In Reply to: a fun read on the Dead's Wall of Sound over AM coffee. John Curl, enjoy posted by rhyno on July 12, 2015 at 05:13:36:
In my opinion, one of the critical, and possibly the most important, factors which made the "wall of sound" concept possible was the microphone setup designed by John Curl. Without it, feedback would have been a constant and overwhelming problem. The vocal mics consisted of two matched B&K omnidirectional precision measurement microphones, spaced a more-or-less ideal distance apart vertically, going into a differential summing amplifier, with a control for the musician to control his volume level, all designed by John Curl.
It's both funny and sad to read comments on various audio forums where people take guesses at why there were two mics. One of my favorite moronic posts (on gearslutz.com) is that one mic was used for the main PA, and the other was used for the monitors. LOL
