Some time ago Nick DeLaCruz on YouTube did interview with Jim Ebdon, Linkin Park's FOH engineer. The interview is from June this year; I watched it a few days ago and I thought you might find it interesting.

 

From YouTube description:

 

In this exclusive interview, I sit down with legendary front-of-house engineer Jim Ebdon, known for his work with some of the biggest names in music, including Linkin Park. We dive deep into the art and pressure of mixing one of the most dynamic and emotionally charged live acts of the 2000s.

 

Jim shares his journey with the band, what it took to bring their powerful sound to life in stadiums and arenas around the world, and how he handled the balance between raw aggression and polished clarity. From technical setups to memorable tour moments, this conversation goes beyond gear, it's about the people, the passion, and the performance.

 

Whether you're an audio professional, a Linkin Park fan, or just curious about what it takes to run FOH for a global phenomenon, this episode offers a rare glimpse behind the board.
