I have been working with audio hardware and software since the late 1980's, using varying hardware and software tools on MacOS to record, edit and mix music. In the late 90's I started engineering live music for local bands in clubs and started to provide this service again to the local Los Angeles music scene working primarily with headless mixers that use the iOS to provide the UI interface to the mixer. Using my 12" iPad Pro I configure, edit and mix the live audio using various hardware and software systems. Currently I am using the Soundcraft UI and Mackie series of headless systems.I am familiar with creating monitor mixes, using sub out, dealing with feedback, adjusting eq settings for the most optimal sound and to ensure frequencies do not become muddy to enable a clear and layered optimized for the house the band.
