Hi pianokeys,
Well, 0.5 seconds will be A LOT, it will be WAY less than that. I'm not saying it would be OK to have "so much bleed". Put it this way. It will not be bad to have "a bit" of bleed. It will help you blend the mix with the choir, since you'll capture some of the ambience. I'm also thinking that the mix is already there or at least at a 90%?
On the other hand you can always send your 2 track thoruhg a pair of speakers, after the choir finishes, and this "could" also help you in the mix. Got it? Lots of people do this type of things. It works.
Very important thing for you. You HAVE to explain them what you are going through and they HAVE to know it is NOT a normal situation in ANY SENSE. Facing two choirs together because "it has to be this way" or etc etc etc.
I am just telling you because it can get a bit complicated. If this is very important for them and they want the thing to be brilliant etc etc etc...hmmm...make them rent 150 headphones.
I wonder why other people are not chimimng in.
I will add the word Neve and Bricasti so that when they search they find your thread.
Best,
José
