[QUOTE="Andrew Prince, post: 100897, member: 1808"] Re: strange or not strange! I haven't played my kit for a long time. I also cheated from a pro audio perspective by investing in a Roland V-Drums kit. Ooops! Haha. Mine don't. They start with UB40, Kingston Town. The band groan at the use of that track so it only stays on long enough to figure out whether the tops and subs are working. Then I switch to virtual sound check, recorded from the previous gig. Then I let the band play something of their choosing and I tweak away throughout their rehearsal time. Occasionally I feel the need to re-balance the drums which I will do with four examples of [I]'that fill'[/I] from In The Air Tonight. If I was still using the old Soundcraft LX7 desk then obviously I wouldn't do things this way. But the feature set of the X32 just lends itself to this kind of workflow and certainly helps with stress levels for everyone involved (nothing worse than a stressed out band running late).
