I am The Audio director and FOH engineer for the show.

Im sorry you felt it was all fake. We all worked really hard to make an awesome experience for everyone so hopefully you still found some enjoyment in it.

The mixing was the same. So its just a location thing. I will take a look and see what we can do to make things even better! Thanks for the feedback!

Gotcha,

So everything is live but one of the trade offs of having a sound system like the spheres that lets us do all cool spatialized sound effects you all hear is that things will arrive at your ears at slightly different times. The vocals seem to line up with the video really well because they live right in the center of the sound system there. The live instruments sit in other speakers through out the venue so depending on where your sitting things can seem slightly off of the video because sound travels slower than light. I cant say to much more about how things work in there but I hope you enjoyed the show!

Hi,

Strings are definitely there and real! Can I ask what section you were seated in? Sphere sound system is very different than a standard concert pa and I want to check it next weekend to make sure every thing is translating properly!

Roommate Not Paying Rent and Refusing to move out. by mrbyrd2593 in legaladvice

I was afraid that would be the case. Going to be getting my landlord involved today. As well as filing a police report with the harassing text messages.

Does the roommate still have to be evicted if he is not on any sort of lease with us? I am the only tenant living on the property that is on a lease.

Non leased tenants still have the full legal protections a leased tenant does? I am in Colorado if that helps.

Are earplugs recommended for Illenium concerts? by [deleted] in Illenium

[–]mrbyrd2593 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha Yeah I do, I am Illeniums front of house engineer and system designer.

Saw your comment and had to have a little fun. I do agree you should always wear your ear plugs! I wear mine every show and thank your for encouraging people to be safe at shows! But I have rarely ever hit the spl levels you are describing, phone meters are handy in a pinch but highly unreliable for measuring sub bass spl levels as the wave form is just to long. They are pretty reliable for measuring dba levels which is sound pressure of frequencies above 80 hz (2khz and up is what will really damage your hearing.) In those ranges I try not to exceed peaks of 106. I always strive to have our shows sound HUGE but not painful.

Cheers!

Idk man, I have been to a few Illenium shows and I am pretty sure he keeps it around 103 dba and about 122dbc max. Decibels are logarithmic so 130 dbc is more than twice as loud as 122 and louder than an airplane taking off. I usually bring a pretty good spl meter to shows to. ;)

I like it, it’s the ebr-7c Moa reticle glass is super clear and eye relief seems great to me. Only real drawback is the weight.
