[QUOTE="Chris Nixon, post: 8171, member: 1947"] Hi, I'm going to be doing a theatre show that will probably have less mics than actors needing them. Mics, or maybe just transmitters, will be moved from one performer to another. I'm not particularly experienced with theatre so I'm planning to set up the console with a channel for each cast member and patch the receiver they will be using to their channel, and apply digital trim per channel. Is this the normal / best way to do it? I could do one channel for each receiver and scene recall channel settings but option one seems much simpler if the channel count allows for it. Console will most likely be an iLive. I don't know what the wireless system is either, but is it standard procedure to change transmitter gains between actors or go for a compromise between the two? Setting and forgetting will mean the gain won't be changed to the wrong value during a mic swap, but will be less than ideal gain structure on two performers. Any tips? Thanks, Chris [/QUOTE]
