    Finally gave up on Vbullentin huh...

    I can remember when Sound Forums and PSW split many years ago. I think both lost out, and feel even today, the two together would be so much stronger. I suspect there was much more than VBulletin vs whatever software controversy. I can't help but wish... (sigh). In the meantime, carry on...

    Console-iPad signal improvement

    Another couple options: 1. As mentioned, a higher gain directional antenna 2. A second (or third) access point / wireless router running the same SSID but on a different channel. That would allow you to roam seamlessly over a larger distance. In my cafe, I run three access points, same SSID...

    Neutrik silent plugs

    I made a couple cables a couple years ago and have only had one issue - a cable would not seat deep enough in one Telecaster. Simple "fix" was to swap cable ends. Other than that, operates as advertised. frank

    So...What are you carrying as a backup mixer? (or are you?)

    Well, I had my first mixer meltdown this weekend during a soundcheck. Fortunately, I was 1/2 mile from the house, so retrieving another mixer was not a huge issue. For the job later in the evening, I dragged the old MixWiz along. I know I dodged a bullet earlier in the afternoon. So...

    Crowded out again? What does this mean for wireless in the audio industry?

    So, where do you position your laptop

    Hi folks, Seems mixing anymore is incorporating laptop(s) for one thing or another, i.e., Smaart, lighting, amp control, recording, remote connection to mixer, etc. So, where do you position your laptop? Beside the console, save real estate and put above the console (ala DJ), set up on a...

    Does anyone think this is inappropriate

    Pseudo-intellectual bully with a sound level meter

    Hi Folks, I'm not sure if I'm asking for something from you, or whether I'm just venting. Probably just venting. But if you have something... Background In our little town, we hold a number of festivals that include a stage and music in the town center. Bands either play for free, of...

    How long do your XLR connectors last?

    Hi folks, Well, my pile of XLR cables that need connector replacement is starting to need attention. The venue I take care of has just about anyone and everyone handling the cables - the ones I've taught handle them "properly" but there are others I do not know of. Some more careful than...

    Mutiple Power Taps - Backine Power...

    Good morning, all, I have read a number of postings here as to not using normal Home Despot quad boxes on a cord to extend power for the stage. The general recommendation was those hard rubber - type boxes - from I don't remember who (but I have it in links). I've also read here that one...

    My first blown speaker (sigh)

    Friday night, the woofer in an old EV FM12-2a let go. I'm in the process of doing a postmortem and am looking to do an analysis of cause. What I do know so far is that it is the original EV 12'' speaker, something is rubbing on the magnet, and the voice coil is open. Cone is intact and still...

    Ford Transit Connect

    Anyone have any experience with the Ford Transit Connect for hauling audio gear? With a 1600 lb payload and 135 cu.ft, I'm guessing it may cube out before weighing out. Seems it might be more than adequate for a weekend warrior - at least better than the station wagon. And as a side...
