Logistics
List of Equipment for Performance
One week prior to scheduled performance date performers must provide a list of your equipment so that the sound engineer can make an assessment of what is needed to deliver the best sound from your performance.
Performance
Green Kill livestreams typically run for one hour. A little under or over is fine.
Performers must arrive at least an hour before show time and be able to set up for sound and lighting checks within 30 minutes. If performers arrive late Green Kill reserves the right to cancel the event.
Perfermances are one hour. Green Kill is fully prepared for the demands of live streaming. High tech equipment delivers HD stereo to the YouTube Green Kill Sessions page. Green Kill uses a full PA and stage lighting, as well as alternative backdrop curtains for different performance environments. The stage is 16 x 7 feet. Green Kill offers green screen and touch designer performance enhancement solutions. Performers should write to 229greenkill@greenkill.com or call 347-689-2323 to review these and other opportunities.
Green Kill has a Roland FP 90 X piano.
The Roland FP-90 was primarily designed for someone looking for a stellar piano experience in an all-in-one digital-piano package. The modeled pianos punch way above this instrument’s price class — their realism is absolute, and you’ll never hear any “note stealing” — new notes cutting off previously sustained ones — due to limited polyphony, even with the most dense, two-handed, damper-down playing you can muster. Plus, where purely sampled pianos often boast recordings of this or that famous marque, the ability to adjust the model via Piano Designer means that the FP-90 can sound like any piano in your mind’s ear.
Green Kill has a Perl Export Drum Set.
Upgraded shells, hardware, and more make this Pearl Export EXX 5-piece drum set an upgraded version of one of the most popular and affordable drum kits around. Inspired by Pearl's Reference Series, this Export EXX kit's Superior Shell Technology (SST) uses a combination of strategically arranged plies of premium wood and proprietary construction techniques to offer you a durable shell that maximizes frequency response. The Opti-Loc mounting system keeps your toms wobble free while reinforcing the resonance of the kit. The included 830-series hardware adds big bang for the buck with the Pearl Export EXX drum kit. All you need to do is add the cymbals!
Production
Green Kill makes all final production decisions.
