Looking back at the comments, I think I made the wrong video.\n\nSo this week I read the pushback out loud — the people running everything from one machine, the keyboardist who's done ten years and multiple European tours from one Logic session and whose only two failures were a photographer stepping on a power cable, and the guy whose bassist and drummer felt latency he couldn't — and I say what I should have said the first time.\n\nIt comes down to two things. It isn't can you, it's should you. And what happens when that computer crashes — which isn't a matter of if.\n\nNext week: how we practically apply redundancy and division of labor when we don't have unlimited budget, aren't traveling, and aren't playing arenas with giant teams.\n\nThe video this episode is about: What's Wrong With Using Ableton to Run In-Ear Monitors?\n\nListener-exclusive: a 14-day free trial of a full paid Pliris account — fromstudiotostage.com/pliris/friend. It isn't linked or advertised anywhere on the site; it's for people who listen.\n\nChapters\n\n0:00 The video I got wrong\n0:53 Why I made it — and why it was off-subject\n1:44 The eight reasons, and what they missed\n3:15 \"I run IEMs through my interface without problems\"\n4:02 Ten years, one Logic session, European festivals\n5:19 It's not can you — it's should you\n6:40 The line I should have opened with\n7:35 What a stepped-on power cable actually costs you\n10:08 When your drummer feels latency and you don't\n11:05 What it really takes, part one: 32 inputs\n14:20 Ten outputs — and the problem front-of-house can't fix\n16:35 The split snake\n18:22 Scaling it to a full band\n20:10 Why would you manage all of this?\n21:32 Where this video ended up: the bootcamps\n23:20 It comes down to two things\n23:46 A listener-only offer\n26:01 Jonny's comment — and what's next week","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/pR3SXpR_XgF5D-6O7RWWBh8sCDXeOsMMAYqo3-6Stm4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9iYzky/YjU3NjUwN2M0NzBi/OTVhOTMyYTgxMGM1/ZTk3Zi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
