			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi EnjoyRC, welcome. </p><p>Definitely lower your reverb to start with - then off - work it back up higher if it benefits. You might want to play a midi loop of your gig elements and walk to the mixing desk (and other places) to hear what the audience might hear, but esp. work on it with FOH. It&#039;s one thing to walk around knowing what you want, but the desk does most of that translation of ideas to the crowd in the mix.</p><p>I really recommend talking with your FOH and ask how you can pull the best sound in the space and work with them whenever possible. Involve them, they might love that - also perhaps, knowing your band members well, consider if it&#039;s for the best to also involve them in that kind of thing (egos and trust - don&#039;t overlook this, if the band wants legs).</p><p>Maybe don&#039;t begin by zooming in on reverb - you might hear back some things you didn&#039;t consider. Professional advice is probably the same in music as anywhere else and your FOH can really do wonders when a common goal is there.</p><p>Generally, live, if your keys are meant to be not too effects-heavy, it&#039;s likely to be better to have little or no reverb (leaving it to the room and the mixing talent on the desk) but of course if you do have a strongly custom trademark reverb-heavy or other specialized sound requirements, FOH might pull a fantastic (or improved for the room) sound with in-house effects.</p><p>Even if your trademark sound is aiming at some kind of totally natural ultra classy classic old-school piano gig or Bach, or some type of purist jazz or your version of vanilla, or a drop-dead gorgeous smokey old era flavour - there are probably multiple ways to help a room to sound more to those leanings. Some rooms will sound one way and require a bunch of alterations at the desk to make the same overall sound happen elsewhere. That all might be well beyond just your reverb - but just to point out that your own reverb <em>might</em> present another moving part which can make getting you a good sound a harder task through the desk (FOI may really know their desk/racks but your reverb could be an unhelpful extra puzzle piece to them at any venue change - maybe unless you&#039;re 100% working together forever and not just thrown together by venue/management etc on the night).</p><p>All that will be different for each FOH/venue/gig. Hoping you get to work with someone who is as keen as you to pull a great sound!</p><br /><p>If it&#039;s just down to you and your own reverb with no help from FOH? </p><p><em>2 or 3 of these quick things can really help any gig</em>:</p><p>a)<br />for each preset you use, save a version with your gig reverb, like &quot;songname12-gig&quot; or same name for presets but saved into a &quot;gig&quot; folder.</p><p>b)<br />slightly raise the &#039;tone&#039; of any reverb (mud is mostly &#039;dark&#039;, lower freq). Unless you&#039;re playing in a tile covered or heavily glassed venue, it may help a lot. If a really reflective venue, try dropping the tone 10% back on your regular brighter &#039;gig&#039; setting maybe - just because, some added trebles to any element can sound more shrill or make your lovely piano sound a little like it&#039;s in a tub.</p><p>c)<br />lower overall reverb - probably should be first on the list.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello all.. new Pianoteq user.&nbsp; First post.&nbsp; Long time keyboardist.<br />Current project is a Rock / Blues type gig.<br />As a keyboardist, not the front of house sound tech, should I use any reverb on my piano presets?<br />Does it muddy up things?</p>]]></description>
