Another "I don't do that" :-) I don't find monitoring myself via headphones while playing and placing mics to be effective. I get better results by recording short segments and listening back over monitors. Repeat until happy. I haven't tried every headphone out there, I can see it'd be faster if it worked, but with the ones I have tried, my results have ended up being misleading. It's actually been a while since I needed to do anything more than just a quick sanity test - I've done it enough that I know where the mics need to go, with what I have. If I am testing new mics, I go thru the trial and error process again, tho.
