Re: E-drums , stage monitors, and low end build up in FOH
I gotta ask if you only have one or two sends from the e-kit stereo or mono main out feeding one or two channels on the mixer with the whole
e-kit in those channels how would aux fed sub effect the e-kit? Wouldn't it sound weird? I dunno just asking, because I'm not a pro sound tech by any means, and just sharing my experience dealing will e-drummers that have I ran across in the past.
IME I've had a few e-drummers with some pretty whacked out drum kit patches that can wreck havoc on FOH mix and learned to use direct outs and mix them like you would if you had a miced out acoustic kit so you got more control at the mixer and are not at the mercy of the e-drummer with some crazy whacked out drum kit patch.
Not to mention the changing kits on every other song like a KB player that has different patch levels because he didn't take time to even out all the patches. The same applies to e-kits in my experience with them.
