[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 80187, member: 158"] Re: Mixing side of stage. How DO you deal with it? I spent a lot of my career mixing in the 'wrong' place. My trick was really more of a learned skill. I would do a few of the trips that Tim mentioned, but it was less about tweaking until it sounded good out front and more about taking mental snapshots of what the differences were between what the people were hearing and what I could hear. Once you get a mental picture of what it needs to sound like at your mix position in order for it to sound good out front, That becomes your target and you mix to that target rather than to make it 'sound good' where you're standing. A couple of trips out front throughout the night to double check your work, but mostly you can get the job done this way. [/QUOTE]
