Where did I mix Saturday night?
Jun.06.06 Filed in: life
Why how kind of you to ask! I was over at the flying
anvil and worked a night mixing sound for a break
dancing battle/ contest. It was a lot of fun because
it was such an elaborate set up. They had a fancy
digital Canon video camera set up on a track next to
the dance floor that was being used to record the
event as well as project what was going on on the
dance floor onto a screen hanging up on the stage.
You may think it was an easy nights work only riding
a few channels but it proved to be trickier than I
thought it would be because I had to sit and baby sit
the levels seeing as the mc's would be talking quiet
one minute then screaming and hooting their heads off
the next when a dancer did something interesting.
This and I had to really ride the level to get it
loud enough without killing the speakers with nasty
distortion. Anyway, don't mean to rant, it was a lot
of fun though, here are a few photos from the show...
