Terri Schehr Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 What about not releasing recaps to the unwashed rabble? That lasted one year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoValves Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Love the irony that the same crowd who gets all moist reminiscing about "getting my face melted off" by brash, loud G Bugle lines are now deeply concerned about hearing damage for everyone because of the volume. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Gets all moist" and "deeply concerned about hearing damage for everyone" are your editorial words. Can't speak for anyone else here... but I'm fine with acoustic loud. Including B-flat loud. Carolina Crown in 2009 and 2013 in particular, Cadets in 2007... those horn lines pinned me to the wall. Among other examples of the any-key era. But I'm not a fan of "artificial" loud. Scrap the sideline microphones... let those young performers play. Edited January 16, 2020 by Fran Haring 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an example of something they brought to Finals week - obviously no small test market - and bailed on it in a quick moment. Frankly, my weak example is the only one i remember - EVA! Yea, I give. Your point stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karuna Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 4 hours ago, Jeff Ream said: just because a mic is there doesn't mean its always on. non-responsive. shotgun mics are only there to capture the full ensemble. 70-80 brass players need no amplification. if you remove them there's no need to worry about whether they're turned on or not. if you can't play FFF with good tone quality, you shouldn't be faking it with amplification. as i have posted many times, just eliminate wireless mics entirely. limit mic placement to "in front of the front-sideline". you can still amplify small ensembles and soloists. you will have far better sound quality at a lower cost (wired is much better sound). and most of the "tech issues" evaporate because corps just won't care about the crowded wireless environment in which they're performing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause the packaging should be at least as loud as the commercials. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
