[QUOTE="Steve Milner, post: 26787, member: 9"] Re: StageMix for LS9 released I got the chance to work with Kirby Yarbrough tonight, mixing a big band on his LS9 for a local community event. He provided the event with a really well thought-out powered QSC system with all the bells and whistles, along with an LS9-32 accompanied with an iPad2 for running StageMix. We had musicians trickling in somewhat at the last minute (15 piece horn section Big Band... including an awesome 92 year old trumpet player!) and had to hit the ground running with no sound check at all. . . Their director just picked up the mic and introduced them, and counted off the first chart... off we go! I got levels roughed in quickly on the console (located side stage under a tent due to logistical & climatic obstacles) and then grabbed the iPad and took a walk into the audience... where I stayed for most of the rest of the night !!
