when you record live acts, where do you normally set up? behind the stage somewhere in the corner? out with foh with the live crew or sitting in a deadened booth with long cables?

I have a little beat-up camper trailer I like to park outside and run a snake from a snake splitter. Getting physically seperated from the club helps a lot.

why do you need a booth? send everything to protools or adat and mess with it later.

A truck is deffenently the way to go. You need to be able to hear if you lose somthing in the middle of the show. More important, you need to be able to get sounds durring sound check, and you will NEVER be able to do that if you can hear the sound from the stage.
You will need some way to talk to someone in the room durring sound check so you can tell them if you are getting what you need.

if something sounded bad on stage, you would fix it from the FOH's perspective. I think I would notice if the bass DI needed the ground lifted if I was running live sound. If it sounds good out front, it will sound good to tape. I'm still not convinced you would need a truck and snake.

I'd say at least good set of isolating head phones. Depending on the setup, there may be a lot of the sources that are not up in the FOH enough to spot tone and other problems, or it may be so damned loud you can't hear squat for sure, yea?
