    Routing keyboard bass for FOH

    A great many sound systems are configured with a separate feed from the mixer to the subwoofers in much the same way that each monitor mix is sent separately. This allows the sound mixer to emphasis bass elements of the mix with a single fader when needed. It also allows the engineer to...

    SD12 help

    VMware for Mac is free now just requiring an installable copy of Windoze to run. Pretty handy thing to have on a Mac for a variety of things. That said the editor software isn't quite as good an introduction to the DigiCo surface as say the Yamaha editors are for Yamaha consoles. Still the...

    Very faint output to mains from most channels - ProFX16 mixer

    "important switch" 😏 I would have spent a good 15 minutes troubleshooting that if I'd been dropped in to mix on one of those. Not a bad feature but I sure hope it has an angry red blinking light when engaged.

    IPad does not control faders on Soundcraft SI Expression

    The Soundcrafts remote control functionality are not noted for being very robust. That said you may have better luck with the Mixing Station app but even there the Soundcrafts don't get high marks.

    PRX712 Amp module issue

    In the face of inexplicable problems its never a bad idea to unmate and remate any PCB connectors several times and inspect the board for jumpers or socketed ICs ( very rare these days )

    M32 setup

    Lots of Youtube videos can walk you thru these questions better than explanations on a forum like this but one thing that makes everything easier on the X32/M32 platform is to configure the console with a computer control app like that provided by Behringer or the Mixing Station app. The console...

    Working with other peoples scenes

    The cake and eat it too solution to all of this is to do your scene management on a computer or iPad. Pull the scene or scenes from the console you think might be the best starting place and adjust from there or start from scratch either way you're up and running without making changes to the...

    Roland O.R.C.H.A Console (M-5000) discussion

    I've never seen or touched an M5000 but your question is more likely a computer OS question. Have you installed the appropriate driver for your computer from the Roland site?

    Randomly Overheating Blackmagic Design Converters

    Not a video guy at all but I'm curious if this depends on the type of file that is being feed to the convertor. I do know that compressed files are strongly discouraged in audio playback systems as the computers may not be able to decode fast enough to read the cues.

    KEF IQ3 Speaker Repair

    Contact KEF and ask if they make recone kits for these drivers and also ask if they can recommend a reconing shop. Speaker reconing while fairly easy does require training. Watch a Youtube video or two and see if you want to try it on your own. Keep in mind that every speaker model is different...

    My Shure 55 'Elvis Mic' hás a problem!

    The set screw in the plastic connector body has backed down from the connector housing in the bottom of the mic. Turn the set screw so that its fully recessed into the plastic connector body. Connect a female XLR to the male pins of the connector now presumably hanging by tiny wires and line up...

    QSC TouchMix 16 sound problem fixed (other touchmix versions may also get this)

    A differential drive pair of opamps does not a transformer make.
