FOH mixing masterclass with Mike Manders
28-11-2024A good Front of House mix is essential to the audience's experience during a live performance. A balanced mix ensures that the artist's energy comes across, while minimising distracting elements.
Whether you are an experienced technician or still at the beginning of your career, this masterclass offers valuable insights and practical knowledge that you can apply immediately.
Programme
We cover both technical aspects and the creative choices that determine a successful live mix.
Mixing toolbox: From microphone to speaker. What, why and how?
Mixing techniques: The fundamental concepts such as EQ, compression and effects.
Workflow: Working quickly and efficiently in a live environment, from preparation to show.
Communication: The importance of good communication and cooperation with colleagues, performers and entourage.
This master class will be given by Mike Manders. Mike has been behind the mixing desk for about 30 years and has been the FOH mixer of the popular Dutch duo Suzan & Freek for several years. In the past, he has worked for Rowwen Hèze and Miss Montreal, among others.
During this session, Mike goes back to the essence of live mixing. Using multitrack recordings and a real-life setup, he shares his knowledge and experience.
The presentation will be given in Dutch.
