When you worked with Libera in Atlanta were you helping with the audio mixing then? I bet that concert went well.
Do you know if Libera has a sound crew that travels with them or do they rely on outside help at each venue?
I agree that the studio stuff sounds better than the live, probably because of the perfect acoustics of the sound studio and time to record again and again until they get the track sounding just right.
I do love Fiona Pear's violin playing though. I hope her and Ian Tilley have many happy years together
LOL, the concert did go very well, there were no sound issues that's for sure!!
To answer your question I'm really not sure....As it is with most "bands" it all depends, as there are many variables that are taken into account....such as....
1)Where are they touring? Many times the "bands" engineers can't make the trip. Therefore local crews are hired to set and engineer the show..
2) What is the budget?? Would it be cheaper to travel with your crew or hire local crew??
It all really comes down to logistics and cost....
I will tell you this......every show is different and unique and there are always new people working on every show...it takes all the "inside" guys as well as "outside" help to pull off a show.....I can't tell you specifically what Libera does on each show because I was only a part of one.
Anyways, hope I made sense.
And yeah....I can only imagine what Libera would sound like in a studio........Live..........in the studio.........haha....
and yes Fiona is BRILLIANT!!!!
