Soundcraft UI16 Drum Mix

[@chucksaeger7500]

Excellent Bob. I love seeing guitarists mixing the sound for drummers. Keep those cymbals out of my ears so my tinnitus doesn’t get any worse!

Thanks Chuck. If you play in a band, you are going to live with tinnitus. I believe it is unavoidable. Of course, not standing in front of two twin reverbs, each turned up to 10 would help avoid the problem. Too late for me, however. Cymbals are killers, too.

Bonjour recod multipiste ? C possible avec Ui12 ??

[@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer]

Wish I knew French. If you are asking about multitrack recording in the UI12 or UI16, the answer is no. You can only record the main stereo output.

Hey bob you can open RTA when mix EQ thanks

[@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer]

Indeed. It's a great tool for finding feedback, and those annoying frequencies.

Hi bob can you do a video how to set up a big Desktop mode I have trouble can’t find or what to do …thanks bob

[@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer]

I don't think the UI16 has Big D Mode. I'll check next time I have it on.

[@deanthepro]

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer thanks I think you right ui16 don’t have it if I knew I would buy the iu24

Hi . Are you running with subwoofers with this mix ? If so are you routing it thru aux ? How do you eq mix drums for master and for subwoofers on the PA system

[@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer]

This mix was done on my 5" studio monitors on my desk. It's just a simulation. I don't use aux fed subs on a gig. I use subs and crossovers, usually at 100Hz. I don't hear any improvement using aux fed subs vs crossovers, and it seems like a lot of extra effort. That's just me. I've heard great mixes with and without aux fed subs.
