I've somewhat noticed this on my system but i was at a show the other night and it was really noticeable.The singers voice was ok but on the whole it just sounded terrible. It was like listening to two different things happening at once.The music was one and the singer was the other.There wasn't like a natural blend of the singers voice mixing with the music. Is this a problem with mixing,equipment,settings or what?What could a person do to at least somewhat merge the two together to get a more appealing sound? |

Barring some technical error like clipped inputs or computer/player EQ being set to something crazy, I guess you just didn't get a good mix. If you have trouble doing so from "behind the PA," e.g. you are on the stage and the speakers point away from you, I suggest you move out front like a sound guy. I can do it from either position, but I prefer to be out front with the bar guests so I can hear the same thing as them. I have a long TV cord and audio snake, and separate amp rack, so I can put my mix position almost anywhere I want. I own these things because I also do live sound, but I would still want to have them even if I only did karaoke. |

I use VU meters running in Reaper as a visual aid for knowing what my mix is. I run a seperate VU for mics and background music. I try to keep them almost even, with a bias on the singer. Take a look at this picture to get a better idea. The red arrows point to stuff. Mic is mic, BGM is back ground music. http://shup.com/Shup/253056/109111214313-My-Desktop.png |
