Jam Band Stalwarts Phish Switch To DiGiCo SD7 Console During National Tour
During the first leg of the tour, FOH engineer, Garry Brown made the decision to switch mid-stream to a DiGiCo SD7.
After a five-year hiatus, the long-running quartet Phish reformed earlier this year, culminating in a new release (“Joy”) and subsequent 27-date national tour.
During the first leg of the tour, FOH engineer, Garry Brown made the decision to switch mid-stream to a DiGiCo SD7. After an exhaustive A/B comparison of his current console and the DiGiCo SD7, he decided to move to the SD7.
Aside from a brief outing with the band Third Day in 2004 on a DiGiCo D5, this was Brown’s first extensive hands-on experience with a DiGiCo console.
The national tour included headline spots at the Bonnaroo Music Festival, a four-night run at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver and a prime spot at “Festival 8” where the band revived two of its most storied traditions: blending a weekend-long campout with its once-regular Halloween gig.

Mix Phish on an actual analog console Gary, and then just plaug the lef right mix into a two track recorder with no audience mixed in, and I bet you get a much better mix. The use of the digital console is killing this band, it's recordings, and your reputation.
The mix still is pretty bad. It was not the console dide, you have a bad Phish mix. The live releases are even a bigger disgrace. Pity, people used to think Phihs sounded good, now they are a joke.

see this page for a whole list of people who are crazy about the band and yet incredibly unhappy with the current mix.
What is so hard? I mean, they have had great sound for years. see any live phish release before you started mixing them.
You would think you could figure out how to recreate that... i mean anything would be better than the current mix. I consistently have checked out pretty much each livephish from this tour and have hated the mix on each one.
PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!
