Anyone out there ever mic tap dancing to mix a little into the house PA?
We tried a couple of PCCs in front of the dancers and didn't get much.
Any advice welcomed.

Oh great, just what I need, 80 dancers coming up to me with comments
like 'The mids in my left shoe are lower than my right,' or 'can you
turn my feet up in my mix, please?'



That's when you switch your EQ not to peak nor shelf, but arch...

And of course, to make a judgement like that, be sure your monitors are properly
toe'd, otherwise they'll call you a heel.

(Way too many more bad puns come to mind, so I'll stop now.)
