🎚️ Gain staging in live sound? Watch the lights!
✅ Green = Clean
🟧 Amber = Warm & punchy
🔴 Red = You’re clipping, bro.
If your channel strip looks like a Christmas tree, it’s time to recalibrate.

🎚️**SAVE YOUR SESSION!**🎚️
Live sound is fast-paced — one wrong button or power blip and boom, hours of tweaking gone. Don’t be the engineer telling war stories that end with "I forgot to save."
Save early. Save often.
Name your sessions clearly. Backup religiously.
Your future self (and the next engineer) will thank you.

Try a de-esser before your reverb. Not just on vocals. It lets you have a bright reverb without the annoying freqs.
