Thank you!

[@brettbaker719]

I love these videos! I hope you continue to make them!!

[@jflores5511]

I’m with the company that does the main stage there for mid state. It’s cool to see other rigs and gigs set up there

[@BrianBondAudio]

Nice! I will be there for Nickleback this year (as a spectator) lol.

[@ByronBelleMusic]

I started doing the exact same thing on my channel! just subscribed to your channel! keep going!

[@GMajor03]

Great content man! Appreciate you sharing

[@BrianBondAudio]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@gatewoodproductions511]

please keep these Vid rolling.

[@handyfm]

Try mucking round with your camera fps, you’ll find one that syncs with power, your console LEDs will stop flickering then :)

[@MCraft1301]

Am I the only one who noticed that man in 21:17 who almost fell on the stairs?

[@MrMercho4416]

great work !obviously not your first rodeo....... ha ha

[@andykarter6866]

3 gigs I don't miss. Political, Beauty Pageants, Horse Arenas. Awesome thing about freelance is when the gear gets back to the shop you don't clean it! The dirt goes EVERYWHERE.

Go Niners!

[@bryancampbell2197]

Appreciate the video. Could you do a video on what you keep in your work box pelican?

[@BrianBondAudio]

Hello! Here is my video from last year. There is an update coming this year as I have made some changes. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJKQdXqllNB3fZI

[@KidZoid555]

Nice video.

[@BrianBondAudio]

Thanks!

[@KidZoid555]

Your welcome. Live sound is really cool.

[@thesoundriseguy]

Hi, I have a question and I think you are the right guy to answer it What should I do if I have a condenser mic connected to a Y splitter? From which console should I send the +48v from? Monitors mixer or FOH mixer?

[@BrianBondAudio]

Hello, Depends on the split. Some have isolation transformers that will not pass the +48v down the isolation side. If this is the case, do phantom down the split side not on the Iso. In the scenario it’s a split without an iso output, either console could do phantom theoretically. I recommend picking one position. Traditionally, monitors takes care of phantom power. And would in the isolation scenario, would get the non isolated split.

[@tharun9258]

is there any opertunities for indians to work in sound companies around you

[@rithinrajsr8497]

How do you split inputs into foh and moh consoles?

[@BrianBondAudio]

We used a 56 channel analog split for this gig.

[@JonyMimoso]

What App you used on the tablet to build the console file??

[@BrianBondAudio]

That was M32 Mix app and QL5 Mix app

[@nathanharrellyoutube]

It’s hard to believe the stage box costs more than the mixing console in some cases 😮

[@BrianBondAudio]

Haha which box are you referring to?

[@nathanharrellyoutube]

@@BrianBondAudiothe tio which is like 9k I believe which is more than a Yamaha TF5

[@nathanharrellyoutube]

I was mistaken it’s 3 tios and I was thinking of the 32 input Rio, so confusing at times.

[@BrianBondAudio]

@@nathanharrellyoutube the Tios are much cheaper. But we are using a QL5

[@nathanharrellyoutube]

@@BrianBondAudio I see that now 😑

[@matteobertelli1787]

Same stuffs, same dimension of the stage, start at 9 am ends at 2 am. All in 1 day

[@BrianBondAudio]

Sounds like a rough day. But doable.

[@matteobertelli1787]

@@BrianBondAudio very rough... Is like 3 or 4 days a week this way here

[@JimmieBattle-tj3rn]

Hi my name is Jimmy I'm a Christian DJ I wanted to do Christian songs at my church but wanted to be a Christian song man at my church I'm trying so hard can you teach me how to do sound

[@johnny_chouinard]

im glad im not the only one who takes pics of the sub snakes to patch.

[@BrianBondAudio]

No shame in it!

[@sob7741]

Awesome video! I remember days like this. We had a Thursday night loaded in gig Friday Saturday @ a country fair. Loaded out Sunday AM. As we were loading out the cowboys were loading in the bulls. Quite the pucker factor when you got bulls staring @ you while you push cases on to the truck. Other fun thing you are flying Clair cabs. We were wing stacking the big ole beast Clair Cabs back then.

[@BrianBondAudio]

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed.

[@greenlime100]

Awesome video man! What’s the monitor and arm mount you’re using on the SKB laptop case? Love the setup.

[@BrianBondAudio]

Thanks for the watch. These are all Arkon Products.

[@PexoGames]

What foam do you use for your Peli case?

[@BrianBondAudio]

For my 1510, I use TrekPak dividers.

[@carltice544]

Jill Johnson!

[@ea7599]

Crazy that I've got the same three cases and a black backpack lmao. Only difference is the smallest Peli I'm using as a mic kit and the larger one a cable kit. Solid video again dude, really enjoying these.

[@BrianBondAudio]

Thanks for the comment. Glad you are enjoying the videos. They have been fun to make.

[@GladwinHans]

Awesome setup 🙏

[@BrianBondAudio]

Thanks!
