the sound

anyone else notice the sound was phenominal?

i dont know if it was the soundsystem itself or a better mix job.. everything was dead on.

chad's snare was a bit loud, but that might also be because of the slapback

Yeah, I noticed that too. Really crisp and clean, and Nick and SA's voices didn't sound high like they usually do live. And I could hear SA's turntables quite well too. Really great show!

During This Too Shall Pass this was especially noticeable. I couldn't really hear a whole lot from either of the basses. That was very disappointing. It better be fixed up for whatever release it is that they're doing.

yeah man. it took a lot out of the show. you cant have a show where you cant hear pnut. it was so sad. to see him up there giving it his all and thinking everyone can hear him.

the life was sucked out of the first two sets. when the whole place should have been going off dancing and getting funky, everyone was standing there staring, and then clapping when the song was over.

you didnt notice on the heavier stuff because it was big and loud and the bass drum fille out the sound.. but on all the funky shit, and the reggae shit, it was all drums and guitar.. and even on one song i remember it was all drums and vocals for a while.

the sound guys must have had inner ear monitors or something because they were ignoring the mix that came out of the speakers.

i agree with ray that the bass was faint. i'd say the higher end of the bass was faint. the lower end was there though. i also thought the crashes(or maybe it was the high hat) was over powering as well.

depends on where you were in the venue... everything sounded good right under the huge speakers that were above the stage... i was on the floor right under the speakers on tims side, the bass was fuckin kickin right there.

chads drums were the best sounding part of the whole show. i felt like i was getting struck by lightning when he'd hit those floor toms and i fucking loved it.

If goat can hear it, I'm sure it will definetly be in that hi def audio

yeah, i am sure being up front made a lot of difference. you could probably hear it coming from the monitors and his amp too.

but from the sides and back it wasnt there. every once and a while you did hear a lower note..

but most of the low notes you hear in these videos is from the bass drum and toms.

but it should not even be an issue. you could not hear him. that is unforgiveable.

Hey man I heardyou sayin that in a couple of other threads, and that definately sucks. Do you think 311 knows about it?
