Question 8

How do I adjust the mixer levels during rehearsals?

Accepted Answer

The PA in the Underground Sounds rehearsal room has been set for a moderately loud rock band with a hard hitting drummer. To avoid feedback from the microphones, and to get the most from your vocalist, it is recommended that you adjust the bass and guitar amp levels to match your drummer before making adjustments to the PA. That being said, there are sometimes changes that need to be made. 
​
The mixer is a Soundcraft UI-12 "in-the-box" styled mixer, meaning that there are not any physical faders that you can touch and slide. Instead, you can connect any bluetooth enabled device (phone/tablet/laptop) that you provide to the Soundcraft mixers connected WiFi signal to make any sound adjustments. Once connected by WiFi, use your devices web browser to open the following website for a digital web mixer to make that actual adjustments.
