Combo vs Monitor - echo

Recommended Posts

I play in a church Worship Team and I run an electro-acoustic through a Peavey Bandit 65, on stage today I noticed that I could hear both my combo and a slightly delayed version through my monitor also, they were clashing with each other and when I listened back to the livestream it was annoyingly noticeable.

 

It’s never happened before so I might go back to running straight into the DI again obviously I want what’s best for everyone.

 

Has anybody else had this problem before and how did you get over it?

If there's any ADA processing in any part of the signal chain after the feed is split, sometimes it can introduce a slight delay.  But moving the combo to fix it suggests the issue might have been reflection off a wall or ceiling.

Interesting to read this experience with your equipment. My church is a large, Georgian building, and when it comes to the hymns, if you listen very closely, the balcony are just a fraction of a second ahead of the main seating area in the ground floor, owing to the organ pipes being up on the balcony. It's a fascinating delay if you notice it - though you have to be listening out carefully for it or you wouldn't notice. These aspects of the relationship between the physical space and the player's equipment are fascinating, imo.
