    Behringer WING console

    All joking aside, the Wing is great but it's not the game changer that the X32 line was. Most of us already own enough of these products and have them driven by tablets that a new desk filler is kinda redundant. If one were mixing the same show on a regular basis it would be great.

    COB LED, the new Chip On Board stuff

    I see Chauvet and AMDj have 30w COB LED stuff out. A little searching finds some 100w and 150w pro stuff. Has anyone played with any of it? There's a lot of talk of it being bright and being easier to look at. Just curious.

    xlr release plunger broken, tips on removing the cable

    I need a little help. I have an x32-rack and today, for the first time, I plugged into channel 6. Apparently, the release plunger is broken. It has no spring and you can feel it's not pushing against anything. The barrel moves smoothly in the socket. When I try to pull it out it pulls the...

    Proel WD12

    So what does anyone know about Proel? I see their WD10/12/15 coaxial powered monitor at a few sites. I like the look, the layout and the price but they seem to have no foot print in America. The only things I've found is that their US rep seems to also be an embroiderer and there have been...

    monitoring for an X32-Rack on the cheap.

    So I was trying to think of an inexpensive way of monitoring my X32-Rack for the few times I'm working with opening acts. I didn't want to spend the money on a wireless system and the idea of using dedicated wireless headphones was a non-starter. Then I found this Amazon.com: AudioMate AM8112...

    weird phantom problem? Mic with a hissy fit

    Last night my trusty AT 3035 was unusable. It hissed like a cheap AM radio between stations. It passed a little audio but not much. My first thought was the mic cable so I swapped that out. No change. So I took the mic apart and checked for anything odd. It looked fine so I killed the phantom...

    tripp lite LCR2400

    Is there any love for the Tripp Lite LCR2400 here? I'm looking for cleaner power for the X32-Rack. I've used Tripp-lite product before and had good luck with it. I was looking at the Furman but this seems more industrial. Opinions? Experience? 2400 watts makes me think I could run a pair of...

    after reading several positive reviews of the SXM112A, I thought I'd check out a few. I left a message at the operator box of Alto phone number asking them to call me if they're still in business. No call yet. Anyone know anything?
