    I've never ever had any problem with the sound system, never met anyone who has either... Its never going to be studio quality as its a fookin club rig.... but never met anyone who's complained before.

    I thought it was louder than normal on friday and sounded spot on. Always thought the system was spot on, better than alot of places.

    Sometimes it can be REALY FARTY & FUZZY.

    I think its to do with the settings as Picotto changed the setting straight away when he got on the decks & then it sounded fine.

    Its not a MAJOR problem but it has happened around 3 times in the last few months and one night (I forgot which) it really spoilt the fun.

    It may be as simple as a DJ having the output of the mixer too high. Some mixers have internal active limiters (attenuators) that drop the gain if the DJ puts too much signal through.

    The Vestax mixer in Foundation does not. DJs usually do prefer that but it requires them to be responsible about the settings.

    It can also be as simple as an old styli on the deck but seeing as I am not at promise each week I can't comment on specific occasions.

    I can say that the sound system in foundation is one of the best I have heard in the country (I was a light/sound engineer until about 6 months ago) due not only to the correct specification of the kit but also the acoustics of the room and the set-up by CVA.

    Any more problems go tell the light/sound guy who is usually in his booth at the back of the room.

    Anyone been to Tall Trees, the system there is shit. If your under any of the balconies and not on the dance floorthere are no speakers so the sound u hear is just echoed off the walls and alot of the time it sounds like the mix is shit and theres loads of double beats. But if u walk towards the dancefloor it starts to sound better.
    That was the Major downer i had about the Judgement Sunday there, that and crashing my car on the way back aswell.

    Yeah i'm not too keen on it as clubbing club, but there £15 quid in and all drinks are free offer got hammered a few times.

    Never been to Retro except when i went to the culture birthday the other week and went to the back room and saw a man at the front with a cd player and microphone playing loads of old disco tunes, confused me to fuck as i thought i was completely lost and in another club (quite fooked at the time), but my mate rescued me and took me back to the main room.

    I can remember the first time I heard paul taylor, I stumbled in not knowing what to expect and was greeted with pumping aceeeed house.... I thought I'd died and gone back to 1992 :D

    I went a few more times, then I went to see him in ibiza, then I just stopped :D

    Smart E lived happily ever after the end.

    Yeah I was at the culture birthday too it was actually quite a good night. I agree that there are a few too many beer boys @ Tall Trees but there are a few cybers who go there regularly I spent most of that night with a group of people who go to crasher all the time.

    LOL I did that too was sitting up stairs in the main bar watching people get thrown out I thought we must have left the tall trees until some guy took me back to the dancefloor. :)

    But on the point of the topic yes the sound system @ tall trees is poor Promise has one of the best sound systems I've ever heard better than sugarshack even (keeping in mind I haven't been to the shack since its been done out).

    I'm going to stop typing now.....possibly even do some work! ;)
