Rational

For my project I will plan my weeks ahead hourly and date wise. I will be planning what I will be doing with my research and evaluating as I go. I will be researching artists live performance and gear to get an idea of what sort of gear to use for my performance based of off my research. I will then perform what every I have created with Ableton and use whatever gear I use to perform it. I will be taking part in the performance by being part of a role like a audio technician, or a Back line technician.

Pre-Live Performance

For my performance I had performed what I had practiced what I had created from my ideas and feedback. This performance I thought went well as it all went to plan apart from the fact that everything wasn't balanced properly so quiet parts of the vocals were loud and made the song sound off because the vocals were meant to be quiet. This is an easy fix as all I need to do is take the track and balance everything, and then save the track with the corrections.

Depending on the on what type of event they a needed in they can do a plethora of tasks to assist the performers, i.e sort out percussion or restring stringed instruments. Usually Backline Technicians are specialised in specific instruments for performances. So you could have a range of people on stand by for if an incident occurs with something like a synth stops working, or a guitar string breaks. As an example you would have a backline technician specialised in drums for that performance, so they would build the drum kit for the drum player, and keep strong communication with the drummer as if something happens to the drums, the drummer needs to tell the backline technician to he can fix it straight away. This can occur during a performance to the backline technician needs to be always ready to fix anything that goes wrong during the per...

Performance Three

For this I've used the same introduction however changed a lot with the chorus. I've made a more "Full" sounding chorus by making more percussion at the beginning of the chorus. Ive also implemented my idea of layering the vocals and increasing the pitch by +12. I still have introduce a middle verse which took a while to match as the tempo and timing was completely off, because I reloaded it in to Ableton again and had to match it up again with the tempo. After this I managed to have it match perfectly and synced some shakers and tambourines to it. I plan to just have this go straight back into the chorus. Feedback: Seb: I like how you have structured your song as it has clear progression, I also like layered vocals as the high octave sound like an eco of the lower octave, to improve I would make the kick drum more punchy. Lizzie: I like the vocals and how you have transposed the vocals. I also like the harmonising on the vocals where you have mixed high and...
