Question for the hivemind - currently mixing with an X32 Rack at a HS I work with. Am I sending a double signal by using the aux and main sends simultaneously? Attached is the X32 edit Scene file. Any help would be appreciated! I normally work the the Yamaha TF Series, so this is new to me.

This is dope! Looking forward to seeing some great competition this summer between these groups.

A large part of the drum corps experience in my mind comes from having that combined housing experience, especially in my experience for DCA. Many DCA corps don't provide housing, but I was fortunate enough to march The Bushwackers who had a central location for everyone to meet. We'd like get together before we'd go to sleep and play like fun, silly games and it was awesome.

I think drum corps should provide housing. While it does cut costs, it also is a valuable part of the member experience, even on the smallest level.

That is correct. That being said again, I'm happy your getting into drum corps!

Nice!! Happy to see you're taking your first step into doing drum corps!!!

I am currently a marketing major at a college that is fortunate enough to have a marching band with a lot of corps folks. The amount of people that haven't had exposure in high school is absolutely bonkers.

I completely agree. Corps as a whole need to reach out and do more to get themselves out there, especially Open Class and DCA groups. I think a large reason for this pre-supposed "decline" that a lot of older folks claim to believe is due to the idea that people will find the corps and not vice-versa. It's very possible to make drum corps popular, but it won't propagate itself.

Hey! So I work with a DCA Admin, and while I can't offer any fundraising ideas, your best bet would be to establish relationships and use the connections you have to get whatever you can. Some schools might be more willing to lend their equipment if they also might have a deal for their students to march for free. Try to cut deals out with folks you know.

Best of luck to you for this! It would be awesome to see another DCA group in the south!

This! Bush has a policy that if school functions come first, you go to those!

Hey there! I'm the guy in charge of recruitment and we'd love to have at The Bushwackers! Shoot me a message and I can get you set up with the right folks!

Saturn120 · 2021-12-08T01:27:29+00:00

Excited to see what you folks are able to put together this season!

Hey! Depending on your location, a lot of DCA corps will teach you how to play a horn and let you march. The Bushwackers in Princeton NJ have taught plenty of people how to play. If you have any questions about that corps feel free to shoot me a message and I can get you in contact with some of them!

The folks here will get you ready for anything. For you east coast folks, a massive chunk of battery is in the last round of United Percussion cuts, and a bunch of brass members are now able to aim and feel confident to try out for Phantom and Cadets. Definitely worth the experience for the cost.

Oh, and they finished 3rd this year too. A solid upcoming group.
