This is a video of me working on ‘rock with reason’ operating all the radio mics for the dancers to sing ‘take me to church’ by Hozier and operating from QLab.Â
Using the mute groups to turn the singers mics on just before the song started and pulled down the monitors downstage to stop any feedback from occurring.Â
Elle was the first singer to start so I had to change the volume of the song and push up her fader so the audience could hear her, I found a suitable level for the track quite quickly and could continue to mix the singers at suitable levels.
All the other singers soon joined in with the chorus which enabled me to determine who was singing louder and clearer at certain parts of the song, mixing the girls seemed easier than the boys, even though a few of them needed a little extra gain so they could be heard.
some mics were not turned on where they still muted from the crew who didn't or forgot to press the button to enable the singers to be heard.
Looking back at the video and listening to my mixing I could’ve pulled back on a few of the singers as the mix didn't have the same amount of balance it quite possibly could have sounded, I pushed a few of the singers to the point I almost experienced feedback but managed to pull back on the desk and the monitors to avoid it from getting any louder.
