Hi Carlos, Underpowering a speaker is not dangerous at all so long as you avoid excessive clipping. Different amplifiers have varying degrees of how well they handle clipping. This was more of an issue with older amps that had no internal DSP, in which case you needed to use your ears (hear...

Hi, There is no exact answer to your question. As with many audio questions like this, the answer is: It Depends. It depends in this case on how loud you intend to be, the style of music you play, and the type of overall mix you are going for (balanced, bass heavy, etc). I personally would...

It doesn't

Hi, If you are sending a click track to a channel of the mixer (or anything else for that matter, like a musical director's talk mic, that only the band should hear), then you need to make sure that not only is the master fader all the way down, but also that you DO NOT send anything on that...

Hi Derick, Even if pole mounting is possible, I'm just not a fan of doing that with a box of this size. My go-to instead for small gigs has been painter's scaffolding (the kind that has locking wheels and folds together all in one piece). Most home building supply stores such as Home Depot...

Hi Peter, I find Blackmagic support to be mediocre at best for this sort of thing. I know you may not want to invest in a different product given how low cost the Blackmagic units are vs alternatives, but I recommend Decimator converters. They have a variety of very good offerings such as the...

Hi Technically that will work, but it isn't very secure, as you've just exposed your console's remote control to the internet. There are lots of things out there scanning for open ports, it's not worth the risk in my opinion. A better way to do this would be to set up VPN access into your...

I reached out separately to Peter, we'll see if he is willing to provide plans for this.

Yes, sadly both PSW and Soundforums traffic has dropped drastically over the last decade. I still check occasionally and there is a ton of great historical content. Reddit has been more of my go-to in recent years, not a Facebook fan at all.

Same here, I have still never seen a Wing in use, but X32's, M32's and all of their smaller variants are still dominant in small venues, churches, etc. The X32 was successful essentially because of near perfect market timing. It was the lowest cost solution that had a reasonably professional...

Sorry, this currently does not exist. In the next few years there may be AI tools that can do this (there is already one for spoken word but it doesn't work with background music). Check this out: https://www.rask.ai/tools/video-translator

Car acoustics and sub models have so much variance that you should just try it a few different ways and see what works best. Some amps have a phase adjustment as well, which can help you get it dialed in. Good luck.

I would definitely say option 2. Of the options you listed the M32 would be my preference for monitors, it's fast and easy to get around as a monitor desk via the sends on fader mode, reasonably affordable, all IO is integrated for simple patching, less long in the tooth than the LS9. Not...

Yes, I really like the Avantis, this is a welcome lower entry point, as the full system tends to be out of budget for a lot of the HoW applications and other installs I've been involved with recently. 10K ballpark starting point....

Hi Steven, I'd suggest B&C, they are waterproofed and I've had very good luck with them in outdoor applications. You can find a variety of 18" sub designs on their site. https://www.bcspeakers.com/resources/suggested-designs/ - each one of these plans is for a specific driver of theirs so it's...

Fortus in an amazing musician and very generous with his time and sharing with the community. A true gear head and a great guy!

If controlling the low end (which is hard to do and the likely source of noise complaints) is going to be a problem, consider adding a Waves Maxxbass processor. They are a very useful tool for DJ rigs. They can give the acoustic illusion of very low bass, leave the real upper bass in place...

Matt, if you already have the wedges and you like them, then just build the proper wiring setup. You probably already have the inventory to do this. There are commercial versions as well if you want something a little cleaner. My quick and dirty way of doing this was to take 25ft IEC cables...

The answer, as always, is it depends. It all depends on the venue, the stage, and your objectives. Do you care about stage spill? There is no "best" placement that works universally.

Hi You could order APG-S from Ferrotec. I would call them to discuss the correct SKU.
