Starting a freshy!
Starting a brand new show file with a band going on IEMs for the very first time.
Would anyone recommend starting with the 48 channel monitor demo show that is in the default filling? Make show mods off that as I go and save as from there...? |

Re: Starting a freshy!
Just a personal preference, but I prefer starting from scratch, it's good practice and it helps avoid surprises. I like to do "clear console" and go from there. Multi-select is your friend, makes config fast and easy.

To the OP, check the Avid default files and see if they suite your needs. I must admit I have never loaded the default show files myself... And don't forget you can create your own basic setup files on a standalone software as well.. even labeling the inputs can save you a bunch of valuable minutes |

Re: Starting a freshy!
To clarify, the approach I described assumes you are in a non-time sensitive situation, starting offline or in shop prep room. If I have to throw and go I always come prepared. Kristo's advice is extremely good if you are diving in at a festival or something, but if you are designing a tour system, you should be spending plenty of time prepping your file, in which case I prefer to start from zero, but there are many ways to skin a cat. If you have certain workflow items you always use, you could always design your own basic template, but my personal preference is always a fresh start, I just feel it helps me find new workflows and think twice before relying on the same techniques for every gig. Again, that's just me, you'll have to find what works best for you. Best of luck!

Re: Starting a freshy!
Hey Brent, I think you should make a couple of monitor templates for Avid to include!!!!
