[Official Message] Ayu to perform/take part in a-nation stadium fes. in August

[maikaru]

You guys her vocals aren't horrible at all. The mixing for the event is really, really bad. That's all. Like look at Sandaime, their performance of RYUSEI sounds horrible because of the mixing, not their actual voices. We all know they can sing. Ayu too. Of course if they brought her vocals up in volume and compressed them more, she would sound really really beautiful!

[Queen Bee]

^Sometimes I think some people just want to discredit the improvements Ayu has and continues to make of her vocals.

Good mixing would not fix tons of off-key notes.

Nope, but it would affect the singer as they cant hear themselves clearly

[jbrat2219]

I didn't really care for this year's show. Not as powerful as her previous ones. But maybe it's because she doesn't usually perform her dancy songs well (in my opinion) and Wake Me Up just didn't do it for me . I only saw the first day's show so maybe the others are better? Still love and worship her LOL.

[Gustavopc]

First I predicted A ONE's revival on Oricon, and now I checked this thread and... There was DEPARTURES on my tracklist. Going through some sixth sense experiences tjese days hell yeah

[Diego-kun]

I also thought Ayu had improved after watching AT 2015 and NHK SONGS but after a-nation I'm not so sure... Maybe she will do it better this Saturday at the Tokyo venue. I hope that she perfoms more songs since she's the headliner that day

We don't know that. This mixing we heard is for viewers, mixing for Ayu is very likely to be different.

She was clearly having issues the first day--she kept trying to readjust her earpieces, whereas she barely touched them on the second day.

And she's only got one functioning ear as it is, so...

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Gonna finally watch a-nation performances soon. Wonder if I should just skip the first day...especially after hearing how horrible spexial was on July 1st...lol

Sadly its never 100% support from ayu fans crude and bias remarks about her from people who know nothing of how things work. They just expect 100% perfection when ayu herself is human She has her good days, she has her bad days. Just when she has her bad days. Just ignore them. But basically its just bitching behind her back and if she knew them personally, she would have nothing to do with them at all. Love to see people who complain do a better show then ayu

It is the same. If you have watched others performers performing, you can see the shock when their mic fails and almost panic. Check out Da-ice performance

Spexial didn't sing on July 1st, they just got to the stage to be introduced after the dancers and kept around for some minutes.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^I know, I meant their awkward stage presence. That's what I keep hearing anyway...

[Andrenekoi]

^I didn't find it to be as bad as people made it to be... The guys obviously seemed a little lost and they obviously don't have much experience on going on a stage to do something that isn't reharshed, but it was far from a disaster.

And the Sayonara performance is pretty nice IMO.

I doubt it's the same. For example I heard mixing for Mylene Farmer's earpiece, and it was very different from what listeners of the concert were hearing, it didn't even include all the instruments/band members and had much louder voice volume. I guess they make it special according to singer's needs and desires. Ayu might had bad mixing too, but I don't think it was the same one we heard.

[Yukitora]

^Yes it's standard for musicians to have their individual feedback highlight their own instrument. The sound for the audience is clearly different to the sound sent to the musicians.

Fortunately it is not 100% support when something is not good...

I haven't seen a lot of bitching here (to be honest I haven't seen any), crude or biased remarks; mostly negative but justified comments. If you want to read positive comments there are plenty on other threads when things are fine (NHK show).
So you can't express yourself when you feel something is wrong ?

Of course she is human. Maybe she was having a bad day vocally wise. But you can't prevent people for pointing things out.

Overreacting ?

[Deep snow]

Sorry, I don't know whether this has been addressed before: Will her performance be broadcast on TV? Because I'm very excited to hear the pitch-corrected version of ayu's DEPARTURES performance. It would be PERFECT

[~angel*ayumi~]

Oo The file we have IS a TV broadcast. As we can´t expect a DVD this is all we will have. only MAYBE we will get an edited Re-Broadcast.
