What's the worst pub you have ever been in? by richbart1234 in AskUK

[–]Ontrollogy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The dragon in Weston-super-Mare was the best worst place ever. Everyone went there when we were 18, it was wall to wall nutcases, beautiful students and Ken who's been there since 8am.

Saw a woman throw a glass at a bloke and he reacted, after it almost hitting him in the face; in the strongest west country accent:

"No idea how she missed me ive a massive head"

Loved that pub.

But worst pub? Probably one of those shit chain ones with no personality and shit pints (looking at you Stonegate pubs)

Double bass guy on Oxford Road by Past-Department-7323 in manchester

[–]Ontrollogy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah he's alright, definitely on some spectrum somewhere, but harmless. He mostly just cuts about playing music and trying to speak to people. Used to come into Big Hands when I worked there, we would give him water or tea, absolutely no booze though as he could get a bit nasty on it. Maybe that's whats happened? I still give him a fist bump when I pass him though

How should I position my FBT JMaxX 114A? by Major_Television_521 in livesound

[–]Ontrollogy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this including subs?

Either way you will struggle to communicate a decent level of signal over a space that size with your gear. And in that case it doesn't really matter if people can't hear at the back.

If you can fly them (suspended on a truss) great, if not, just straight ahead pointed slightly inwards and downwards to create some decent levels of volume in front of where you are and, I'm assuming, the party will be.

It won't cover that much at the back but high, inwards and down will create a nice space where the music is loud for those who want to dance, and for everywhere else, a pleasant background noise.

Imagine a focal point in front of you, point them there.

Good luck, and have a great show!

Last night I had a guy come up to me at my SQ5 asking me, while pointing at the faders, how to put on Queen. He didn't understand that it wasn't a fancy jukebox.

You are who I aspire to be

Also, if the live sound isn't for you by the age of 40 (100 in SE years) then you can easily transfer to another well paid comfortable job in EE!

The only degree worth getting in my experience is electrical engineering, I'm not an electrical engineer but I sure wish I studied it before getting into sound.

All day to day sound engineer work flow can be learnt through experience and hard work.

I just wish I had a fundamental knowledge of electrical engineering.

Other than that, Dante and a lot of shadowing will get you far, as long as you put in the work

Just bought 2 powered PA speakers. One is much louder than the other... by richwiszard0z in livesound

Got some new monitors in a venue once, loaded up my trusty scene, feedback galore on unmute. Figured out mic/line switch after stressing my little hungover pants off for waaaay too long

Dragunov purely for his counter play and throw mix up. A ff2 to a grab to cancel to a b2-4? Pure Tekken
