[QUOTE="Brian jojade, post: 146239, member: 211"] Re: Do guitar players really need guitar in their own stage wedge? 25 feet out of 100 feet is 1/4 of the room. For large arenas, having a large cabinet creating hot spots on the stage is not affecting the audience significantly. When you get into a smaller room, the musicians need to be far more aware of what their stage volume does to the sound of the room for the audience. The job of the sound provider is to make the sound as good as possible for the entire crowd. Yes, it does mean making sacrifices to come up with the best possible average. In my opinion, it's worth changing the sound a small amount for the back of the room to significantly improve the sound in the front of the room. Saying that a performer on stage knows what the sound is like out in the room better than someone out in the room is a pretty strong statement. If you don't respect that your sound tech is up to that task, then you won't have a very good working relationship at all. [/QUOTE]
