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

    I finally figured it out. The secret key combo is "MUTE GRP + UTILITY" and then you have 4 tabs. The Home tab is where you actually use the knobs you set on the SETs A,B and C tabs. I used SET C to setup basic fader control of 4 channels. To use it I have the HOME tab active and arrowed down...

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

    There used to be a key combo that would jump you to "page C" where you could assign the front panel knobs to channel faders etc. My Google Fu is weak. I'm not finding the instructions for this. And I suspect that it was changed in version 4 of the firmware? Anyone still use this? Or remember how...

    Recycling Neodymium woofer magnets?

    You're probably right about the economics. But it would seem to me that a professional loudspeaker would be the ideal item to try recycle. There's a much larger piece of magnet there than in all the small devices. And given the concern that the US gov and military seem to have about the supply...

    Recycling Neodymium woofer magnets?

    Given the political and geographical situation with rare earth metals, I've been curious about the recyclability of speaker magnets. In my travels I've never heard any talk about this from manufacturers or anywhere else. I've got a handful of B&C woofers that, despite the availability of recone...

    Documenting loud bass from a neighbor

    Fight fire with fire? Set up your own subwoofer system (tell the other neighbors that it's only to teach this guy a lesson), find out when he sleeps and then crank it away (at legal levels) so that he gets the point. I've had thoughts over the years about building a bass array into the back...

    Best Ultra Short-Throw Projector under $2000

    I haven't tried any of the little all-in-one short throws but have some experience with the Panasonic DLP projectors with the ET-DLE030 lens. At $5k for the lens alone, it certainly doesn't fit your budget but with 6-7k lumen projectors on screens as wide as 12' I've found the Panasonics to be...

    60 Degree DIY Mid Hi - AKA PM60

    So, were the PM boxes contaminating the Vertec's? Or vice versa? ;)

    Could a MOSFET based device be used to build something like a stepped attenuator?

    It's been a long time since I looked at solid state analog audio switching chips but I seem to recall that most of them had less than "studio grade" distortion specs. Relays, despite their other issues were often the better way to accomplish this without disturbing the signal. In today's world...

    Unity Wireless WIFI Intercom?

    Anyone have experience with this? I'm looking for a low cost way to add a few wireless coms to a system for occasional use. Their cloud version looks like reasonable pricing except that it doesn't apparently support wiring into another intercom system. I would think that one client...

    Anyone recognize this woofer?

    Old square magnet woof woof. I'm curious what it is (I can't remember where it came from) and perhaps if anyone is interested in owning it. http://avequipment.postach.io/post/15-woofer-not-sure-what-it-is

    front/rear combo screen surfaces

    I've seen these in the catalogs (Da-Lite dual vision etc) and may have used one once a long time ago but don't really have enough experience with them to have an opinion. So, I'm looking for opinions. Obviously, the "gain" is going to be low compared to a dedicated front or rear on account of...

    Dear console manufacturers - Coat Sleeve Surprise

    This is a wish list item. Come up with a way to avoid the "coat sleeve surprise". I want the console to ignore inadvertent volume boosts when I catch a fader knob with my coat sleeve. :lol: Some of you know what I'm talking about. Looking at this realistically, I wonder if it is possible...

    When will my warehouse be "self aware"?

    I'm looking forward to the day when you can unload the truck into the shop and the system will automatically know what came back and therefore also what didn't come back. I haven't been following RFID closely but I did just happen upon this product that was launched via kickstarter...

    Searching discussions on the interwebs

    A while back Google removed the standard filtering option for limiting search results to discussions and about 6 weeks ago they shut down the work arounds. I'm rather unhappy about this since I do find it very useful depending on what I'm researching. I'm curious what some of the brilliant...

    [WTT] I'll give (2) B&C 12CX32 coaxial drivers for (2) 12NCX

    I've got 4 wedges that more or less match as far as size, shape and finish. Two of them are loaded with 12NCX drivers and two with 12CX32 drivers. For my purposes I prefer the 12NCX and would rather have all my boxes match. I know this is a long shot but I'm throwing it out there, anyone got a...

    Did "likes" disappear?

    John Roberts made a funny and I wanted to give him a thumbs up but it seems that the 'like' feature is g,g,gone.

    Do you take your crossover for granted? [Powered Speakers]

    Anyone who has spent time with measurement gear trying to iron out the crossover between a "top" and subwoofer knows that it's more complicated than many manufacturers let on. And don't get me started about subwoofer management in home theater receivers! Now, depending on who you ask, powered...
