Recently, I went to a rehersal room with some friends. There was a bass and two electric guitars. The constant problem we faced was the balance of the instruments. We just could not get a nice balance of sound, each instrument lost in a mass of sound, even when turning down/off the gain. I would love to know if there are some basic rules for the rehersal room e.g where should the guitarists stand, which way should the amps face etc.
Our very own Laz (Dan Lasley), an experienced bass player and sound engineer, wrote an excellent article for this site on that very subject:
Enjoy.

A big thank you to Helgi Briem for that article.
Haven't read that one in years. Great article Dan.
