Amy Helm & The Handsome Strangers: Rescue Me (Robert's Mix)

[thedon]

Live mixing is less 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

As a live sound mixer, I think I need to disagree with your statement here, "Live sound is less forgiving..." My experience is that live sound is much more forgiving in the fact that it is temporal. Once played it is gone forever. You can't look back and analyze it. It is fleeting. Recorded music, on the other hand, and what we are doing here, is much less forgiving in that it can be played over and over and critiqued on the minutest detail.
If you mean less forgiving in the context of having less time to get it right, well that is certainly true.

Yes you are 100% right ,woops read my post I can see my post didn't make sense as ,I meant live is more forgiving and listening to and analysing is less forgiving thanks for correcting me I appreciate it ,I had a big day and fixed the typo .

Cheers
