[QUOTE="Christian Tepfer, post: 55787, member: 108"] Re: Mixing IEM Hi Kim, a lot of good points have been made, just a few more from me: 1. multipath audio / combfiltering. Big issue for singers, audio arrives instantly through the bone and a bit later through the earphones when using a digital desk or any other part of equipment that introduces latency. No chance to hear this unless singing into the microphone. Workarounds are singers who turn up their packs to 11 (obviously bad in the long term), just getting along with it (what most singers do) or using an analog desk at least for the vocals (hard to do but worth it). No issue for perfomers not singing. 2. wireless dynamics / frequency response: Biggest issue for drummers and keyboard players, it seems to me. I go wired whenever I can for these positions with great results. 3. ambience: I tend to use more and more ambience microphones on the correct positions, so a stereo pair each on the drum and key risers, 2 to 4 on the stage front. Everybody gets ambience that seems natural because the directions are correct. Obviously it's different for moving performers like singers. Depending on the performer, heavy ambience riding can be useful. So a lot of ambience between the songs, much less during the songs. I try to have a DCA fader available for that cause everytime.
