Re: Yamaha Stage Mix 2.0 News




Yeah, that is fun...


Some time back, we were doing the obligatory small-town festival with the M7 and my little remote rig. One of our younger guys had one of the organizers cornered by the M7 and showing off to her its cool digital features in a manner that was intended to show how smart he was rather than what the console was about (yeah, the pretty blond lady had nothing to do with it). As this kid's making his pitch, I grabbed the tablet and pushed up and down a couple of virtual faders, with the desk reacting normally. The young man and the lady jumped back, naturally. I kept bumping faders around, further confounding the two, until finally, I pushed a group of eight faders into a smiley face. It was at that point that the WOMAN turned to me (several feet away and tablet hidden) and asked, "are YOU making it do that??". I showed her the tablet and how it worked and turns out, the young lady had an IT background at the local community college, so I gave her the tour. Young Man didn't look quite as smart at this point (but I think there was some "fraternizing" later on, nonetheless....)
