I heard some comments from people about how impressed they were with the mixing desk at The Crooked Spire! Andy Onion is a magician in sound. He said radio mics for everyone would have been better (more money of course). His assistant had caught covid so wasn’t available (phew it got close to the team). The wheels came off one of the speakers and they wouldn’t let him drive onto consecrated ground in the churchyard (tombs underneath) but we managed to get his gear in the church on the Friday without too many mishaps. The church lighting (organised by the vicar) was atmospheric 17/11/2021 0 Comments After-Concert Blog – part 1(Our thoughts & feelings following on from the Concert in October – in five, easily digested chunks.)
We invited our cast of eight performers along to West Studios at Chesterfield College for rehearsals. It was ideal for what we needed although I couldn’t get the Wi-Fi working on my mac. We had a few community choir members turn up on the Friday and Harry Style (our Musical Director) worked well with them and they seemed to enjoy taking part. Tom (from Brampton Community Band) came and took photos (creating a little photo studio on site). 19/11/2020 0 Comments Sound Mixing for The Crooked SpireWell, I’m recovering from a two day hiatus where technology - although it has helped us create our work online - has also been causing us huge headaches.
I was appointed (I think by process of elimination?) to do the music mixing for The Crooked Spire project. I had hoped to have all the singers’ files for a few days while I mixed the music and songs. I had gradually built up the mixes of the music by saving rough drafts of the Logic Pro files as each item came to me. However, some of these only arrived on the day I was supposed to send them to the sound mastering engineer. So, I worked until 2 in the morning on the mixes (trying to do as much as possible on headphones.) |
