Acosta was okay the night I opened...but the complaint I had with his set was that he had the mixer volume way to loud to where it was solid red. Maybe its common sense to me because I know alot about sound engineering but...WHY DO HEADLINERS DO THIS??? The Red lights are to warn you that you are getting to close to the maximum level. The key is to get it where the volume is just bubbling in the reds on the channel and master volumes...and then if it still aint loud enough get the sound guy to turn up the amps (to their maximum safe level)

For those who dont understand...when a solid red signal is sent to the amps, there will no no dynamic range at all in the music, just like if you record a set and set the compressor/limiter too heavy on it. In other words the music will sound very loud but completely flat. Other than that his mixing was decent but just playin it too loud. Wouldnt of been surprised if a few of the speakers blew during his set.



Yea he recently came to Dallas this past weekend....The man is a tool. Just like you said, all reds on the mixer, he blew both his monitors and bitched about it....understandable, but knowing that since I personally played on the main stage with him, he could have learned to mix with his headphones....he said he couldnt,....WTF!!! Not to bad of a DJ, PERSONALITY, packed his and walked off the stage before the other dj was ready to go.....

Gielan's off the promoters website www.sadanceparty.com. I think he's a no-go. I updated the events' thread.

Hmmm I dunno how well this party is going to do because of the Spurs game tonight. Maybe that is why they pulled a couple of the headliners because they were afraid that the night might not do well.

So how was it? Did anyone go ?
