Re: IEMs, Singers and Occlusion
I agree, moisture and cerumen are both factors.
I'm curious, Andrew, about your plan to record the IEM mixes and play them back for the performers. Were you able to do this?
And George, your theory about occlusion and how it relates to the cartilage is interesting. I've often wondered about the impact of where along the tube the occlusion is placed. For instance, in an ear plug, would it matter if the plug cartridge is at the opening of the ear or deeper in the canal? If an IEM monitor device could be placed a couple mm from the ear drum, would it improve the occlusion?
