LIVE SOUND REFERENCE AUDIO MP3 PROFESSIONAL

even if your suggestion is the best way to achive the most professional sound or best sound quality, it comes to my mind that perhaps it's not as easy to use and to carry around. Kodebode, I really liked your answer, and probably this gear setup is the most professional way to play sequences. In a live situation, the PA simply amplifies the poor quality of MP3's. Could be just me, but in most cases, on a good quality PA (especially where compensating graphic eq's have been effectively used) with excellent frequency response, I can hear the degraded quality of MP3's. In my experience, I would strongly advise against using MP3's for live playback. I sometimes use a iPod shuffle taped to the back of a powered speaker to allow me to get some music on in 2 minutes (speaker+stand+power+iPod) and have music going until 2 minutes before I walk out at the end of the day. I don't really like playing from CD because I can't read the mood of the room ahead of time.

LIVE SOUND REFERENCE AUDIO MP3 SOFTWARE

It is always better to have a good operator DJing, but software like this allows me to keep focusing on setup etc tasks knowing that the show will keep going automatically. Playlists can be preconfigured and the software is smart enough to know where songs really get going - if there is 30 seconds of arty-farty quiet intro the crossfader will skip straight past that.ĬrossDJ is also controllable from the floor via iPhone/iPad. It lets me shift the tempo of songs if the mood calls for a slightly upbeat version of the song. The acoustics of the rooms I use means that the quality of compressed digital audio is never a factor.

LIVE SOUND REFERENCE AUDIO MP3 PORTABLE

Most good quality audio interfaces, already cost more than the most expensive portable music players (ipad, iphone), so the sound quality of these portable players is defnitely not going to be as high as a professional hardware interface. While the audio interfaces of many portable devices is quite acceptable, you asked for the 'best'.

An example would be Foobar2000 with an ASIO driver for Foobar. with a suitable ASIO audio interface hardware. RME has well known, but expensive products which should to the job adequately, or you could take a look at the new Focusrite Forte.įinally I recommend you use a software player which bypasses the in-built audio of your operating system, i.e use a bit perfect audio software interface such as ASIO. The next thing that determines the quality of your playback is the player itself, for highest quality, playback from a PC/MAC with a decent audio interface, especially one with a balanced output (XLR or TRS). What I therefore recommend is you use a high quality lossy or lossless format such as WAV.

that's what I mean when I say 'the best'.In my experience, I would strongly advise against using MP3's for live playback. I need to know what is the best music player to play sequences in live performances.

IPod?, iPad?, Tablet?, Laptop?, any specific mp3 player? What kind of Music Player do you use to play Sequences for Live Performances?
