Before the majority of all performances at Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, the artists, the artists technicians, and the local staff participate in a sound check. Most people have a basic idea of a sound check but what is it really for? Truly, it is for the benefit of everyone involved, including the audience. Over the course of about an hour the performers work closely with the audio engineer and the monitor engineer to craft the best sound possible.

There is so much detail in this job that it requires two staff members and two completely different audio consoles. The audio engineer is responsible for the overall sound of the show and what the audience hears. The monitor engineer is responsible for what the band hears on stage. The audio engineer and monitor engineer are usually from our local Scottsdale Arts staff but sometimes the artists will travel with their own engineers.

Every venue that an artist plays is slightly different, some are more reverberant, some are very dry. A band can adjust their energy and approach to songs to adapt to fit the energy of the venue and the audience. Additionally, these differences from venue to venue can change the sound in their onstage monitors.

When a band is on tour, their time on stage is usually the only time they get to work on new music, new arrangements of live songs, or just to jam. Often, the technicalities of a sound check are tidied up in the first 30 minutes. After that, most bands will continue to play until dinner break before a show. Sometimes the bands can get really into their jam session and our stage manager will have to interrupt them, so we can open the doors to the venue on time to our patrons.

As a traveling musician, every night the sound of your band is in the hands of two engineers that you may or not have an existing relationship with. It is of utmost importance that our Scottsdale Arts staff uses the short time they have during soundcheck to establish a sense of trust with the artists. We do this by being proactive, prepared and accommodating to anything that we can. If the artist feels comfortable on our stage then the audience is in for an excellent show.

The Center has offered public sound checks in the past, we would love to hear about an experience you may have had at one of our sound checks. If you would like to share, let us know at [email protected]

The single most important factor to be determined with any virtual sound check is the choice between a stereo mix VxS individual multi-track stems. The answer will turn upon the amount of FOH and monitor mixing and processing a remote console will be managing.

1) When FOH personnel are controlling the stage gear placement, FOH/monitoring processing and mixing then Multi-track stems will be necessary for a virtual sound check. Generally speaking, unless the console management is provided by an employed band associate the performance will fall way short of the original recording: and in the final analysis that is the target we are all aiming for.

1.) You get into a location, set everything up and check before the band arrives

2.) After soundcheck, when the band is done , you could take some time to refine some settings (Example: vocal eq/deessing without having the singer stress her/his voice longer than needed)

3) Practice fingermemory,surface setup, trying FX at home

1) Subjugating all channel processing to external personnel with a sound check at the venue will greatly reduce the probably of a satisfactory mix.

2) Calibration of FOH to work well with a stereo track of the show is a much more dependable process that can be well done in the rush of a pre-show sound check.

But 98% of all bands provide me with single sources that will be combined by me with the help of a mixing desk to get a quality sound that makes the artist happy. And having virtuel soundcheck, defined as mixing a bunch of signals without the need of bothering the the band or even an orchestra, is a really helpful tool for us, the soundguys. And being able to do that with just an SQ5 and a USB stick is simply quite wonderful.

Today, I'm writing to the musicians. One way to take control over your music is by maximizing your sound check. I've outlined how you can maximize this process so your monitor mixes are tighter, your house mixes are tighter, and your confidence is higher.

The sound check process is the one of the important parts of your stage work. The purpose of the sound check is ensuring the right sounds get to the sound booth, to the monitors, and to the house speakers.

The first step of the sound check is called a line check. During this process, the sound tech verifies that all of the equipment on the stage is sending a signal to the mixer. They will verify each instrument/vocal one at a time. This process requires all members on the stage to be quiet when it's not your turn.

The second step is setting your volume. Technically speaking, the sound tech sets what is called the gain structure of each instrument/voice. The sound tech can do this either one by one or while your band is playing. I've used both methods depending on the situation (usually constrained by time) and the setup. Therefore, ask your sound tech which method he wants you to use. Once this process is complete, they will have a rough volume setting for you but it's not totally indicative of the final mix so don't think too much as to how it sounds in the house mix.

In the case of spot monitors / floor monitors, the sound tech will work with each person one at a time. Point to the musician you need in your monitor and then give the sound guy the up/down/ok signal.

At this point, you should at least play one or two songs that are to be played during the service. During this time, the sound tech will tweak your sounds as necessary through the use of EQ and other effects. This is a crucial time for them to get your sound right.

You might see your sound tech walking randomly around the room at some point. Don't think they have finally cracked. They are checking how the mix sounds in different parts of the room. The dynamics of the room play a part in how they mix the music. They might also have to turn down your overall monitor volume if it's negatively affecting the sound in the house. If they do this and you can't hear a particular sound any more, talk with them about the issue and see what can be done to rectify the situation.

One final note on the sound check process, when you play songs for the sound tech to set a good mix, play songs you know well and don't stop and start. It's not the time to start discussing arrangement changes with the band. Save that for later during practice if you have to do it at all.

Finally, your sound guy might have a slightly different process for your sound check. Follow his direction and also have him/her give you a written outline of their sound check process so you can share it with the rest of the band.

I listen to my music with Sound check > ON - all the time, but I noticed that the sound from Apple Music is not so clear as the sound from Tidal integration in the Sonos app. By clear, I mean not so bright highs, not so defined lower frequencies, and also mids.

In addition to permanently damaging your hearing, loud sounds increase health risks to the community by disrupting sleep in a way that can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, even if you are used to a sound.

It was on his deathbed that this man told the story of his conversion, the result of God speaking to him through a single verse of Scripture uttered by Spurgeon. When Spurgeon preached in that building a day or two later, it was to a crowd of 23,654 people. But such is the power of Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin not only of the world, not only of a potential 23,654 people, but of one lone man working in a building when a preacher came to test the acoustics. This man will be forever grateful that when Spurgeon stood up front to do a sound check, he did not simply count to ten!

2nd generation Google Nest Protects can automatically test their speaker and horn monthly with Sound Check. During Sound Check, each Nest Protect in your home makes a short sound and listen with its microphone to confirm that its speaker and horn are working. If Sound Check notices that you're home, your Protects will wait until you've left to run the test.

Run a manual Safety Checkup test as soon as possible to confirm that each Protect can speak and sound the alarm. It's important that you verify that you can hear each Nest Protect in your home. Double check by running the test a second time. If a Nest Protect doesn't speak or sound the alarm during a Safety Checkup, replace it immediately.

Note: If your Nest Protect's speaker doesn't work, you won't hear its voice during a Heads-Up alert or Emergency Alarm, but the horn will still be able to sound during an Emergency Alarm.

As a result, preparation time is often a messy, hodgepodge of setting up, jamming, practicing, sound checking and rehearsing. Frequently, I see teams trying to do two or more simultaneously! Predictably, each is done poorly and inefficiently. Huge chunks of our precious preparation time slip through the cracks as a result. 006ab0faaa
