Hi all
I'm using the desk for the first time for a stage musical with 10 radio mics and an orchestra. I'm slightly confused in the setup of the monitors.
I have a set of monitors on the stage, and then four different feeds to the orchestra. Following various tutorials, I'm assuming I want to select '6 + 6 + 4' under the configuration, this then gives me six monitor feeds, six sub groups and four fx faders.
However, when an actor goes off stage, I will obviously pull down their fader, so their radio mic isn't heard through FOH. My question, is how do I setup the monitors correctly, so that the radio mic doesn't come through the monitors when they leave the stage and I pull down their fader (I'm assuming this means the setup of the monitor bus needs to be POST fader)?
However, with the orchestra, they'll want to keep their instruments through their monitors at the same level, but the radio mics will need to go on and off as described above.
Any advice much appreciated.
