PreSonus Education Market Manager John Mlynczak and Doug Gay, Director of Programs for Baton Rouge Music Studios, brought in the incredibly talented youngsters from Baton Rouge Music Studios for this special look at PreSonus solutions for the classroom. Great stuff for talented kids, what else do you want? 🙂
Here’s PreSonus Associate Creative Director Cave Daughdrill circa 452 AD. Since these humble beginnings, Caveman has evolved to wield a vorpal telecaster and the biggest, most ridiculous pedalboards (plural) I have ever seen. Cave’s myriad contributions to PreSonus marketing endeavors include photography, web, and a whole lotta pixel-pushin’. He also has advanced nonweapon proficiencies in Wacom Tablets and good times. Nowadays, Cave’s musical home is in your heart. Or, more specifically, in The Lazerus Heart.

Doug Gould of WorshipMD talks about how to make the best use of your sound check time and the band’s rehearsal. Prioritize accordingly and don’t lose sight of the big picture—dial in the entire band one at a time, but don’t spend too much time on little details—do that during their rehearsal.

Doug Gould of WorshipMD discusses the use of subgroups on the StudioLive mixer, and how and why you would want to learn to use them. For example, routing all of your drum mics to a single fader makes the drum mix a LOT easier to control. Oh, and he’ll also show you how to assign your subgroups. It’s easy.

In between playing six other shows and engaging the PreSonus team in more than a few rounds of dominoes at Willie Nelson’s Ranch in Luck, TX during SXSW, John Fullbright managed to set up in the Jam in the Van van and knock out a couple of his hits for their cameras and recording gear. The results can be found below, and they’re really worth a look/listen.
We hadn’t had the opportunity to check in with Jam in the Van in a while, and while their video series has always been great, of late it has gotten really great—also evidenced below. Jam in the Van have been using StudioLive mixers for a while now, and recently upgraded to a StudioLive 24.4.2AI, and it’s a mainstay of their workflow. It’s literally always on the road, and looks and sounds to be holding up right fine.
Much of the same could be said of John. Be sure to get a listen to his new album, Songs, as the buzz around it is building rapidly—catching the attention of the Wall Street Journal, no less. It’s due to be released on Nimbit, and available nationwide in the U.S. on May 27, and in the U.K. on June 3.
