Recording Particle

[Chuck]

Particle is coming to town in a couple of weeks. Do they have vocals or just all instrumentals? I'm wondering if setting up stage lip would work for these guys?

[Shawn]

they have vocals now. stage lip might not be a good idea.

[Chuck]

OK, thanks.

Most of 'em use IEMs too.

Hmmm... The venue they are playing in Colorado Springs is a concrete and steel echo chamber. I may just do the stage lip thing if they are cool with it. Are they cool with SBD patches?

You won't get a good recording at the stage lip.  Too much stuff goes through DIs and there is not much stage sound aside from drums b/c the bands uses in-ear monitors.

No SBD access unless you get a formal OK from mgmt. which is very unlikely b/c they generally travel with a multitracker.
