Great video, I think I have learned something but I have a question: I have very little experience in corporate shows, so probably my thinking is wrong, but wouldn't it be better to change the insert position of the automixer and the 5045, so that the 5045 "gates away" all the background noise and only the voice runs into the automixer. The other way around, some frequencys could trigger the automixer and then get cut by the 5045, so that some of the automixer gain gets wasted.

[@imdomtrotta]

So if I insert the automix before the fader unfortunately every mic will effect the automix even if not live, as I have only one way to choose where to put the insert point I prefer to put that after the fader so I only have the automix working with the mic that are live, the 5045 in my case it's just there to help a bit the work that auto mix is already doing.
Thanks for your comments, I'm always happy to hear other opinions and if any other sound op has done something different I will be more than happy to try.
