I asked about network latency problems in GQ.
The Stones and other group performances pre-record their parts. Each person listens to a track and plays their part. Then it’s edited together.
I’d guess Mick was live and listening to the finished band track. It’s hard to know for sure.
That makes sense. Thanks.
Billie Eilish was too far from the mic . Maybe she was using a laptop mic . It was all prerecorded, not just the groups. I like Keith Urban using the 3 videos of himself.
There is also a Kirk Kameron Koncert.
That’s what it looked like to me. Wasn’t Charlie air-drumming on video?
My wife, not a big Stones fan, when Charlie’s screen came on said, “Oh my, does that poor old man think he’s playing the drums?!”
I just watched “You can’t always get what you want” and I thought the sync was rubbery as hell.
(And what’s with Charlie pretending to play drums? He was hitting an armchair and you’d hear a cymbal. ETA ninja’d)
It had ups and downs but for production quality, it sure made that “SNL from home” look like crap.
The frustrating reality is that since any sort of tour is out of the question for a while, video and sound engineers are gonna have to become experts on these types of programs.
I assumed electronic drum sticks.
