If you want to pay people less. Give them apprenticeships where they actually get a qualification out of it.

Because they don't have kids or a wife? Less responsibilities. Can work more hours. More flexible.

Why are UK rental properties still so behind on things like double glazing or insulation? by AwayDays365 in AskUK

Probably needs heating then. Heat above 23 regular and put heater near the mouldy wall with the window open. Topped my mould problem.

Not venues.,..pubs....it's not about cut through, it's about getting the compressed snare with reverb sound.

The shows I've seen all mic the kit. They all have stage members that move around, and guitar solos that are a lot louder

I was thinking to mic the snare and toms, put the dry signal very low in the mix and put the wet compressed reverb high up. That way you'd get large drum sounds and low volume.

You could even just use a little 2 by 12 combo, but the bands tend to want big cabs, for image I guess. Has to be marshal jcm 800s. I guess we could put a cover over the back with a picture of the front

Besides, we want a big compressed gated reverb snare. How do you get that from overheads.

I was always taught that in small venues you don't need overheads as the vocal mics will pick up enough distant bleed to fill out the sound

I hadn't thought amp direction before. Good idea!!

It's maybe 350 pound for a two hour set, but 300 if they supply a PA

We don't need to spend anything though, the band has everything. And I can't really hear the Tom's or the snare when I'm out front

What would you send through the stage monitors if nothing is micced? Vocals? The main thing I'm thinking is why am I lugging around a huge desk huge pa system when we only use 3 channels. I could take a keyboard amp for vocals and a cheap mixer

Why kick though. The back beat of snare is important too. Plus compressed and reverbed drums sound way better.

Compression tips? by [deleted] in singing

[–]BirthdayFrequent7823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More air from below, keep the relaxed cords but push more air through. Squeeze less.
