Correct
Drop into that centre channel. Keep length exactly the same. Heal it back into 1 file and name.
Check there is no hint of the dialogue in tracks l and r as there could be some divergencePeter

“I have been in situations where the house system is workable and very occasionally quite good.”I have also come across “quite good” in house systems, but still would never use them unless there is absolutely no alternative (which never happens).
My kit will always be my favourite, and id never tape a mic to a speaker. Thats never going to give me the sound im looking for.

Im afraid Id never record any sound from a speaker, under any circumstances.
If theyre using a horrible pa and mic, thats their look out but id still mic them up myself. atleast all id get is couloured sound from the speakers, but taping a mic to a speaker………..Id never even do that if i wanted a speaker effect in post – there are plugins thatll do speaker sounds better than speakers themselves, and its still controlable.

I agree.
“I think they’re not as fussy as you and I!”
I KNOW theyre not as fussy about sound as me.

I agree.
Id have a word with the bride and groom. At the end of the day they want everything to be as good as it can be. if you explain that the venues horrid PA is going to cripple the sound (and especially if its not a big venue where the need for a PA is questionable at all) then Im sure they can be persuaded not to use it at all!
Ive done that many times. I know exactly the problems youre taking about.

Taking a sound engineer wouldnt really help.
I have similar issues and ive been in broadcast sound for 29 years!Scanning your g3 would only help if the transmitter that they are using was also a sennheiser. then you could find the transmitter freq and couple into it. Chances are it isn’t – why
because
1) Theyre probably cheao skates and went with the cheapest option they could
2) There are infact many other manufacturers of radio mics out there
3) Cant think of 3.Bottom line. If there isnt an available output socket, or its inaccessible then you can’t – so do what i do.
Never use anyone elses kit! It will be rubbish anyway and probably fail, be wrongly configured, pop like mad, be riddled with interference and hum, and be generally unsatisfactory.
I take multiple radios to a wedding. 3 speeches = 3 personal g3. 4 speeches = 4 etc etc. – up to 6 then i struggle.
