KISS

I worked with KISS this week, mixing their live satellite tour to promote their new album and tour, hitting 15 cities in the US and Canada. I was the broadcast sound mixer and also handled micing up Gene Simmons and the rest of the band, outfitting them with their IFB earbuds for their personal monitoring of their televised conversations, as well as operating the telephone “hybrid” systems to connect the multiple studios country wide.

It was quick work to have so many individual conversations with 15 different networks in just 2 hours time but it all went pretty well and served as great publicity for their show.

Worked with Incubus and Hoobastank mixing promotional content for the new X-Box 360 game “Halo 3 ODST.” They were nice guys and darn good gamers!

Live Sound Mixing at Nokia Live

Wednesday, September 16th, 2009

I’ve started working at the Nokia Theater at L.A. Live. A great new space in Downtown, next to the Staples Center where I help with audio for live concerts and broadcasts.

This is the audio control room, with a Studer Vista console. I especially like the touch-screens meters and controls!

Recently we mixed Stevie Wonder for a live taping of “The Brian McKnight Show.” Stevie was such a great guy, so fun and funny, and legendary!

Got a chance to work with Design FX remote recording systems and engineers. They were great guys and have a good system for big concert multi-track recording’s on big-budget events. Certainly not the small laptop system I use!
