The *only* thing I can come up with is that the was a phase problem with the
hookup for *ONE SIDE* of the Neumark, and the previous group got their CD in
the "good" side.
That sounds like what happened to me.
So, ideas? I can't think of a single way to compensate for every single
sound problem that may crop up once a CD leaves my studio. Nothing I could
have done to prevent this happening then or again, other than running sound
myself, which I often do but am not always the one contracted, is there?
I can't think of any way you could have been alerted to this, but
if you want to be paranoid, you can make extra mixes that a
Mono, same signal to both channels, in phase (or 'correct' polarity).
Mono, one channel only.
Mono, same signal to both channels, out of phase (or reverse
ploarity).
There's also the idea that you won't approve of your CD being
played in any system 'live' unless you get to hear it played through
the system before the show, and if there's more than one CD player,
you only 'authorize' it for the CD player(s) you approved before the
show.
But I think it's overboard to have to do all that. Apparently
you've lost business over this, and it's apparently the fault of the
person(s) running the PA. Have you considered legal action against
that person(s)?
