Michael Runion Video

Although there are plenty of videos on YouTube of The Young Veins playing at last week’s Echo show, only one video of Michael Runion has been posted so far, and the sound quality is bad.

Did anyone record any more, particularly of the new JJAMZ song, which was the last song of his set?

UPDATE: Yes, someone did record the first minute and thirty seconds of the song!! The sound quality isn’t the best, but it is definitely better than nothing!

YouTube Sound Quality

When it comes to many YouTube live concert videos, the sound quality is often pretty bad. The bass drowns out the rest of the instruments, and the sound is often too loud for the video camera to pick up without distortion.

Sometimes, though, you can use this distortion to your, the viewer’s, advantage: if the distortion actually emphasizes one instrument, like the guitar, over the others, you can better hear background guitar parts that you’ve never heard before, even on the album.

Here’s a great example of this: the bass drowns out the vocals in the live concert video of “I See Red” by  Uh Huh Her below. But, you can consequently hear the guitar part above all other instruments.
