ACM SFBAY Event at HP

I still can't avoid surprises! This time it was audio.  I use the same brand/model as the venue's PA system, so I did not need to provide my lav.  My receiver was "automagically" getting the signal.  Only in post I realized the quality was sub-par.  See, the venue provided two hand-helds and two lavs and all of them were on.  The good thing is you can easily hear the audience.  The bad thing is - you can easily hear the audience.  
Lessons to learn:
  • Monitor audio in real time using isolating earphones (they were in the bag!)
  • Make sure speaker's lav is the only one on.
Oh!  And another thing!  In retrospect I'd rather use tele zoom, not 25mm prime.

And here is a published clip:
