[QUOTE="Lee Brenkman, post: 129914, member: 154"] Re: Battle of the FOH's FWIW At a big deal wedding last Sauturday my associate Ted was confronted by a frozen, would not respond digital console less than one half hour before the guests arrived. Luckily for him the venue "boneyard" in the basement includes their old Allen and Heath GL series monitor console and most of the old outboard gear from "pre digital". While the monitor guy finished dealing with the band on stage (they were by the way over an hour late for their load in and the stage plot sent by the leader was both wrong AND useless) the A&H , EQs comps and a Lexicon reverb were carried upstairs and installed before anyone knew that anything was wrong. The post fader monitor sends took the place of the matrices that usually feed the front fills, and three different zones of balcony fill. As my old Tour Manager would say, "we got home, we got paid and no one got hurt". BTW the A&H and "antique" outboard sounded just fine. [/QUOTE]
