@ hueseph and @ xpaddy01 - Love your posts re: Kelly's rig . To clear a few things up about this video - the floor monitors ARE NOT used in the studio. This video was shot in the studio to show her new rig as it would be used LIVE. When tracking, these are turned off and she uses her studio monitors.

@hueseph Not questioning your expertise, good sir, merely making an observation regarding Ms. Richey's live rig, which this is, and the live rig Mr. Johnson uses. Ms. Richey has been kind enough to show us her live rig in her studio. I don't believe she uses this set up to record with. She has much nicer studio stuff for that! :)

@xpaddy01 I know how to mic an amp. I would never use stage monitors to record with. Too loud. You can't listen to a mix for a prolonged time when it's well above 80 dB spl. That's bound to promote ear fatigue.

@meowtant Lightpipe makes sense. I don't know why someone flagged your reply as spam. Still, floor monitors are loud. There's now way to make those quiet. They're intended for stage use. Quiet and stage don't go together.

@hueseph She may be using them similar to what Eric Johnson uses both live and in the studio. As you may know, EJ mikes his main amps, and those mics go through a small mixer with two EON monitors. From the mixer the signal goes out to the main PA board.

I'm just now sitting down to catch up with your posts! I love the rig! And, of course, after you demo'd how the recorded parts for 'Hey Joe' go (which sound brilliant, esp. the vocal harmonies), I've got that in my head and whistling my own solo! As you go through each part, I"m reminded of how both Allan Holdsworth and Eric Johnson have their rigs set up. Kudos to you and your tech!! Brilliant! :)
.....I'm actual using a 68' Fender Princeton Amp with a Hotplate as a dummy load so I get an actual tube amp sound to work with. I use Yamaha powered monitors in the studio -- nothing too fancy but very flat and very reliable!!! If anyone has any questions, just fire away --

I'm in my studio with two separate setups -- I have my studio set up to my right and that you're looking at in the video is my live solo rig. My reason for using monitors and not an amp is so I can run ALL sounds through my computer into Ableton Live for looping.
