    Old out of warranty gear breaking down? Don't give up on it yet!

    I learned a valuable lesson recently while trying to repair my ~10 year old MOTU interface... call the manufacturer first!

    Do you Solder your SpeakOn Connectors?

    I'm after some simple survey data and opinions for an upcoming instructional video. I've searched and read through the posts from years past, and am hoping the community here would take a moment and help with some current opinions. Thanks!

    [FS] Yamaha 01v96 (V2 Firmware) / Yamaha MY16at Card

    Ok everyone, I put out a feeler on this one a little while back, finally just got back into town and found some time to take some photos. Just to recap- I'm hoping to sell the console locally, I've shipped these before and I just don't have time right now to deal with shipping this one if it...

    [FS] Putting out a feeler - Yamaha 01v96 (v2 Software) + MY16AT Card

    Hey everyone.. I'm just putting out a feeler here to see if anyone is interested. (PHOTOS TO FOLLOW, once I get home and get it out of it's Pelican case) I'm hoping to sell this locally and not have to deal with packing and shipping this guy, so a local cash sale would be preferred. The...

    [FS] Anyone have a use for these?

    These were thrown in on a deal a few years back, and I have no use for them. As far as I know, they are completely roached, need new capsules etc. I contacted a few mic repair guys, but was directed back towards Beyer... which ain't going to be cheap (might as well buy a new one). One of these...

    Figure 53 releases QLab-3 and QCart which looks awesome!

    Thought this was worth a mention if you haven't heard about it yet: I've just been playing around with the new QLab 3 release, which is pretty cool, has iOS support and an interesting new layout. The real party though is their release of QCart which is a cart player (as you would imagine)...

    Mounting DI's and WAP's in dog house

    Re: Mounting DI's and WAP's in dog house You do recall correctly! They make both the J-Clamp and the Pro-Clamp, depending on which box you are attempting to clamp down. Industrial velcro is one of the most fantastic things ever produced, but in a dog-house, after a long day outdoors...

    A quick bit of time-lapse video fun... mixing monitors.

    Here's a quick time-lapse video I took last night during my gig mixing monitors on an LS9-32 at a corporate gala. Big thanks to the Event-Tech crew out of Baltimore who provided the rig, and made it an easy and fun night. Mixing Monitors - Time-Lapse - YouTube

    Non X32 Digital Mixer Questions

    Re: Non X32 Digital Mixer Questions Did your GLD come with a Flux Capacitor option card? I don't think anyone would have turned you down 10+ years ago, if you had shown up with a lightweight, affordable and capable digital package... I was so done with lifting the Spirit console around...

    How much is that Mackie?

    I know that lots of folks who list gear on Craigslist often leave some room in their list price for some good-natured bargaining... But this is getting silly. Maybe he used the old MAP + MSRP formula. Cost + 300% ? Or maybe he's anticipating the (vintage) value of it being an analog console...

    Another questionable & amusing Craigslist Ad

    I came across this ad this morning, some of this guys wording is pretty funny. Maybe this system could cover 3000 people outdoors... :cry: I can't tell at the end if he is asking $12k or if he is claiming it would all cost that much "new" .... unfortunately, the R&D on building a time machine...

    Shure Lav clip

    Re: Shure Lav clip A nice in-between priced set that I see quite a bit in my daily work is the TRAM TR-50 kit. Priced @$250 or so for the whole kit and comes with a pile-o-options for attaching it in various situations... I also dig their windscreens with the flat back, so they don't get...

    Has anybody layed hands on the mackie DL1608 yet?

    Re: DL32 version I just saw this on the local Craigslist here in DC.... so apparently they have made it into the real world. I don't know how many people are going to be lining up to give this joker a $1500 deposit to rent a console, but you gotta give him credit for at least trying not to...

    Hey club guys, lets see your offices (FOH)!

    This is the FOH position at the U Street Music Hall here in dc. To the right and behind mix position is the amp rack with all the amps & dsp, along with two D-Racks and XLR fan-out whips from the stage boxes creating an i/o patchbay for the system. Everything else you need at FOH is in the SD9...

    Sneaky Sound System

    So, the gig went great... Really easy act to work with. I'll upload some more pics of the gig & setup tomorrow if anyone's interested. The SD9 was fantastic, hands down one of my favorite consoles to use in that price range. I don't know what others think of the workflow, but I immediately felt...

    Sneaky Sound System

    I just picked up a FOH job on saturday with this group and wanted to see if anyone has worked with them before... If so, any heads-up would be great! It's a simple vocal + DJ gig on a nice Martin system with an SD9 @ FOH, so I'll (hopefully) have all the tools I need. Thanks in advance!

    Hey club guys, lets see your offices (FOH)!

    Re: Hey club guys, lets see your offices (FOH)! While not a club install, this is kinda similar. I work as an Audio Contractor for the National Gallery of Art here in D.C. and this is one of the many systems in the facility which has many performance spaces (the Gallery spans 6 city...
