[QUOTE="Spenser Hamilton, post: 8284, member: 2272"] This is a question for providers, I welcome input from the many talented BEs on the board as well though. I have a short story to go along with this, what I am wondering what the status quo is for allowing BEs access to change system processor settings? I've attached a poll. Long story short: We recently had a show where the BE disabled output EQ on the processor, spent some time EQing the system on his mix outputs(essentially recreating what was already supposed to happen in the processor) and then complain all night that the rig sounded bad (it did sound bad). We do a lot of work in the room in question, and usually the BEs are able to get outstanding mixes out of the rig, so I'm not convinced it's any fault on our part. Talking to some local colleagues, several were surprised that we even allowed the engineer to make changes to the DSP, however, many riders specify that the engineer has access to the processor. I've even seen one or two riders lately that state "system tech is NOT to ask band to reduce output level under any circumstance". What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
