Here's the short version of this question:
Guitarist is in the control room. Obviously, deck, monitors, and console are in the control room.
Speaker cabinet is in a room 100 feet away.
What's the best way to manage things so that this will work out?
1) Put the amp in the control room and run really long speaker and mic cables.
2) Put the amp in the room with the cabinet and run really long guitar and mic cables (seems like it would be really noisy and have large potential for RF interference).
3) Use a wireless system on the guitar and run just a long mic cable.
4) Something else??
I have access to a snake and/or direct boxes, if that makes any difference.
I'm just not sure of the best way to go about recording in this situation and still keeping noise to a minimum.
Thanks much!
