Sounds great man . Always nice to hear Splawns in action
 
Man, your band rocks hard. If this is original material, I dig it. I’d buy this.

Forgive my ignorance, but are you using your cab at all? Could you explain the signal a bit more?

That Splawn sounds absolutely killer. It’s the next amp purchase on my list.

Thank you. Yes, the song is original. We're currently on getting everything recorded. So hopefully by early 2021 we'll have something up on all the download sites. We currently have our song "Lost Letters" available for download on all the platforms.

I am using my cab, but the amp is attenuated, so it's low on stage volume. I'm passing through the Captor X to the cab, and attenuating -20dB. From the Captor X, I am sending an XLR cable to our IEM rig and then that passes through to the front of house. So what you are hearing from the mains is my Spawn through two IRs of the EVH cab. We set up the Captor X and the actual miced cab at my drummer's home studio and couldn't tell the difference between the two. IRs are that damn good. This allows me to have a consistent tone from venue to venue. No more worrying about the crappy mics that have been beat to death at a local bar. It has also made recording some much easier. The IEM system has also been a real eye opener. We spent weeks tweaking everyone's mix to get it just like we each want to hear it. I have noticed a big difference in how tight we play together since we started using them.
 
Very cool man. Really good band, tune, and your tone is killer. :rock:

Thanks for the info! It’s been a couple of years since I played out live much. One band I was in for a hot minute were considering the IEM route and I was skeptical. For some reason, IEMs seemed less rock n roll to me. The more I hear others who use it rave about it are making me reconsider my thinking. You guys definitely sound awesome and are super tight. I don’t see how your tone could get any better than that. It sounds absolutely killer.
 
Killer tone! Love the song you guys wrote. Sounds like a tight outfit.
 
Sounds great!

The speaker sim boxes are the way to go, I don’t know how many times I’ve looked at my amp and the mic has fallen over or pointing the wrong way.

What IEM setup do you use? Wireless? And how does it interface with the house PA?
 
Killer stuff brother man!! I’m hoping to catch y’all next month. :rock:

We're using the Behringer XR18 Air mixer to feel the IEM packs from four output busses.. We have inputs on the front of the rack that all of our gear runs through. We have a splitter that feeds out the back of he rack that allows our signal to pass through to the FOH. So that the FOH connects to the back of the rack and he can do whatever he wants without what we're doing effecting him at all. It has made a huge difference in how tight we play together- because you can actually hear everything. My drummer has a degree in audio engineering. So we are basically getting a full mixdown to our IEMs. From there we can adjust our individual bus mix if we want to tweak anything via phone app. There is a really good video from Rhett Shull on youtube that breaks down how we are running our setup. He does practically the same thing with his band.
 
Nice live sound and killer playing! Sounds like everyone was having fun there at the end. Thanks for sharing man, that's what it's all about!
 
Absolutely LOVED that! Clips like those make me miss my old QR.

Ha, that's awesome...after listening to you clip I started reading other posts that led me to the XR18. I run sound sometimes and that looks like a perfect solution, nice and compact. Currently I have an older Presonus StudioLive that works fine, but an XR18 could just hide onstage. Thanks for tip, I'll check out the video.
