I was at a concert tonight, and I was wondering, "what is the best spot to stand in order to get the best sound?" I tried a number of spots; right up near the stage (too loud!), in the back,(sounded pretty good), and next to the audio mixer (also sounded pretty good). I figured if I stand close to the audio mixer, I'm hearing what he's hearing, which should be best? Correct? Or is he mixing so that it sounds good to the crowd and not himself?

I recently got a new computer that was actually capable of this thing called "YouTube." Some of the musical video clips up there, sound quality good or no, are absolutely amazing. The amount of material you can learn by watching is incredible. Most of it is probably a copyright violation, but...

Stephen-- I seem to recall ranting to you about how if you like fusion, you should listen to the Mahavishnu Orchestra. Dig-- high quality sound and video, live on the BBC, 1972: (Why can't I find this on DVD anywhere? I'd buy this. I'd buy multiple copies of this.)

I came across this in the Apogee forum. It is entertaining, at the least...............and educational!
