I've only tried this at home, seems like works so I'm going to try it tonight at a gig:
It's sort a poor man's in-ear monitor system. I'll be setting an sm57 out in front of the band, facing the band. Run the mic to a crate powerblock, with an alesis 3630 comprssor in the effects loop, and then use the headphone out with my Etymotic earbuds. I'm hoping this will save my already battered ears from more damage and provide me with decent monitoring sound.
My question is; what would be a good choice for a relatively inexpensive mic for this application.
Note: We only run vocals through the PA so feeding my earbuds from the monitor buss isn't an option.
