Blue socket is line level. Pink is mic level.

With respect to Ben, a 44.1/48 sample rate difference is going to be VERY obvious, as that's nearly a 10% difference which is a couple of semitones of tuning and it would drift very quickly and obviously. Consumer gear just sometimes doesn't have very accurate clocking, and two devices can just...

Not sure if this is legit or not, and obviously I would expect any response to be private and I would not share them with anyone... As a comparison point in an ongoing financial discussion with my usual pool of "clients", I would like to get some example quotes for a mid-level community theater...

https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mountain-play-san-rafael?select_video=1yH-_d8JQQdEZmjklYX9tw I'm thinking MSL-2 or -2A. Can anyone confirm? No big deal. Just interested. Other stills in that same Yelp profile, although this video is actually the clearest view.

Following on from my other "how big a rig for this room" thread, I'm now hoping (mainly for financial reasons) to keep the existing mains and just supplement them with a sub or two. I looked around as to what was available to rent, and of course most places offer QSCs. I wasn't previously aware...

...and align it properly, so I don't know how representative it would be. Sill interested in thoughts on one sub or two, and how big is too big if we *did* swap out the whole system. Attached is a pic of what the set might look like. Could maybe hide one under there, although I'd be worried...

...for that might not really do much other than at HF. Or, maybe I'm underestimating the FBTs, and with even more careful positioning and tuning, maybe *just* adding a (rented) sub or subs will be enough? Thoughts, please. Thanks in advance. Simon Eves Novato Theater Company Novato...

They've been out for a while now, but there's not much out there about them. My conclusions are that they're at least as good (some say better) than QSC K's, but not quite on a pair with the JBL PRX/SRX or Yamaha DSR, although cheaper than all of those (esp. the SRX). The Ultranet audio...

...WOODS I just finished had a very dynamic singer as the Witch. Sometimes she would be just whispering, and other times a full-on scream (which often *did* clip the transmitter, or at least pretty much peg the AF meter on the receiver). I had to ride her fader constantly because even in our...

In a few months, I'm going to be re-mounting a show in a theatre which has its own Soundcraft Si Expression 3 and Cat5 MADI snake to an on-stage Soundcraft Mini Stagebox (I can't remember if it's the 32/16 or 16/8 version, but hopefully in this context they are the same). I am doing the show...

Re: MD Vocals Monitor "Auto Gain"? Note that X32 buses don't have Gates, only Compressor/Expanders, and I'm using all 32 real input channels that do, otherwise maybe the Gate in Duck mode would have worked...? Edit: No, that's rubbish. That's the opposite. Maybe I need a Gate with a small...

So last night's new problem was that the monitor we set up for the MD/pianist to hear the wireless vocals is having to be set really loud for him to still hear them when the band is wailing around him. It's a Behringer B208D on its side on the floor next to him, and he's playing a baby grand. He...

So as I said in another thread, I recently stepped in to run sound for a musical theatre production at 10 days' notice when the regular sound guy had a nasty transportation accident. So far, I've done 28 hours there, evenings and all this weekend, and I shall be there 5 hours the next three...

(repost after accidental post in X32 sub-forum) So, to those of you who automate mutes and maybe DCA assignments on musicals... How often are you creating a new cue? Per scene? (assuming enough DCAs for people who aren't on the whole scene) Per entrance/exit? (this seems the most likely, at...

I'm thinking about getting an XR12 as a replacement for an ancient 8-channel analog board at a small theatre company I do sound work for occasionally. The website indicates that it can use an X-Touch as a MIDI controller, and supports Mackie protocol too. Can anyone please confirm whether it...

So I'm mixing a show opening Friday on an Expression 3, which I've never used before today (I'm an X32 man, for better or for worse...) I have RTFM'd, and I got further than I expected to in half a day, but I'm still stuck on a bunch of things... 1. It's running "v1.0 Build 9", which I'm...

This past two weekends, my X32 has been in use on a production of RENT, with a 2010 MacBook Pro 13 running QLab for sound FX, 4 channels in to 33-36 on the board, over FireWire Card 1-4, using a 6' FW800/400 cable. On Saturday night (of course, a night I wasn't there) they had a problem whereby...

A theatre I work in regularly has three flown QSC HPR122i's, which they bought from another frequent occupant who got fed up putting them up and down for their own shows, after the previous (crappy) house system died. The problem is that there is a gap in the coverage, as the seating area is...

Re: Possible to SAVE only sections of a Scene? (forgive laziness) Thanks, Tim. I found the sub-thread ("Cues and Scenes") between Dan and Jan Duwe, and it makes sense. My hope was that each parameter would remember where it came from, so that when you saved, it would update either the Scene...

What do people use to clean these mics? I have heard tell of ultrasonic jewelry cleaners for the removable caps. Can anyone recommend a particular model (ideally <$100 or even <$50). Is there any safe way (or need) to clean the mics themselves, or would that just damage them?
