Terry Crisp


MM 42 Personal Monitor Processor
Award-winning pedal steel guitarist Terry Crisp has been playing professionally for more than 30 years, recording with everyone from Dottie West to Travis Tritt.

Terry has played with some of the greatest names in country music, including Dottie West, Kenny Rogers, Ricky Skaggs, Reba McEntire, Ray Price, Joe Nichols, and Travis Tritt. The talented instrumentalist has won 4 CMA Awards, 8 Academy Awards (including Instrumental Group Of The Year), 1 Grammy Award (Instrumental Of The Year), and has been nominated twice for the CMA's coveted Musician Of The Year award.

With more than 15 years of experience using ear monitors on stage, Terry recently began using the Rane MM 42 Personal Monitor Processor. "I use Future Sonic ear monitors that have a lower-than-typical impedance. The MM 42 has made a huge difference in my live experience. For one thing, the extra power has helped incredibly, complementing the low impedance of the Future Sonics. But the best part of the MM 42 Is the sound quality improvement it gives me. It's so smooth, extremely transparent, and the EQ is just right."

Currently touring with Joe Nichols, Terry also uses a Rane C4 Quad Compressor / Limiter. Compressors #1 and #2 are linked together for his stage mix, and #3 and #4 are linked together for his steel guitar output. Crisp adds: "I can't say enough about Rane gear. My sound engineer and I took these units into the studio and compared them to (much!) more expensive gear such as the Que 8 System, Amek, dbx, Neve, Valley People, and others. On vocals, guitars, bass, drums and keys, Rane's audio response in most cases was smoother, quieter, and more transparent."

"Rane's MM 42 has made all the difference in my ear monitor sound. I also use the Rane C4 Quad Compressor in my rack, and I can't stress enough how professional these 2 units are! I’ve owned and operated my own recording studio for more than 20 years now, and I would personally recommend that every musician who gives a damn about their sound go immediately to their local equipment dealer and try these units out. Really!
