1. i am playing/jamming/recording/overdubbing X instrument/outboard & I just need to hear a nice diffuse rough mix…

2. i am mixing/editing/tweaking & my stereo/quad/5.1 positioning is critical

dont try and make 1 = 2

i am constantly reminded of scenario 1 by an old flat mate who would get 3 long guitar leads & 2 stomp boxes & chain them from the kitchen to the lounge & then play VERY FCKNG LOUD guitar, using the entire house as a Helmholtz resonator….
