soundboard recordings
« on: December 07, 2003, 12:21:55 PM »
how do people get soundboard recordings from 'big' bands, ie. the ones that play big venues and don't have a relaxed atmosphere about taping like small bands do? do the sound engineers secretly make copies of the recordings and give them to their friends? can i just walk up to them and ask to patch in? are they partial to bribes? whats the deal??

in the case of Lou (Keller Williams sound guy), he puts a jar on the sbd that says: "nug for a plug"

Stealth patch. This concept has always intrigued me. I have to wonder how something like that happens.

Is it some kind of double team effort? Like some guy distract the board op for a minute or two while guy number two discretely plugs in? Every board is different, how can you be sure you have the right out?

Just seems crazy, I probably would never attempt it, but I'd love to watch one in action.

I would be very wary of stealth sbd patching...especially if you are the only or there are few tapers present.

also, remember that the sbd is mixed for that particular room, not for recording!

fyi, a few years ago after the band I work for stopped sbd patching, we noticed that the house sound guy had patched a deck from the sbd...ever since we purposefully turn down all sbd feeds in case someone else gets a stupid idea into their head of sneaking a sbd patch

I actually got a sbd recording of the Dave Matthews Cover Band because I was recording the opener (of course, I stopped the tape after a few songs because I didn't really want a copy of a freakin cover band). ;)
