Hi Steve,
When performing, I count entirely on a tactile sense of the instrument; yes,
aural feedback is often present in terms of knowing that I am playing what I
think I am playing, but when there is too much going on sonically, or
monitors aren't positioned well etc, the tacticle relationship is what I go
on, as well as trusting that if I take care of playing the right notes at
the right times, things will come out ok in the mix.
- hope this helps,
Bill

Subject: [ddots-l] Ot loud stage
Hi all,
At the end of last night Show, I was asked to join the band (who was topping
the bill) The house mix was controlled by a sound engineer, however, the
Band's stage mix was simply their independent Guitar and bass amp levels.
My two questions are,
1: has anyone else been on a loud stage environment where it sounds like the
keyboard is in a different key to the other instruments until the levels
drop during the music, at that point you then hear the key for what it is?
2: When the stage level is so loud you can't hear the keyboards, is there
any technique that totally visually impaired musicians use to A: know your
hitting the right notes and B: keep metronomic?
I struggled last night with these particular issues, I always have a slight
Doppler effect when music is loud, I especially don't always hear the bass
notes as clear defined pitcht notes.
