Amy Helm & The Handsome Strangers: Rescue Me (Robert's Mix)
#2
Hi Robert ,
Sounds great ,Your Live mixing skills have definitely payed off with this mix ,I'm thinking the vocals could come up a touch but I know why you kept them at that level due to the excessive bleed !
I also have had the pleasure of mixing old school non digital live front of house on small and large venues ,Probably not as much as you have as usually played keys or bass on stage which is a complete different sound of what the audience is hearing using fold back or in ear monitors . I Always found the larger ones easier to blend the drums and amps than smaller gigs where sometimes only had to put less of everything else and mostly vocals and some kick and snare through the front of house .Playing on larger stages with the band spread apart never sounded as good as the band being huddled together on a smaller stage,
Either way unless you are a musician listening to all details in playing or a audio nut like me listening out for balance or room problems ,Even though it makes a huge difference to the sound ,Live mixing is more forgiving as most people are not focusing on the quality of the mix as there is usually so much going on with the visual ,feel and atmosphere compared to one of us sitting in front of monitors focusing on the sound !

Sorry for the ramble
I feel better now lol
Well Done Big Grin
