue be the guitar’s tone? What is the most important thing to hear in a band mix? Which instrument is most likely to ruin the sound? Does the room make that big of a difference? Is it the equipment's fault? And, could the problem be your monitors?
Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with John, on the Tweed couch.
