Here's the thing....people keep telling me that if running omnis that i should be taping as close to the stacks as possible. In my humble personal opinion, the recordings made from this sort of venue location have good sound, but are missing that live ambience that is the live sound in itself. I ALWAYS stand FOB whether I have gear or not, I think the sound is mixed most purely in this sort of location and also you get to enjoy the throw that the venue has...which sometimes is not a plus I do admit...but it's just such a different sound. If recording right in front of the stacks you may as well be running a SBD show, since it doesn't have that live warmth that you get FOB anyway. I know I can really get cocky and sound like an asshole so disregard this shit if you think i'm a retard. Thanks you evil fuckers.
