Blink Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I think you have already spotted the problem "One guess is our Sound Guy likes a bass heavy tone, so lots of time spent on kick drum & high in the mix. My bass is then getting lost in this area of EQ but might be miles off the mark." I suspect that too many other instruments are occupying your frequency range and your sound guy is trying to boost your top end to be able to hear you. A loud kick drum with lots of reverb will kill anything in the same frequency range. Suggest to your sound guy that you start by turning things down (and reducing reverb) and not up!

largo Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 Thanks everybody for their comments & advice, especially Jacko 😀 Think first thing is to borrow a wireless system & get my FOH EQ sorted, although difficult to do as I’m wired to my IEM. Fingers crossed that means turning the bass drum down too 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelus Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 You’ve still not told us where and when you’re next gig is? Might save you having to go wireless for the night. Jacko can play a few songs and you and I can discuss the sound. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
