    Well, the great news is that this guy doesn’t look anything like a god-damned villain…

      If you asked me what Thunderf00t would look like if he became a priest instead of a scientist/youtuber this is what id imagine.

        Maybe just an off day, could be that he just got up on the wrong side of the swastika shaped bed this morning…

        Probably being filmed.
        It’s rare that filming will want the same feed as is going to a PA. Sometimes they have to due to logistics, but they will moan about it

            If the live engineer is crappy and causes feedback or echo (like on the brink of feedback) that goes straight to records. There is no way to fix it in post (well, no decent way, and takes ages to dial in something mostly acceptable ).
            If it’s a “feel of being live” that’s required in post, most lavs are omni so will pick up a bunch of atmo noise. It will likely feel live by virtue of being live. I imagine they have some mics on the camera as well for atmo.

            Maybe the records aren’t set up for a feed from the sound desk. Maybe the sound desk isn’t able to provide a clean feed.
            The lav mic is probably wireless, with the receiver direct into a camera. They don’t have any gain-before-feedback physics to contend with, so they can gain it however they want.
            And if they are doing any spots not in front of the mic on stage (or a mic through the sound desk), they will need a mic anyway. If they always use the same mic, then the sound will be consistent.

            Better to have an independent feed.

            But who cares, the guy is a piece of shit. Any videos he’s gonna put out are not for the benefit of humanity
