[QUOTE="Douglas R. Allen, post: 88899, member: 71"] Re: Aux feed subs? Of course how many open vocal and other microphones on stage there is and how loud the bass on stage is has to be considered as well. Subs close to the stage not setup well. Loud bass rig on a small stage. Loud drum monitor or just loud monitors with a lot of bass content , keys , kick , bass guitar, etc. All that bass bleeding into all those microphones makes the bass additive in the overall mix. The best thing to try is record just your subwoofer sends post crossover. Do one show the "normal" way with just the boards low cut filters. The next night record the subwoofer sends post crossover with an Aux Fed Subs setup. See if you can hear a difference. Everything you hear in the Low Cut mix that the Aux Fed subwoofer mix doesn't have is stuff that could be adding mud to the mix. Also the less unwanted sounds the subs have to reproduce leaves more power available to be used on the sounds that need to be reproduced. Douglas R. Allen [/QUOTE]
