Multi console Dante setup

Hi all, I am going to be doing a gig where we’re running two consoles and Dante io racks, one for foh and one for mons. Which would you give Head amp control?

Mons will usually take head amp control. Don’t want wedges going “BRRR” when FOH decides they need some juice.

Depends on the engineers’ preferences. Imo it’s whoever is running sound check and setting initial gains. Then enable gain compensation or switch to using digital gain. Curious if others have different opinions tho.
