Episode 323 of "Thinking Out Loud with Friends" centered heavily on the evolution and practical execution of remote mixing in live audio. The panel shared historical and modern experiences mixing performances from non-traditional spots like projection booths, trailers, and cars using iPads, Dante systems, and wireless tech. They debated whether remote mixing will become standard across various venue types, highlighting key challenges like logistics, equipment protection, and the critical role audience feedback plays in tuning a mix.
The conversation also covered digital console preferences and the learning curve required when adapting to new workflows under time constraints. A major highlight was Kurt's demo of his restored DCX60, a rare analog console with digital control originally built for Saturday Night Live and Carnegie Hall. Finally, the group discussed touchscreens in live gear and previewed upcoming show guests, including Allen & Heath's Tom Durr and Mike Meding.
