Anybody seen one of these in the wild recently?
Did a community show with a tribute band the other day and was provided this older distinguished gentleman out front and his silly little brother for monitor world (LS9 was my first digital and has a soft spot in my heart even though the industry hates it). Had a solid crew with not a single squeak from stage and thousands of attendees left smiling so I think it was successful.
The band attempted Doobie Brothers and Styx covers and I polished as hard as the desk would allow me, but it's been over a decade since I've encountered an M7 and it was like riding a bike.
I guess it was a nice reminder that a positive attitude can make or break the overall achievement of a gig. There were a lot of hiccups throughout the day, the LD and I were working with a bunch of new people, I thought it sounded just ok even though every effort was made to crush it, and it was hot and humid as fuck; but i walked away laughing and having a good time. Still love my job.
