I personally prefer to mix in post anyday. I find that every matrix I do really requires quite a different mix percentage depending on the venue, the music, etc. It's harder to nail that mix on the fly, but at home I can listen to various mix ratios on my headphones, on the stereo, etc., and dial it in just right. Or even better yet, I can use volume envelopes (aka automation) to ride the levels in post if I want -- turning up or down the audience inbetween songs, etc. That let's me have a higher SBD mix during the song, but still bring in a bunch of AUD inbetween, can sound great! Or the other way around, if the AUD is too loud inbetween tracks, you can turn it down for that, but then fade it back up louder during the songs. All a piece of cake in post, but much harder on the fly. But yeah, you have to sync the head, and stretch the drift like said above. The first few times it'll be a PITA, but after a while, it's a no brainer -- I can sync entire shows in 5 minutes or less now in Vegas no problem. The other thing to watch out for is that it is sometimes possible that your AUD might be out of phase with the SBD, if you mix on the fly and have no way of flipping the phase to check that, you'll be shit out of luck, while in post, you can just flip the phase back and forth on one of the sources, and you'll know pretty quick if you are in phase or not. Also, like said above by someone else, if the AUD mics are back far enough from the stage, you'll have a delay to deal with that can ruin the recording if you don't have any way to deal with it. In post, that's a no-brainer to fix too, and you can play with it until it's delayed just right. Anyway, just some food for thought...
