More than 1500 views - I never thought this thread could be interesting for so many people. But because of the growing interest I would like to add some more links to videos worth to listen (and watching...). Most of the vidoes are not explicite in-ear mixes, but their mix contains everything needed for a good in-ear mix. The videos will give you an idea how in-ear monitoring can sound and how a good sound can support the musicians. And certainly, the better the musicians perform, the better the sound. This will never change...
Most of the videos are missing "information" about the room and the audience. The musicians can hear well what happens on stage, but they have no idea how it sounds in the room and how the music / their playing translates to the room. This is not only the sound guy's job. In many situations musicians have to adjust their playing to the room. Two ambience microphones (or more) are a must. Enjoy the new videos! 5TH FLO. - LIVE AT BERKLEE - NAUGHTY/SAY MY NAME - FEAT.

i have my band that have 2 earmix units using mixes 41-48 and 49-56. I need to figure out just how to route things on my sl3 because I need to also use the physical aux mixes to run a couple of stage monitors directly from the board like old school. So I need to run earmix flex and stage monitor without earmix using physical auxes on the board. Hope that makes sense. The videos are awesome but I’m not seeing anywhere in them how to do this
|
Yes, it will be my pleasure to help you figure this out. Thanks for asking. This is the default AVB setting:
AVB 01-08 = MICS AVB 09-16 = MICS AVB 17-24 = MICS AVB 25-32 = MICS AVB 33+34 = AUX IN 1 AVB 35+36 = AUX IN 2 AVB 37+38 = TAPE IN AVB 39+40 = MAIN L/R AVB 41-48 = AUX 01-08 AVB 49-56 = AUX 09-16 AVB 57-64 = (not used) What you need to make is a simple shift. Your auxes 1-8 stay where they are, but auxes 9-16 should be routed to AVB 57-64 in order to have them on channels 9-16 of the EarMixers. Then AVB sends 49-56 can be filled with 8 signals like instruments (not mixes). This is the routing: AVB 41-48 = AUX 01-08 = wedges AVB 49-56 = [AVB 01-08] = EarMix channels 1-8 AVB 57-64 = AUX 09-16 = EarMix channels 9-16 With this routing you can run 8 wedges on stage (or in-ear mixes) and feed two and more EarMixers. The EarMixers get their signal through Ethernet. Here are two configurations without AVB Switch: Console -> NSB Stagebox -> EarMix -> EarMix... Console -> EarMix -> EarMix -> Rack Mixer or with AVB Switch: Console -> AVB Switch -> Rack Mixer, EarMix, EarMix... Hope this helps. |

Soon this thread will have 3000 views, therefore I am going to add something very special this time: links to concerts with at least one hour duration. It's not uncommon that concerts and festivals are recorded with an stereo audio feed from FOH. Sometimes there is a real mix happening during the recording, but very often the mix is left as it is.
Mostly there is only one camera involved, but there can also be post-production and HD video. All these recordings/videos have in common that you can follow what is happening on stage and that you are listening diretcly to the source(s) the musicians were listening to. The recording do NOT present dedicated in-ear mixes, but they give an idea how you can create in-ear mixes for musicians and singers (for YOUR band...!). You will find a lot of interesting music from unknown artists, but there will also be some big names... |
3000 views… I want to use this occasion to add something special here: Long videos from complete concerts . Listen and enjoy. Many videos are also fun to watch. There is a lot of good music around!

3500 views and Christmas, this must be celebrated. Here are some more of the longer videos:
ADRIAN BELEW 2019 04 17 Ardmore Music Hall 4K https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdJ5-tGw2t4 Intersting music - totally dry sound, good balanc e of ambience microphones. Muscle Tough - 4K - 06.22.17 - Ardmore Music Hall - Full Set https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXBthb8rGl8 Three instruments, ambience microphones, experimental music. Bela Fleck & The Flecktones - Montreal Jazz Festival (2018) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC1N7rkKkfg Special in all respects. Drums is played on a "drumitar". SARAH MCKENZIE. JAZZ SAN JAVIER 2018. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-e5UvA3MkM Deterrent example for a mono "mix". Sounds like a matrix mix with "everything" in it. No fun. Booker T Jones - 11-19-2019 - Ardmore Music Hall - Ardmore, PA - 4K, matrix audio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AOcl0jPXJk Also a matrix mix, but a much better one. Not full stereo, but fitting to the music. Larkin Poe on Audiotree Live (Full Session) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAqeBFN4axA Not a concert, but a live music video with a few people as audience. Always interesting to listen to, how the in-ear sound is mixed. The 1975 - Live at Reading Festival 2019 (Full Show) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrqBrTd6pb0 Quite a variety of styles and sounds. A lot of ambience. Imposing show, by the way. The 1975 - Full Show (Live @ Pohoda Festival 2019) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vm9kJg-I1BQ The same show with a different, more direct sound.

