live
Front Of House
Sound for the people in the house, or outside the house.
Monitors
Sound for the people on stage.
System Design
Aligning components, watching fancy curves on a screen ans setting the settings until there is some nice sound.
I work with the industry-standard Smaart v8 software (Certified Operator). I use german-made matched microphones by iSEMcon (EMX7150), and their calibrator gives me the confidence to evaluate actual real-world dB values (dBA, dBC, LAeq1, LAeq10).
I will do any of the above to a level as satisfying as the gear provided will allow me to, probably even more.
I own a small fine selected set of tools necessary for the job, and I know where and how to get the big ones, if necessary.
I prefer to work with the usual suspects in professional audio:
yamaha, allen&heath, soundcraft, midas, digico
meyer sound, d&b audio, l'acoustics, alcons, nexo
akg, sennheiser, shure, neumann, schoeps, rode
not live
in a time and age where no1 hits are made on smartphones, i learn how to play the harp.
Recording
Stage, studio, rehearsal room or batcave (nice reverb!), been there and done that. Efficient mobile setup (A&H SQ6 with Dante) with industry-standard microphones (Lewitt, AKG, Sennheiser, Shure,..), wired in-ear monitoring.
Editing
Verse 3 was better in the second take? Drums were out the night before? Give me a call, we can talk about it. I can do quite good audio restoration too, just don't tell the g-man.
Mixing
Mojito, White Russian or Lexicon, you name it, i fix it. Or mix it. I can also master your tracks for youtube, spotify and any other bar you like to visit.
About
Jakub Velikovský
Born in Czechoslovakia, moved to Austria as a child.
As was family tradition, I've been involved into musical education from early on.
I graduated on Sir Karl Popper Realgymnasium (HighSchool) in 2004, studied musicology for several semesters on the University of Vienna, and started working as an assistant in the field.
Looking for a more practical approach, I started out as a freelancer in live audio, meanwhile finishing the Audio Engineering Diploma on the SAE Vienna in 2013.
I've been involved in the audioparty ever since, but firmly believing that the journey to perfection never ends, I do visit workshops from professionals and certain manufacturers.
