[QUOTE="Nick Boulton, post: 92700, member: 252"] Re: EDM Shows I've just come off of a fairly large dance festival in Manchester (UK) where I was system and FoH tech. We had two Dj setups that would flip flop, each of which had stereo monitoring all run to the monitor board (Avid SC48, overkill but our sole live band specced it!). We also ran 4 channels of RF mic, routed to FoH and monitor boards rather than via the Dj mixers. The vast majority of work involved was in system setup and limiting to ensure that the DJs would have some dynamics, but we could keep them inside the quite strict noise requirements. To this end, we put in 12 l'acoustics v-dosc and 12 sb28 subs (as a centre block in cardioid mode) for stage 3, and 14 vdosc and 16 subs (also cardioid but in a more traditional left-right configuration) on stage 2. DJs were run through Xta 548s because of the brickwall limiting and dynamic eq available in each unit (dynamic eq allowed us to work around the A weighted limits with minimum disruption to the DJs sound) [/QUOTE]
