    IPad does not control faders on Soundcraft SI Expression

    Reset your router - the "push the button on the box/insert the paper clip" type of reset. You want to go back to the out of the box experience. Port triggering should not be necessary. You should not need to do anything with network settings to make it work. Seriously, get the IP addresses...

    Soundcraft GB8 24-Channel Reset?

    The forums here as SFN require participants user their real first and last names to post. You'll want to go to your profile and change the name accordingly or David will get ever so stern with you!

    Recommendations for a Reliable Soundproofing Company in Fort Lauderdale?

    I suggest you start with some DIY learning (not necessarily DIY construction) with this book: https://www.amazon.com/Master-Handbook-Acoustics-Seventh-Everest/dp/1260473597/ What are your expectations for sound transmission loss?

    Behringer X32 Producer - low mic levels when recording via USB to Logic Pro X

    The full scale display in your DAW is literally ZERO dB Full Scale. You would be out of 1's and 0's. From the early days of digital recording and all of analog recording, "hitting the tape" with the most level before clipping was important from a signal to noise standpoint. With 24 bit words...

    Opinions on BOSE 802 Series II (2) PROFESSIONAL LOUDSPEAKER ??!!

    I'm one of those people, but in fairness to Bose the equipment they were/are making is based on brand recognition and some actual physics; the question was if those were the right things for a given task, and often they were not. Kind of a classic case of using an under-spec'd device and being...

    Powering my gear with a generator.

    You can probably power a very small rig like that with a Jackery or similar power bank for hours. You'd have the additional benefit that it would be silent. If you're playing weddings or folk gigs that's probably a big plus.

    Helmholz resonator contruction

    I suggest spending a few $ on The Master Handbook of Acoustics, 7th ed, Everest and Pohlmann. https://www.amazon.com/Master-Handbook-Acoustics-Seventh-Everest/dp/1260473597/

    Ferrofluid in Meyer Sound

    Ferrofluid, or its remnants, cannot be cleaned out and replaced without removal of the voice coil, which means spider and cone, too.

    Dummy guitar cabs, where to get?

    Clarify the point

    Clipping causes more heat in the voice coil and heat is the long-term enemy of both transducers and electronic components. A clipped waveform has more output which must be dissipated. It's not a form of instantaneous failure, but over time is detrimental. That said, I tended to power-limit...

    Randomly Overheating Blackmagic Design Converters

    I'm far, far from stupid. If you want to have a conversation centering on personal attacks, you will loose. Trust me on this one. BMD as a company makes many compromises in design that limits the longevity or functionality of their products but because of the price point, many owners or users...

    Randomly Overheating Blackmagic Design Converters

    BMD is for folks with low budgets or who can live with the inherent flaws in Grant Petty's cheap-ass AV products.

    Dan Dugan, the 'auto mix' guy...

    Is also a recordist of immersive nature soundscapes. He gave a presentation to the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Audio Engineering Society a couple months ago and it is now on YooToob.

    A not so DIY line array

    Peter Morris hasn't been on this site since Jan 4, 2024. Agree with Jason Joseph that Face-space will get quicker attention.

    M32C Inputs and Effect Limits

    In a word, no... not at the same time. The default XLR patching has buses 13 & 14 on XLR outputs 13 & 14, with XLR outputs 15 & 16 patched to main L & R. While EFX 1 is patched to BUS 13, you don't have to use it. You can unpatch it in the EFFECTS EDIT, or dedicate that effects slot to a...

    X32 Rack - Assign Front Panel Knobs - Where is it in Version 4??

    In full sized X/M32 that would be the equivalent of pressing the "VIEW" button in the ASSIGN control group. Took me a minute to figure that out; the key combo used for the Rack doesn't work on the full size desk.

    Whats the best Com system to have for rental inventory

    Hi Ben- Do a search for the "handbook of intercom engineering", IIRC it was Telex/AudioCom but the concepts apply to all brands of party line intercoms. The Big Kids play with matrix coms now, many of which have IP capability, so your participants can be almost anywhere there's internet, or...

    Behringer x32 Rack matrix routing question

    I'm looking at X32 Edit and the answer seems to be "no". The SEND pick off from the input channel appear to be unsplittable pairs of odd/even.
