I always always always take many walks to hear what the audience is hearing, especially close to the stage and wherever the majority of the people are gathered.

Usually it will just be one thing or two like more or less sub or the top being hot around 2k or maybe the vocals being a little underpowered or something like that.

I believe it is one of the most important things you can do no matter where the mix position is.</blockquote>
