following up a message from Richard Webb to all:  
    
  In case you're wondering I'd like to tell you waht prompted  
  my query of last week, and invite anybody to comment.  
    
  A thread in the newsgroup rec.audio.pro was touting a new  
  development in the personal monitoring system world which  
  enables folks to control their mix via an iPhone app.  Hmmm, this old geezer  
  still likes actualbuttons and knobs, and  
  doesn't own an iPhone with no plans to acquire one.  
    
  Were I to find myself gigging with folks who'd gone in-ear  
  I'd be glad to probably visit my friendly audiologist to do  
  the ear mold, etc.  But, the last thing I want to do as a  
  blind man is have to deal with a gui while I'm on the  
  bandstand.  
    
  Then there comes the question of festival type gigs.  WEre I doing the  
  provision of a system for an event such as this I  
  might be loath to reconfigure my monitor mix desk, amps etc. to accomodate  
  in-ears and personal monitor mix stations for  
  one act that might play 45 minutes.  
    
  So, for anybody who's a performer who uses them I'm curious  
  what you do in festival type situations.  
    
    
  Regards,  
             Richard
