Paddi Krause didn’t take much time: In 2010 he finished his training as an event technician, a little later he was already touring around the globe as a monitoring engineer to bring bands of all styles of music to the stage with the right sound. Now he lets the users of mothergrid share his knowledge - Anhandvondvon original live recordings of the cult band Toto.
Bands such as In Flames, Korn, Alter Bridge, Trivium and last but not least Toto like to rely on the Hamburger, he seems to have a knack for their ears. Not least because he brings along an important basic characteristic that is indispensable for the stressful life on the street: There is nothing that can upset him.
Monitoring sound for critical artists
In our second motherclass, he will provide unique insights into his way of working, starting with the individual instruments, each of which places very special demands on the man at the monitor desk: We accompany Paddi Krause through the original tracks of a live recording by Toto and are almost “live“ when he brings the signals of drums, bass, guitar, vocals and additional instruments into the right form for the artists on stage.
And there is hardly a more critical audience than the musicians themselves, whose performance depends not insignificantly on whether they feel comfortable with what they hear and above all: how they hear it.
Paddi Krause is not concerned with presenting the right settings for faders and knobs, he encourages the audience to think for themselves and to develop a very personal way of working and handwriting, because after all, every musician on stage is unique with an individual style, which has to be captured anew with fresh ideas and an unclouded view.
Finally, Paddi Krause also goes into the console of his choice: The AVID S6L has long since established itself as the industry standard and is on the road with the world’s most renowned bands. The first and most important advice is: “Know your console! What exactly does that mean? More about it in the video, have fun!
