[QUOTE="Rob Spence, post: 16318, member: 80"] Re: Monitors from FOH I used to set up my desk like you did BJ since the reason was to avoid compressors on the monitors and have separate EQ for them too. Then, I realized for me, the only channels I cared about for the most part were the vocal channels. So, I then just split the vocals and if someone wanted guitars or what ever, I just put it in from the normal channel. This meant I didn't have to set up the gates and comps twice for the drums too. So, the next thing I did to speed up operation was to make a custom fader layer. On it I put the channels that I ride, along with the vocals and the monitor vocals. Now I can deal with most things during the show without changing layers. For things like the drums and some instruments I just go to the main layer and make the needed changes.