Joe Bonamassa Live at Carnegie Hall An Acoustic Evening 2017 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sz5vpT_BcMM Lots of acoustic instruments & percussion, very interesting band and singers, good microphones, good in-ear sound, fun to listen (and watch)... The reverb tries to imitate the big hall, but to my taste it's too much and too dark on his voice. Paul Carrack Live At Rockpalast 2007 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjHBIqUk-7c A concert recorded in a music club, but this really sound great. A dream of an in-ear sound. |
wahlerstudios wroteJust yesterday PreSonus has released a series of five videos about a VERY complex setup of EarMixers. This is nothing for beginners, but if you understand (also acoustically) what is explained, you get an idea how flexible the system is. I'm not being able to find the videos. Is there a new link? videos were removed? |
4,000 views… Never thought that this thread would find so much interest, but I also know, there is some good music to find here… I would like to point out that the videos do not necessarily represent in-ear mixes. The sound your hear mostly is the resource for all kind of mixes used in a particular concert. The recordings allow you to imagine "your" personal in-ear mix and get an idea how in-ear mixes can sound in your band or group. That's all. Enjoy the new (long) videos!

Billy Gibbons - Live at Daryl's House (Full & Mastered) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQmuibsXoDM From the same series and even better... Alan Parsons Project (Live 2014 on SWR TV full) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8cR2FKWSHM Something you do not hear every day.

Great topic, I only wish you could create videos because I indeed watch those videos
and thought hey this is not one size fit all, I wouldn't use my in earmix completely like this and the videos still have missing information for people who only have the rack mount version. Why not make videos dedicated to only the mixer version, and the rack version and the rack version is only uc surface (software) related, why not use a studio with live musicians and do a live run through, while I understand you're never going to make everybody happy, I feel they drop the ball by not making more in-depth material videos with this unit. Thank you very much for your well thoughts about the use of the material. My ideal setup 1-Kick 2-Snare 3-Tom high 4-Tom mid 5-Tom Low 6- Bass 7-Organ Left 8-Organ Right or Organ Drum bass (in case you don't have a bass player) 9-Piano Keys Left 10-Piano Keys Right 11-lead guitar (I believe you said this should be stereo but I need more education why) 12-Lead vocal 13-Backgroun vocal 1 14-Background vocal 2 15-Mpc click track 16-talk back mic |

Most important (for users) will be to use the link function for stereo input channels. Nobody wants to adjust two single channels for the "same" sound event. Then, use a subgroup (audio unrouted from Main L/R) as "bridge" for multiple functional sound events. You can also add reverb and input channels to this subgroup (see screenshot). Guitar normally is mono, but you have two keys in stereo, so you should also make your guitar player happy. Unfortunately this setup will not allow stereo for guitar. And remember that left is right and right is left... |

The rack mixers 32R and 24R have identical input and output features and capacities, there are no limits for AVB and USB routing. I would suggest to stay with AVB output sends 1-8 and 9-16 as "carriers" for the EarMixers, because everhing else will get too difficult, especially when you're new to AVB routing. All channels and buses of the rack mixer have an AVB input and an AVB output, which can be routed to any input or output. If you have kick and snare on channels 1 and 2, they will by default send their AVB output signal to AVB "O" 1 and 2. The next step would be to route the AVB output of (linked) Aux 15+16 or (linked) Subgroup A+B to AVB outputs 3 and 4. Then Bass to AVB "O" 5, Organ Bass to AVB "O" 6, and so on. The list ends with (linked) Subgroup C+D routed to AVB "O" 15 and 16. Stereo for guitar would need a free channel, which is not available in this approach. But there are two channels for bass, which will not be used simultaneoulsy, so you could move guitar to channels 5 and 6 and bass/organ bass to channel 11. |
