[Perform-talk] Talent Show?

[Sarah Alawami]

Nice! escept you would need some audience mics  as well. I'm one to captur both a mic on the right an dleft of the audience and bring it up in to the mix slightly. also mute the stage mic after every peformance but keep denise's mic on of corse lol. but the reason I say that is to prevent handling noise and then bring the mic up then they are ready to speek.

Just my thoughts from experience.
