[QUOTE="Simon Coffin, post: 12724, member: 388"] Greetings, Provided audio for an outdoor wedding with fireworks this past Saturday. Beautiful setting on a farm, rolling hills in the background, a cluster of trees with a pond in the foreground. The uneven ground made leveling speaker tripods and equipment cases a challenge, but wooden blocks and landscaping spikes took care of that. The wedding itself went very well, 4 channels of wireless, a couple of beta57s on violins. Even recorded the whole thing. After the service I had to reset for the fireworks, brought out some subs, swapped to the main amp rack, struck the wireless racks and utility amp, was just about ready when the skies opened. And it poured down, for hours... Got everything back into the trailer while they pondered what to do with the fireworks. At 8:15pm they announced the fireworks were going off rain or shine.. So reset everything in the pouring rain, got a feed from the fireworks launch controller, played the audio track while the fireworks went off, very well done I might add, then carried everything back into safety in the trailer. Keeping things neat and tidy was no longer the goal, just get things in the trailer.... Got home and unloaded everything, wiped off the worst of the water and let it all sit in the garage to dry. Today's project is to clean off the cables and pack everything back into the shop. On the positive side, no harm done, everything works.
