Synopsis

Mixing monitors is one of the most demanding jobs in live audio.

When artists can't hear themselves, frustration builds quickly, communication breaks down, and small problems can become show-stopping issues. Yet while there are countless books on recording, front-of-house mixing, and music production, very few focus on the unique challenges faced by monitor engineers.

In Surviving the Hot Seat, veteran monitor engineer Michael Babcock shares the practical techniques, troubleshooting methods, and real-world lessons learned from decades of live production and touring.

Written in plain language and filled with field-tested advice, this guide covers everything from building better monitor mixes and managing stage volume to working with artists, solving problems under pressure, and navigating the realities of life on the road.

Inside you will learn:

  • How to build reliable monitor mixes
  • Communication techniques for working with artists
  • Practical troubleshooting and show-day workflow tips
  • Equipment selection considerations
  • Lessons learned from years of touring and live production
Whether you are mixing your first local show or supporting a major touring production, this book provides practical knowledge you can apply immediately.

Because when the show starts, there are no do-overs.
