I've been contacted to do a remote broadcast with "Tortoise" from Chicago when they're in Minneapolis. The position I normally occupy for broadcast mix will be taken up by the monitor desk, so I've been relegated to the lighting booth behind the FOH console. There is no way to set up a full desk in there, so I'm looking for "Plan B". Dropping back a few yards and punting, how about using the flown house pair (coincident AT 4000 series pencil condensers) plus a house mix feed.....delayed to the flown pair. If I get permission I could add some PCC apron mics that I'd prefer to the house pair, but it's a "bowl" with tiered seating descending to a "floor level" stage.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
