Subject: RE: I don't sound like me in the monitor...
Hi Victoria,

I spoke with a sound tech here and he suggested two things. If you can skip the monitor entrely and go with house sound in the open. He thinks the problem may be your hearing aids are amplifying alreadly amplified sound. (I'm a little shakey on that theory myself so I am unsure of it's value as a solution. You are not amplifying the sound again so there is no closed loop, make sense?). Then he suggested going with in-ear monitors in place of you hearing aids.

He also suggested that your feedbsack may be an impedence problem.

Feed back is a viscious thing. The same settings will feed back in one room and not in another. I haven't had a feed back issue in ages. I almost have to eat my mic to be able to use it. As long as I am within an inch of it it is fine, step back as much as four and it drops off, step back a foot and forget it.
