In Episode 209, Jess Jacobs joins the show to discuss her work as a monitor engineer, backline, and playback tech for artists such as Missy Elliot, Sylvan Esso, Ella Mai, and more. She delves into what it means to be a playback tech and how she has utilized the capabilities of technology such as Ableton Live, and she also focuses on the importance of self-education and how that impacted her journey transitioning from musician to tech as she blends self-taught knowledge with taking formal classes to gain a deeper understanding of her work.
