Note | - The show was basically all acoustic. Add to that - the dynamics in Ani's music fluctuate pretty dramatically
(very soft singing to loud strumming and singing). As a result, the crowd (cheering, clapping, etc) was far louder than the music coming from the PA most of the time. So to compensate and smooth things out, I lightly edited the show by reducing the volume of the crowd between songs (particularly the cheering immediately after a song was done), usually by 50%. It's not by any means perfect, and some awkward volume fluctuations can be heard a few times. But the volume discrepency between music and crowd was just too much not to do this. I did not, however, edit anything during a song. So the music is left untouched. - A mid-sized venue like The Pageant like this is sort of awkward to hold an all-acoustic show. The volume is just not loud enough and its hard to get 2000 people to shut up and listen for any length of time. So there is inevitably more crowd in the recording than is ideal. |
