A band I play in has a practice space in a basement where it’s a small stage, and then a couple pretty loud powered mains facing back at the stage for monitoring (like K12s).
Their soundman recently said I should now bring my cab for my Kemper as to “leave room in the monitors for vocals”. Note- I’ve played through the monitors for a long time and never thought it to be an issue..
I’m not sure this is how speakers work. I’m of the school of thought that this will only make us louder as now I’ll have a cab basically pointed elsewhere and guitar frequencies will now be bouncing all around the room and we will all have to turn up to compensate.
Do we have to leave room in speakers?
Thanks
