Good live sound engineering and concert sound engineering requires
more than plugging in some amplifiers and turning a few volume
knobs. It demands knowledge of acoustics and electronics combined
with working with a band or producer to give them the sound they
want. Every venue is different -- from the cozy bar to a
medium-sized concert hall to an outdoor arena -- and each brings
its own challenges to audio engineering. But it's the live sound
engineer's job to work with and control the acoustics and make sure
the band sounds great. This book is going to be the missing link
between the technical side of audio engineering and normal everyday
language and understanding. It'll discuss the most important aspect
of Mixing a live show, and how to be creative with the tools you
are given. The idea is to go and use the book in a practical
environment. In depth descriptions of what each knob does, and how
they affect the end result. Musicians and aspiring live-sound
professionals can lean from an expert who has mixed for acts
including La Roux - The Hoosiers I Amy Winehouse I Corinne Bailey
Rae- and worked sets from the main stage at Glastonbury to the
local cozy bar, gleaning invaluable insight into what the pros do,
how they do it, what they do it with. Readers will learn the
technical, practical, and political aspects of the job - from
customizing mixing approaches and choosing the right equipment to
working with artists and other engineers. The book also includes
insightful, sometimes bizarre, but entertaining anecdotes about the
climb to the big time. Author Dave Swallow combines a lively
writing style with essential details, including complete gear lists
for featured tours, and informative sidebars that offer specific
advice on how to get started and get the gig.
