Thread Name: To monitor or not to monitor
Subject: RE: To monitor or not to monitor
I have tried all the possible options. I am also deaf in one ear. The best by far has been the in-ear monitors because I can control the volume of the sound I hear.
Sound Men at jobs have always said" I can give you enough feed so you will be able to hear this wedge on the floor." They can't and never have. When we do our own sound we have either the ear monitors or Hot Spot on stands in front of us with the Front End sound so we can hear what the audience hears.
I sme venues you'll find the speakers slightly back option will be a feed back machine. In others it will be perfect.
My advice, use real stage monitors.

And search the data base we have done this thread before a few times I think.
