Mark Frink 01/24/13 10:16 AM,Like wedge-based monitoring, each in-ear mix is very personal, but unlike with wedges, the only way to hear something is if it’s sent to that mix. Stereo generally works better than mono.

This is easily demonstrated by listening to a track in mono and then… View this story

I design loudspeakers for a company, but really enjoy taking other manufacturer’s boxes apart to examine the inner construction and see how they actually put glue to wood to make the design work. Even though some wedges are surprisingly simple in design and work just fine, other… View this story
