Allen & Heath Mixing Masterclass
Sun Infonet recently hosted a Mixing Masterclass for Allen & Heath led by Dave McDonald, a renowned sound engineer who has worked on world tours with the likes of Adele, Sigor Ros, Florence, and the machine and Frank Ocean. The one-day event took place in Mumbai and Bengaluru and was attended by a mix of 30 to 32 audio/sound engineers, owners of rental companies and audio engineering students.
The workshop was divided into three parts, starting with a pre-show set-up, including how to design the showlife, the challenges that could arise and what made McDonald choose dLive. The second part of the workshop showed how to perform a soundcheck, mixing instruments, configuration, placement of instruments, creating snapshots and grouping of channels. The Masterclass ended with a presentation on tips on how to approach a show and make it successful, including the use of FX engines and changing screens.
Talking about the event, Amar Dhar, a sound engineer from Crescendo in Dimapur, said, “I have learnt a lot from Dave McDonald. This Masterclass was different from the others I have attended in the past. Sun Infonet focused only on the content and not on the mixer. Thank You team Sun Infonet for conducting this ‘Mixing Masterclass’ on Live Sound Mixing”.
