MD live 3rd weekend

2001-08-13 by splank!

Here is the continuing live-experience Story part 3:

1. The "Sound Selection" LEDS
I have a problem. I love those blinking LEDs. But I found that when you have
a very full Sequence where every track is triggered and everything is
blinking wild, you can\ufffdt really see which track you\ufffdre editing at the
moment. In the studio that\ufffds not a problem. It\ufffds another live-thing. I had
to look 10 seconds to know where the not blinking LED is. You might think I
am stupid, hehe. But it\ufffds the truth. So, what is the other solution? Having
just a non blinking LED on the track you\ufffdre editing, and make those blinking
ones disappear? It would be better, but then the nice blinking ones wouldn\ufffdt
be there anymore.

2. The Sound.
I was using the main L/R outs only until now. Well, but when you play live,
you have a different Soundsystem all the time. So you need to react fast if
the Bassdrum is a Klickdrum, not a Bassdrum or the hihats are  not as loud
as on your monitors at home. Or you need a long soundcheck. So...I will use
the single outs the next time to be able to react faster with mixer-changes.

Splank!
