Here’s a little treat for your ears. I present to you, in its entirety (including the Q&A session), my recording of Matisyahu’s November 16, 2011, live and “unplugged” performance at the Gillioz Theatre.
I recorded this with a Tascam DR-40 in four channel mode, channels 1/2 being the internal mics for house ambience and channels 3/4 my stereo mix from the Midas Verona 400 at the Gillioz. I later mixed the four channels together in Logic Pro with minimal processing.
Enjoy!
Here’s a shot from monitor world during Carolina Liar’s soundcheck before opening for David Cook at the Gillioz Theatre last night. They don’t travel with a monitor engineer, so I gladly wore the hat. Though running in-ear monitors on a Yamaha M7 is akin to babysitting.
I really enjoyed working with Carolina Liar–fun and easy going.
David Cook took the stage around 9:05pm, at which time I got to sit back for a bit before the ever-inevitable load out.
I’m lucky to have a fantastic stage crew that continue to be the unsung heros of the show. Load-in was smooth and efficient while load-out was fast and thorough, all with a laid-back yet professional work atmosphere.
