Great sound on stage, sounding terrible through FOH ?

Hi !
Once upon a time, there was a boy playing with those huge W/D/W rigs, sounded huge on stage BUT oh so terrible through FOH :(
It took me quite a while to find out all the technical reasons why and how speaker miking work and so on.

Since Fractal introduced the Ultra and now the FM3 , problems solved because I play In ear Monitors live and studio speakers at home.

  • For smaller gigs I bring the FM3 only and be done with it...
  • For bigger gigs I bring my Marshall Silver Jubilee as core sound and the FM3 Speaker Sim + post FX

Very curious to hear / see what you have done to deal with them 'nice' sound guys telling you that the guitars are to loud on stage :(

Here is a video of my development over the years ;)

 
Great sound FOH is the most important thing. One of the hardest thing for many musicians is to listen to the whole MIX, not just their instrument.
