Man, we should all do this more often.
Got out the analyzer tonight, and a new laser distance meter I got
recently:

Accurate to a millimeter.
I put a target on a mic stand right where my ears are and found that
the speakers were not toed in right, and were not the same distance
from the target...
Then I got the FFT analyzer out and dang, the sub is going nuts.
Turns out the sub is about 5db hot...
Yipes!
Some roughs of the live project went out and everyone said they
were weak in the bass. There it is...
HEY DJ! Your mixes are NOT bass heavy! sorry
Checked you monitoring rig recently??
hmmm?

no, you don't need a fancy laser to check this, a tape measure
works fine, and you can get audio analysis apps for cheap these
days. if you can't hear you can't mix!
Big mix session for the live record tomorrow. Wish me well!
