Yeah, I've never liked their little fiddly menus. For most people though, I guess they set it up once and then forget about the settings and just start and stop the thing. Ah thanks for the LUTage. I shall have a look and see what I can achieve. I've got some camera recording to do in a proper lit environment, so I'll look into given them a whirl with some of that footage. Yeah, I keep saying to him theres a compromise to be made. He wasn't DSLR performance and DOF, in a small package, with low light performance, with superb sound via external mics. It just doesn't exist.

Ah yeah, I never thought about setting between the NTSC/PAL - I merely asked the drummer the question, he scrolled through and said there was nothing there... which there won't be if he was in the wrong video mode. I'll read up on the manuals for the drummers GP so I can set what I want on it (and set it back post gig so he doesn't get peeved with me when his subsequent footage is all grey and drab). As always on a gig, it was literally 20 seconds breathing space to set everything up! I have just realised when I was reading your response that I had typoed above. I'm running 24fps (or more accurately 23.97). Doh. Always interested in having a look at LUTs - there's some good ones out there... but I find the majority are pants and money makers for "influencers" or whatever you call these YouTube types. My other drummer mate is in a Max/H8 dilemma at the moment, shall check out this Insta360 and see what that's about.

I just wish there was a GoPro that did 25fps to get rid of that digital look and look a bit more cinematic. The bulk of the above is at 25fps obviously but there is only so much GP you can drop in before sync issues become obvious. Re: profile. Ah thought as much, my GoPro is pre all that, I've heard of Protune - was talking with my mate about it (he flies drones) - but obviously he got a lot more bandwidth to play with in higher light levels. Naturally, I guess you know that I'm running user profiles on the DSLRs so I can grade and subsequently LUT. Yeah - my experience of GoPro footage in low light is not great - and of course topping and tailing using a profile is going to make that worse as you say... I think that's why I was so interested in the low light performance you've got out of your Max. I think that's the first bit of footage I've seen in low light which is actually pretty decent with fairly low noise levels.

Cheers! As usual, battling with low light and recovering crushed blacks in the shadows. I'm really trying to get into nailing colour grading - it proper difficult! I don't proclaim to be a pro by an means but am enjoying the learning and experimentation with the gear that I've got. I'm quite pleased with a couple of the angles on the above but again, when you only got 8 bit video to work with, there's only so much you can do. The GoPro is especially difficult as the footage is overly saturated and sharp - the exact opposite that you need for that cinematic feel that I am striving for (and don't even get me started on frame rates!) The GoPro was the drummers so I don't know what can be done in terms of dropping the saturation and sharpness... I think I've heard of it being able to be done. My GoPro is so old it's pretty basic on the options... and it's low light capability is pretty tragic.

Just started going through the footage from NYE and will be putting together a little medley showreel together from it. Meanwhile here's one I did for the singer primarily - as he wanted to know how good his take on Prince was. DSLRs and GoPro 6 on the kit. (I think you can tell as the image has a different look and feel about it).

Ive not seen one of those LWA1000s ever. And isn't the Hellborg discontinued? Thomann flogged off all their stock at ridiculous (low) prices anyway.

^ There's your answer then.

Design a cable or custom lynx are who I tend to go to nowadays.

They haven’t done too well on the amp front have they?

Have you got any other wireless devices happening? Ones in the 863-865Mhz region specifically (assuming your IEM system is ch70). Also - any radio at the venue? DJ? Does the singer absolutely HAVE to be wireless?

Are you handy with a soldering iron?

What radio is she using? And why did you turn the stage monitor down? With the isolation on her IEMs, it shouldn't make that much difference to her (although there will be some bleed I'm sure as she's not using customs).

Ashdown make amps, not basses. Why would you want Ashdown on your headstock? It's like Markbass trying to make basses. Hasn't gone too well for them so far. I know that people are going to say Fender and Gibson make/or have made both... but they are amongst the oldest in the business when choice was somewhat limited. Out of interest, how many amp manufacturers have actually succeeded and continue to have a foot in both camps...? (Vox aren't really in it anymore... neither are Musicman).

You wouldn't be enough of a party band - did you come up with the goods in the end? That's all that matters.

You have hat. This changes EVERYTHING.

Perfect! A jazz bass where the neck doesn’t move. Glad you did the inserts. Plus the back looks a lot more pro as opposed to screws.

NYE blast over Kiss GB Spitfire in Kemper running a SSL channel strip profile.

Your version of Kiss seems pretty exciting.

Thats about how much they are. Reliable wireless comes at a cost I'm afraid.

My back hurts looking at that pic!

I want her jacket!!

Popular choice!

It all depends upon your desk and how many auxes it has... but a set of ZS10s and a Behringer P2 is a brilliant entry (not entry performance) point for the money.

Oh man, he's turning into a monster singer. Every gig he does he does something new... and that fact that he can sing higher than all the females is hilarious. Damn right, no other way... so easy.

Just uploaded this from my NYE gig - enjoy. Maybe this explain my shallow stage comment earlier - we were pretty much standing on the dance floor!
