    How to eliminate feedback on my stage monitor

    If you like everything else about your guitar, but are getting microphonic feedback from your pickups, you could get the pickups wax potted. I would recommend having a professional guitar luthier do it, but it will take care of the microphonic (non-musical) feedback, allowing you to use your...

    Anyone using Austin Buddy presets live?

    Totally use the Keef patch live, and it kills. I only made some adjustments for delay and reverb. Love Austin’s work.

    What is your go-to amp for building hard rock/metal patches?

    Spawn Nitrous, drop the bass a little and crank up the mids to taste. Punches right through a live mix!

    Guitar Setup Help Needed

    I think what you mean is the neck “relief”. The relief is the curvature of the neck, and is adjusted by loosening or tightening the trussrod. When I set my guitars up, I start by putting a new set of strings on, and giving them a good stretch. When I feel they are sufficiently settled, I...

    In ears with AX8

    Alclair Crankmasters. These things have 5 drivers and sound amazing.

    Looking for IEM alternatives/solution

    I've been using AlClair CrankMasters for over a year now, and they are awesome! I agree, the bite block is important. I would contact the company you had mold your current pair, and see if they will cut you a deal since they messed up the mold in the first place. If that doesn't work, Alclair...

    Austin buddy

    I go direct to the board when playing out. At practice we use a QSC KW152. Live my band uses Shure IEM.

    Position of wireless receiver

    I mount my wireless (Sennheiser G3) in the back of my 4 space rack, behind my Peterson rackmount strobe tuner. I’ve never had a problem.

    Bass Tones dissapearing in a live mix

    Wiseburger, the low/high cuts can be found in both the Amp block and the Cab block. Try one or both, see which you like better. (I use both, because I'm weird like that. If it was me, I might start my bass eq with a low cut up to 35-40hz. This often times tightens things up a little because...

    Bass Tones dissapearing in a live mix

    It sounds like you and your guitarists are trying to cover the same "sonic ground". If you guys are all on Fractal gear, then this should be easy for you guys to remedy, as all the tools you need are in the box. The three of you need to get together and carve out some frequency space for...

    Power Conditioner help

    I've used a variety of different Furman units over the past 15 years or so, and have never once had an issue. Every piece of gear my band plugs in goes through a Furman. I realize that it's not necessary at every place we play, but they help to show the current fluctuation and give the guys...

    Blink 182 - First Date | MIXTEST

    Love that breakdown tone... what cab are you using with the BEv1?

    How many run direct with no onstage cab?

    Me and my lead guitarist have been doing this for years. We go fractal xlr (mono) out to our board and then use the aux outs to run individual IEM mixes for the band. IEM are great, particularly for keeping stage sound to a minimum. This allows instruments that need mics (percussion, vocals...

    3 Sigma Audio Electric IRs

    I think their IRs are great! I've been using a bunch of them. I was most excited about the Mesa 2x12, as it sounds very very much like my favorite analog cab. Though, their Dr Z Best cab sounds killer too.
