Ryan O John returns on episode 216 to talk with the hosts about his experiment comparing "in the box" mixing versus using analog outboard gear, and which one is "better" or which one is more exciting to listen to. They discuss how it's important to know the functions within a signal chain versus what specific gear you use in the chain and more. Ryan also gives a recap of the incredibly difficult but rewarding Danny Elfman show he recently did for a second year in a row. They first talked about this in Episode 181.Checkout Ryan O John's Live Sound Bootcamp Podcast This episode is sponsored by Rational Acoustics, Allen & Heath, and RCFJoin our Discord Server and our Facebook Group, and Follow us on InstagramPlease check out and support The Roadie Clinic, Their mission is simple.
