Only using one in ear is very bad. You'll encounter what is called volume matching when you attempt to match the stage volume in one ear, to the isolated volume from your earbud. You create an illusion where in reality, the level from the earbud is actually 10-12db higher than the db level from the stage. You damage your hearing without even knowing it. Always keep both buds in. When experience isolation syndrome, you need to just play through it. It will go away if you give IEMs a chance.

I laughed, not sure why, but man lol

@Dougonbass good IEMs are studio reference quality. they *do* stay in if you have good tips that give you a good seal; someone with money to spend on them like kelly would have custom tips that are molded to her ears, so this should be a non-issue. i dunno about the itching, i've not had that problem. the problem with floor monitors is that the perceived loudness and staging changes whenever you move, but IEMs are consistent since they are always in your ears (well...)

I don't blame Kelly at all. I hate those f'n in-ears. They never sound good, they don't stay in, and if they do stay in, they itch. Give me floor monitors every time.

I think she only uses them to start off with, then from there she wings it.

@Stratosticks then why does Sting use one ear monitor in one ear only?

I'm a guitarist/singer and i know the in ear "problem" well. When everything is set perfectly its awesome. But its not working without ambience for me.

The good thing is, i play in a church regularly so we can work with the same sound technicians all the time. There were two major improvements we realized so far: Ambience and putting at least some or a big part of the PA mix on the IEM. Thats a big difference being able to hear what actually comes out the box instead of just have your own mix.

give me your iem's.

@Stratosticks that's weird most of the people I know like only using one because at alot of shows the Clubs are not equipped to get the whole mix in your in ears. so most people I know only have there selves in one ear with the in ear and leave the other out to hear everything else

i'm about to purchase some ultimate ears UE5's.. i'm also getting the ambient feature fitted, which means you can manually choose to let in a certain amount of DB's.. or block em out completely like the normal buds..i'm looking forward to getting em!
