Just reiterating what others have said
- Make sure to add delay to the SBD feed, I always do an estimate of how far my mics are from the stage whenever I get a SBD feed and I almost always add some delay to make sure they are in sync, even it was less than the 30ft recommendation that was previously given
- Add reverb to the soundboard file to your taste, it can make a big difference in how the mix sounds with the Aud source
- Depending on how the vocals or other instruments are in the SBD mix, some can be overpowering, use some compression on the SBD file, start off with less and increase and see how it sounds, this can also make a big difference if vocals/instruments are more pronounced in the mix and need to be brought down
- Add some EQ ( i typically use a 30 band) to your taste as your mixing to either track, or with the final mix, whatever your preference is there

It really depends on the soundboard mix.

I have found that the new stemming tools (I use Demucs)

Is there an option to save files in 24 bit with Demucs?

Yes, use the --int24 in the command line.
Audio: Countryman B3 + AT853(hypers/cards/subcards) + SBD feeds
Wireless Receivers: Lots of those
Antennas: Lots of those
Cables: Lots of those
Recorders: TE TX-6, Zoom L20R, Zoom F8, (3) Tascam 680, (3) Tascam 2D, Zoom H6, and a graveyard of irivers/nomads/minidiscs.

Thanks.  Looks like it saves as 24/44.1, rather than 24/48 (the source).  Still better than 16/44.1 I guess.  I did see somewhere where the devleoper said he was "unable to find" a 24/48 source to work with.  WTF????

Yes, use the --int24 in the command line.

Correct--it was only built around 44.1khz. I think they just stuck with the library of CD quality mixes and didn't scale it up.
