Re: Every live sound engineer should spend a little time in a recording studio.Let me rephrase that. "Some things that you get used to in the studio, you dont have the option to use live" example would be that random engineer that loves spending 15 minutes you don't have of your 20 minute set change trying to get the 2nd rack Tom to sound perfect. Or the people who love thinking you have unlimited headroom when they're mixing live. I agree. Most mixing techniques can be applied live. And if you don't understand how a mix is constructed, then you probably shouldn't be mixing. When I say some things shouldn't be used live, I kinda worded that a little wrong for what I meant. This is all a controversial topic. Every engineer has a different "ideal"mix (though some, that isnt an excuse), and way to achieve it, every engineer is in a different environment with access to different equipment and different ideas and training on how to use it. Knowing your basics, and everything behind a mix, is never a bad thing though. An improvement to your knowledge can only benefit you.
