I was thinking a little bit today about monitors.
One of the things that I've noticed in the venue I work in (a church) is that one of the challenges is the noise coming back of stage. Every things ends up a bit 'muddy' due to whats coming back off stage. We moved to using hotspots a while back, which has helped with monitor volume, although they don't sound great, and really clutter up the stage.
Anyway, I've never seen anyone really discuss the directionality of monitor wedges. Are any of them better at keeping sound going forwards rather than backwards (assuming the back wall has some absorption of course).
In the same sort of vein - I notice that Danley have a monitor wedge on their website. Has anyone heard it? It's claims significant front to back rejections.
Just some late night wondering
