Hi,
I've taken delivery of a pro2c and the only analogue inputs on the console are XLR. I need to plug in an iPod/cd player/notebook etc depending on the event. I have got a few XLR -> RCA > 3.5mm cables which I can use however.. I thought i'd get myself a couple of radial DI's for this purpose.
I've got one active, one passive - the proAV2 and JPC.
I plan on having these permanently connected to the console and live in the dog house. I'll use a couple of RCA > 3.5mm cables or 1/4" to 3.5mm cables to connect to the iPod etc.
I'd like to mount the DI's inside the dog house so that they are secure but still accessible if I need to pull them out from time to time (change cables, use on stage instead, whatever).
Any ideas on how to make these secure yet easily accessible ? I was thinking of using wide velcro tape and having a strip on the dog house to secure it to.
Dog house is pretty deep - i've got a 2RU drawer under the console so plenty of room.
Second install is a WAP for ipad access. I was thinking of doing the same with velcro or something more permanent (will rarely need to change) or.. rackmounting one and putting it with the stage box. I've not used the iPad app yet so i'm not sure if i'd use it more near FOH or stage if that makes a difference - probably not in large ballrooms where most of my work is.
Ideas ?
