[QUOTE="Robert Lofgren, post: 98475, member: 2447"] Re: Event Board Recording SNAFU If this audio is the actual board feed I'm surprised by the uneveness(?) between the mics and also compared to the 2-track. Some mics also sound distorted?! Could it be that the videographer had set his levels wrong or if the feed level had rised during the show or after soundcheck? If it sounded like that in the pa during the event I'd take away 50-75% of the price depending on how the importance of the video feed was comunicated. Otherwise I'd take away 25-50%. However, even if you provide a feed the responsibility is still with the reciever (aka. the videographer) to monitor and check the incoming sound and levels into his equipment and tell you of any problems with the feed. In the future it is best to have written agreements on what is provided/required for some event. Even if it sounds like a simple event. Just a simple thing like mechanical rights are forgotten all the time. Unless written in contract you own the mechanical rights to the audio recording and the video producer are not allowed to use the audio without a written agreement from you! And I also have to mention the fee and permissions to use others music for a produced video ;) An interesting thing is also the rights of the performers. The producer actually needs the performers permission as well. It's a djungle out there :) [/QUOTE]
