Ive been to way too many chip shows where the trebles were KILLING people. IF you notice no one is directly in front the stage, maybe cut some highs a little.
Im not a fan of in ears cause it feels like you are so cut off from the crowd, and it really impedes my heckler avoidance techniques.
My personal advice would be to take Herr's word over mine, since he's been around for awhile, haha.

I made a 5/4 dance tune awhile back. You can hear it here:

Did pretty well, I'd say... Made it onto the new Homestuck album, haha.

What would you recommend for the physical distance between the PA speakers?
The physical distance is going to be different at all the venues, so it's hard to say, BUT I'd say about a 130 degree angle would be good for practice.

Re: Getting the best live mix for chip bands/chip + other instruments? (26 replies, posted in Audio Production)
Well, I'd look into both frequency and spatial mixing.
If you can spare some instrumental bass, the GB will fucking hog those low frequencies. My friends and I like to keep the actual instrumentation in the "mid" range and allow our 2 DMGs to take full low bass and high treble responsibilities.
Also, if any of your live instruments are going "line out" into a mixer, try panning them a little bit left or right. Your casios and the DMG can be panned even farther left and right, if you want.
EDIT: And one more thing! Playing live in a venue is always going to sound different than at your rehearsal space! Smaller areas soak up that treble, so you may have to boost your lead guitar/lead chip.
