Experience in Audio and Visual

Welcome everyone to my blog Audio & Visual World!!

Blog Introduction:
I share my experience in lighting and PA system that I have used before. Furthermore, I will review on the advantages and disadvantages of it. Beside that, I will be sharing on the headphone, audio jack, and other necessary items related to audio and visual.
Stay tune for more information and more posts.

Author Introduction:
I have been handling audio and visual for more than 10 years, I started at the age of 16 years old.
It is not easy to start mixing on the mixer. To be a sound man, a person needs to be able to handle stress and alert whenever there is feedback (humming).

Sometimes a sound man needs to handle special request from the musicians and audience. For example, a musician tells me that she cannot hear herself from floor monitor which she is standing far away from floor monitor. In this situation, should I tuned louder for her or I just asked her to stand nearer to monitor. This is the example of dilemma situation, the solution is to ask her stand nearer to the monitor. If I tuned the volume loud enough that she can hear herself, it will cause humming and too loud to other musician and singers.

For your information, I started mixing in a church setting, First Baptist Church in Malaysia. This church has instrument from drum to guitar. However, the preferable for the church's setting is soft bass and clarity in volume. Figure below shows the sound system used during the old time before 2007.
