On-the-Spot CD Release
By Sarah Benzuly

Out the Door, That Night's Show In-Hand

Advances in technology have made the ability to do our jobs easier and - more importantly - faster. Why FedEx when you can e-mail? Why wait until you get home to call loved ones when you can do it on your cell phone while stuck in traffic. Go to the bank anymore? Why? You can hit an ATM or hop online to transfer funds. However, this technology has altered our collective minds - we want it now.

The same idea is now pulsing through the live sound industry. Why wait for a band to release a live CD or - better yet - hop online the day after the concert and download the set's tracks from their Website when you can shell out $20 for a CD of that show as you walk out the door.

Kevin Browning's Recording Chain

.

"I take a stereo matrix feed from the console, preferably Midas, and run it into a pair of channels on the Allen & Heath 14:4 Mix Wizard.

I do not assign the subgroups to the house, only the recording. That way, when I find I need a little more drums to tape, for example, I can boost them without crushing the house mix. If vocals seem to be excessively hot going to tape, I will increase the entire band behind them to even and smooth things out.
