Wasn’t really sure if this should go here or the lounge but tonight I had something interesting happen. We soundchecked and when I went out front I was like “yuck - I sound bad” but I KNEW my presets didn’t sound that way. We use the same sound guy all the time and I know I told him initially (thanks to a post I read out here) that I was sending a line level signal and that I’d handle my own EQ. Apparently he took it upon himself to add EQ to my signal and it sounded real bad - trebly, fizzy, just really awful. I politely asked him to set my channel flat and when he did - BAM - instantly I was hearing what I expected to hear. So I guess just a note for any new people that are playing live - touch base with the sound guy before you do and make sure he or she is on the same page with you.
