Default Re: violin micing techniques

The player will almost certainly only want one ear on with the cans so they can hear direct from the strings. Not a problem as long as the other ear on your cans are closed off.
Note, if your headphone amp doesn't make concessions for this, you can pull out the 1/4" headphone jack just a tad and it will cut out one side. This may sound a tad jerry rigged, but it's not nearly as bad as having an uncovered headphone shoot right into a mic with lots of preamp gain.
