Re: Engineering Live Loopers (percussion bleeding)

["Ian Popperwell" <popperwell@iname.com>]

Interesting idea, I remember a gig a few years ago (not a looping gig) 
where 
the drummer was on his riser which was surrounded by what looked like 
perspex screens thus providing lots of isolation.

I use the se Electronics Reflexion Filter in my studio and I know there's 
a 
new smaller one specifically for instruments, I wonder what these are like 
in live situations for reducing spill from the other stage noise. Also 
some 
of the portable acoustic screens, that are designed for creating 
separation/acoustic treatment within home/project studio environments (I'd 
worry about the road-worthiness of some) but... Anyone tried?
Ian.
