Or just thrash the poo poo out of everything, what the hell kind of show has an unspoken rule that if anything touches the ground it’s ruined. He could say “you break it you bought it” but just expecting you to pay a fine without letting you keep it is bullshit.

quote:I did as I often do and threw my mic/stand into the audience so they could sing along to the song it was most likely they knew the chorus to... Their mic. Soundguy is over reacting but out of a visceral reaction of seeing a band toss his stuff around. When people are upset they focus on emphasising extraneous details to validate the emotion (“look you’ve broken it!”) but it’s not really about the condition of the mic at all. Write an apology to the sound guy acknowledging that it’s upsetting when some band he’s doing sound for acts cavalier about his poo poo, mention that you realise this probably happens a lot with many bands he works with, use the words "respect" and "fair" at least once in the email, and THEN offer to buy the mic. massive spider fucked around with this message at 09:53 on Jul 25, 2019 |

Its a cheap rear end mic, don't loving worry about it, just stop responding to them, you'll literally never see him again.That being said, don't throw things off of stages, especially when you're way up above them, a mic, or mic stand could hurt somebody, even in some small way, then they sue the festival, and your band pays their premium (usually 10k per 1 million dollars worth of damages) if they don't try to sue you for more. Moral of the story, don't throw poo poo off stage, and he can piss off over an 80 dollar mic.

If you're in a small music scene you absolutely 100% will see someone related to that thing again. Even just saying the words "well we'll never see them again" doubles the odds you will.

As someone who provides my personal PA and gear for a lot of small shows, I'd need to see what happened before being 100% on my thoughts. My first instinct is "don't treat my gear like poo poo, rear end in a top hat!", but it's also meant to be a show, not a formal recital. poo poo happens. There's a difference between someone grabbing the mic stand and pointing it out over the audience for a singalong (and dropping it) and someone having no respect for someone else's gear and flinging it out off the stage. You're not big rock stars writing off these things on a massive expense budget. That's someone's livelihood. It's something THEY have to replace. I've had mic stands buckled by drunk assholes falling over them, joints wrecked because they don't know how to adjust them, cables ruined because assholes set their guitars down upright with them plugged in crushing the jacks, mics dented from being dropped and that poo poo adds up over time. Don't get me wrong, I expect wear and tear and accidents happen. Hell, it's not a good show if things aren't getting crazy. But if you're treating my gear with no respect because it's not your problem we're going to clash. Sure, it sounds like the sound guy went full autistic screech mode and should have handled it better but there's a point where you see the same things happening to your gear again and again and reach boiling point. It may be a lovely $80 mic, but it's $80 he's got to find now. I'll admit that I've over-reacted to rear end in a top hat bands who have trashed my gear in the past so maybe I'm biased, but respect peoples stuff. They're helping you live your dream up there.

Slightly late, but the THR10 takes pedals, from light overdrive to full on gently caress you fuzz, like a champ. The only problem I have with it is that (stock) it doesn't have speaker outs, and sometimes I want to feel air pushed out of my 1x12. Luckily, that's where my Hotone nano amps come in, but, still. It's the principle of the thing. The THR series really make recording on the quiet easy, though, so huge points in its favor for that.

It might work ok, it might not, but speaker level output and headphone output aren’t the same thing by a long shot.

The only problem I have with it is that (stock) it doesn't have speaker outs, and sometimes I want to feel air pushed out of my 1x12. I've got the THR10x and the THR5a and they really are incredible little amps that are amazing for bedroom level jamming and recording. Good for very small rooms too as they can kick out a lot more than you expect. Like you, my only problem with them is the lack of line output so I can't put it into a PA. Yes, you can use the headphone output but that signal is optimised for headphones and doesn't always play nice with speakers or PAs. I also have an issue where there is horrendous noise if I run it into a PA unless I run it off batteries. I've tried different PSUs and even a small mod I found on a forum, but it's simply unuseable unless I fill it with 8 x aa batteries for gigs. I gigged it once (on batteries and via headphones into PA) and it sounded incredible. A real shame, because if if had a proper line out (and maybe a pedal switching option) it would honestly be perfect for me

Good news! The THR does have a footswitch available to work with your patches and even interface with the THR Editor for the libraries. Bad news! It's kinda sorta expensive.

Been sent a few songs to collab on, they sound decent for premixes. However, none were recorded to a click and have massive tempo variance. I'm so used to playing to programmed drums or whatnot its hurting my brain. Its me, I'm the stupid music poo poo

Attempting to get in on a live jam vibe after the fact sounds loving painful tbh

Attempting to get in on a live jam vibe after the fact sounds loving painful tbh This is so true. I occasionally drum for a duo who are... different. Ok, they're terrible and "timing" is a concept that happens with other bands, not them. Absolute amatuer hour, but one of them has learning difficulties, they have loads of energy and are loved on the local circuit as a quirky "WTF did I just hear" band. The strange thing is, when I drum with them I can "feel" when they're going to do something strange and feel almost tuned in to the terrible, terrible random timing they have. If I listen back and try to dub over it I can't do it. Dog_Meat fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Jul 27, 2019 |

To make matters harder its currently a cello and vocals. The cellist moved back to her home country and due to the nature of the instrument a bunch of notes are flat, but only noticeably when I try to add any other instruments  .It sounds great and whatever I'm expected to be doing is ruining it.

Tune your instrument to match hers. I find when I play on wonky tracks like that, I just keep rehearsing it over and over until I can match it. Or you can do it the Butch Vig way and punch in line by line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APHX-9ZQ7x0
