Re: Digital Desk Processing Order?I had a show like that too. Interestingly this was one where the lead guitarist had a cabinet with four 10" drivers in it (looks like a Marshall stack's bottom half). It was two nights in a row and if the room was small the first night the next room was tiny. There was a guitar hotspot in the audience zone near my FOH position. That guy and his lead vocalist had me fighting feedback all night. Fortunately, cream rises and bands don't grow unless they learn how to manage their stage volume, except in rare cases like the one you mentioned. Most hip hop acts that don't have a live band, I get to control their stage volume as the guy mixing! I was the drummer in a live hip hop band this past weekend and it was nice having a competent soundman and crew out there working for me. They made it easy, but in return as long time musicians, the band knew how to behave and manage stage volume relatively well on their own. Its got to be a two way street!
