0:06 I'm Colin pink front of house engineer
0:08 for H him alive uh and the world of
0:10 hanszimmer as well I've worked with Hans
0:14 since 2014 the kind of width of hans's
0:18 music is is so broad it's amazing to mix
0:19 which of course comes with a lot of
0:21 challenges because you're having to
0:24 cover small intimate chamber orchestras
0:28 to massive punk rock feel and so it's
0:31 always a challenge when you're not just
0:33 mixing but setting up the PA we were
0:35 looking at some of the content and
0:38 hans's keyboards all go down to 10 HZ
0:39 because he takes all the capacitors out
0:41 of them so we were kind of losing that
0:43 bottom octave which in most genres of
0:46 music even you know the EDM stuff you
0:49 don't necessarily need Johan the system
0:51 Tech on the show was doing a little
0:55 research and and came across the DTs 10
0:57 because although it's not your biggest
1:00 it's your lowest they chose the dts10
1:02 because it's one of the few subwoofers
1:04 that goes down really low that's what
1:06 they were looking for to augment the uh
1:08 main system for this kind of music it's
1:11 uh considerably more powerful than let's
1:13 say a vented box would be if you could
1:17 even tune one that that low which you
1:18 really can't we all got excited about it
1:21 you know it's big Subs everybody's
1:22 excited about big Subs but these are
1:25 special they're infr Subs so they take
1:26 care of that bottom octave that most PA
1:28 systems just can't handle today I was
1:30 calibrating the system to make make sure
1:33 it integrates properly with their PA
1:35 that they have their pa of choice we've
1:39 got 12 DTS 10s along the front which is
1:41 uh it actually looks beautiful cuz it
1:44 just disappears they're visually elegant
1:46 boxes and the way they coupled together
1:49 is great and it's just giving us that
1:51 extension that we need it's a specialty
1:53 thing this is this doesn't happen uh
1:55 with most life live performances so
1:58 hans's music is is very deep and
2:00 impactful it's been fun to realize how
2:02 much he loves bass himself which is
2:04 right in line with with Tom danley's
2:07 philosophy so more bass is better and if
2:08 you can't hear it you can feel it that's
2:11 even better I did hear uh the a couple
2:14 practice songs yesterday and uh what it
2:17 does is fill in the very bottom that
2:19 shakes the room yeah they're doing what
2:21 they're supposed to [Music]
2:41 I guess the great thing about them is
2:44 that they just disappear sonically and
2:47 in a a really good way and I'm I'm still
2:49 playing with it but what I'm loving is
2:51 they're doing their job but there's no
2:54 artifacts it's just clean and powerful
2:57 and elegant and so I'm I'm having lots
