Hello everyone, my question is related to the sense of having an FRFR speaker on stage.
If you have an FRFR speaker, you do not need a microphone, right? because you can get the direct signal from the helix or from the direct speaker output to the PA. So, why not take the direct line from Helix to the mixer and have the monitoring by the in-ear ?. They are cheaper, you can move around the stage, less weight, etc ...
In the in-ear you can have your signal and the signal of the component of the band you want.
Today, professionals use in-ear systems for on-stage monitoring.
If the stage is small or you play at home and do not need microphones, an FRFR speaker does make sense, but if you play on medium or open air stages, you can connect directly to the mixer and have the monitoring in the in-ear
