Carlos Dickson Takes Feid’s Monitors to the Next Level with DMI-KLANG
Spatial accuracy, reduced ear fatigue, and cool cutting-edge technology make a winning combination for the reggaeton superstar’s 2024 tour
Feid, the Colombian musical phenomenon and to top-10 artist globally on Spotify with over 17.6 billion streams, is currently taking his hits and his band out on the road. Produced by Live Nation, the FERXXOCALIPSIS Tour 2024 kicked off in Sacramento on April 24 at the Golden 1 Center and has taken Feid across major US cities from coast to coast, offering fans a chance to experience his brand of high-energy reggaeton live. Up on stage, all six musicians’ and vocalists’ IEMs are plugged into KLANG immersive monitor mixing in the form of a DMI-KLANG card loaded into a Clair Global-supplied DiGiCo Quantum338 console for monitors, mirroring another Quantum338 at front of house. This marks the first time the KLANG setup has been used by Feid, any of his band members, or Carlos “Carlitos” Dickson, the veteran monitor engineer on the tour. But now that they’ve experienced KLANG, “This is what monitor world looks like from now on,” Dickson says.
