preparing studio tracks for live performance

Post by rustig » Mon May 21, 2012 3:12 pm

Hi guys,


I`m working on my new live performance and i was wondering how you guys do it.
The problem that i have is that i use a lot of parallel processing and normally when i build a track this will glue my mix nice together.
But when i want too record separate stems for live use all my busses will only effect the the separate sounds.
I can create a drum bus with a parallel bus in my performance set but if this is not necessary i rather dont do it.

This is a little bit how i do it, I only record my stems one at a time with resample thru my busses and some mastering plugs on my master channel.

Thanks

Best

Consider the fact that a rock band's album may also have such compression and other processing for the same reason.

My armature advice is to not worry too much about subtlety, play loud and throw in a few wanky solos.

Your probably right.
Just want my sound stand up against the dj playing before me or after me.


Thanx mate
