If I understand correctly, you\'re using one mt-24 head as a key light, and one as a fill. To achieve this, you\'re placing them further apart with separate flashshoes.
Nope -just thinking of them in terms of \"key\" and \"fill\" based on their position relative to the subject. The video in this post will give you an idea about how I\'m using the flash heads (although I\'ve recently redesigned the diffusers).

Q. for the main light / fill light principle, do you vary A:B ratio\'s or do you just vary flash distances?
Just the flash positions -due to the angle of the fill there is very little light reaching the subject from it. I\'m almost always cutting part of it off with the critter\'s perch (in this case the kitchen table and the napkin were blocking about half of it). So there\'s no need to vary the ratios since the scene, more often than not, will do that for me. With the \"A\" flash head positioned as the key and angled down just about all of its light is hitting the scene and getting reflected back into the lens.
