Within Effanel L7, John Harris (left) and Jay Vicari handled the stereo and surround sound music mixes on an AMS Neve Capricorn digital console. Harris and Vicari alternated mixing duties during rehearsals and the live performances.  “During rehearsals we recorded the [pre-fader] signals to [Digidesign] Pro Tools|HD,” Harris recalls, “and then used the tracks to refine our Capricorn EQ and automation [settings] during evening playback sessions.” “In that way,” Vicari continues, “we could develop automated stereo and surround mixes, which helped us [develop] the multiple balances we would need during the on-air broadcast.”
