Any video on speaker to room tuning ...I'd really like to know how you guys do it...
Please make a playlist of these videos ❤ thanks 🙏🏽
OMG thank you for this. In the past 8 years I've been starting to lose faith (at least in the city I work in) that live-audio engineers simply do NOT follow or even understand the basic concept of gain staging.........never sacrifice the input gain for ""volume." oye! Great, quick video guys!
😂I love this video with all 3 of you guys👌😭
Setting gain do you set around -18fb then add co.pression or at 0 and set compression.
Came here to learn and ended up just being entertained and laughing 15 seconds in lmfao
What do they mean when they say analog 0?
I’m using Allen Heath Qu 24, is my gain structure meter should be 0, -12db or -18dB? Thanks 🙏
An Allen and Heath mixers I like to have it at around 4 (Where the yellow starts) because from the 0 on the meter to the absolute 0 which is the red at the top youve got around 18dB Headroom, which is plenty. The guys in this video say 12 which makes a lot of sense. I hope, that wasn´t too confusing
Where should your volume sliders be set, when you are setting your gain structure?
You qant to have the most precision with our faders. You have that at 0dB because the travel to add or subtract 10dB is the furthest.
So I´ve got my faders at around 0dB
0db or unity
So if the PA is to loud after properly gain staging, it would be best to turn the amp down. Is that a fair statement?
Yes. Correct. What is being sent to the amplifier is both the signal that you want to send (whereby you control the volume with the fader) and the system noise floor (which is always there). If you send a weak signal to the amp, that signal is closer to the noise floor of the system and the amplifier will amplify both the noise and the signal. That’s an example of poor signal to noise ratio. If you send a good hot (not too hot ;-) ) to the amplifier then the signal is much louder than the noise floor and you get cleaner sound from the speakers. Keep a good signal to noise ratio throughout the whole signal chain and control the volume in the room at the last possible point. Hope that helps.
Funny intro! haha
New to mixing, do you set gain the add compression?
yes
also when changing gain chage compresson but not other around
Gain stage first, then compress to level out the vocal. I usually gain stage eq, then bus the vocal for compression and add delay and reverb to that. Hope that helps! I shoot for -10 on the level.
Yes. Here's a video all about compression ua-cam.com/video/BpwCEptKXxg/v-deo.html
dont repeat mixes for monitors eq comp all that on vocals
0:29 knob on the top? hahahahaha....
Are you reading? 😂😂😂😂
I think nobody knows what actually gain is
wow, guy fieri gained weight
