Of course for optimum fidelity, the sound should be measured in the center of the theater about 3/5 of the way back from the speakers. But these days, a board can be placed anywhere an operated from an iPad from anywhere in the venue. There's no reason that the board can't be located out of sight controlled by sound man with an iPad sitting in the audience.
You just made up my mind......I am going to email The Sharon with a link to this thread. Thanks Doc.
