I use sensaphonics in-ear monitors http://www.sensaphonics.com and they rock. I sub-mix acoustic and electric guitars, percussion, vocals and guitar synth into the EDP from a Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro Mixer and have no problem with leakage (except crowd noise from excited yelling fans). But I guess that's not THAT bad of a problem to have. -Arthur Lee www.arthurleemusic.com -----Original Message----- From: Mark Sottilaro [mailto:sine@zerocrossing.net] Sent: Sunday, January 19, 2003 1:45 PM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Re: looping with a mic I've been dreaming of a earbud/headphone system to use as monitors for years. I know a lot of big acts use them exclusively. Anyone here using something like that?
