Someone please find out if the performance was being multi-track audio recorded at the time when the shooting started.
Comparing the various tracks in any multi-track audio software, and drilling down to a millisecond display of waveforems, you would be able to tell if the sound of the shot got to a microphone stage right first versus stage left microphone, and be able to tell if the microphone at the front of the stage where the singer was located got the sound later.
There is a video of some smug Mr. Know-it-all ass with bald head wearing glasses who say that the shots were coming from the venue and not the Mandalay Bay hotel. If we can see the multi-track waveforms of the concert recording, I am sure Mr. Know-it-all can be slapped down for his own good.
Back some years ago , I piped the signal from my Garrard Zero-100 turntable to Creative Sounds stereo records on my computer and I was able to tweak the side-to-side adjustment on the pickup shell to find the precise 90 degree tracking angle when I lined up the exact whack of a snare drum on both stereo tracks.
What a joy that was to listen in on perfect tracking.
Just how good are the records themselves for l/r channel phasing?

That’s a good question, was it being professionally recorded on audio or video?
here’s one from what looks like right center facing the stage. Slow it down to the lowest speed and at mark 10sec you can see a gal pointing her finger to the right and you can see a piece of big white rectangular equipment that was hit that’s smoking majorly (at least I think that’s equipment smoking - was there a food stand behind the stage that could account for the smoke?). I’d have been over that front barrier and under the stage so fast...
