I have a tale that's either a scary story or reinvindicative
about sound engineers. A local radio programme in my country had a special live
show which had a type of jools holland vibe to it cos of diff. musicians and
bands playing one after the other in a circle. One of them who was a friend of
mine, had trouble with his zoom 501 guitar pedal which was making a lot of
noise. I knew it either had to be the power adapter or the cable. But one of the
sound engineers kept saying it was the zoom pedal and it's distortion so he did
the classic thing to shout out to skip the box and to plug in with a clean
signal. But by fortune, a nother musician in the audience who happened to be a
friend of mine passed by and I ask him to help since with a musician and one
with stage experience could actually get through to engineers about the possible
cable trouble. Lucky enough that the assistant of the rebel engineer saw that it
was a cable problem when he saw that the cable connecting the guitar to the
pedal was the most laughable piece of lame ware
possible.
