Pepsi max stage sound

[GuitarManDan15]

For the 3rd year running I've not been able to enjoy watching bands in there! The bass is just too strong! I can feel the kickdrum piercing my ears, there is no need to have it that loud and when the bass player plays an open e it sounds horrid.

I tried to watch arcane roots there yesterday and I was really looking forward to it but had to leave after one song. Never had this problem in any other tent at any other festival.

Anybody else thought this?

I fucking loved it in there. Granted I only went for the Sunday, and only saw Dillinger in there, but the bass was f'in brilliant.

I've been sound engineering gigs for a fair number of years now and I'm always appalled by the sound in that tent! I feel like jumping up to the mixing desk and just taking the edge of everything! Ruined many a band in there for me over the years.

Ive been every year but 1 or 2 I think since it started, and can honestly say its never bothered me, I'm no audiophile mind, but its usually my favourite place to be at download.

The only act who's sound I thought was shit was Skindred. It was waaay too quiet. Also volbeat had no bass for the first 2 songs.

was fine for Royal Blood and Letlive. Never noticed an issue tbh.
