[QUOTE="Dan Mortensen, post: 82984, member: 2826"] Re: Monitor out noise I had something similar happen during my festival two weeks ago, which I'm still warming up to write fully about. It occurred when I was adjusting the snake position on the main stage. The snake was a couple of the Belden Dura Tough (Data Tough?) cables that someone here suggested [url=http://www.markertek.com/Cables/Computer-Data-Cables/CAT-5-Cables/TecNec/CAT5XTRM-10.xhtml]TecNec Neutrik Ethercon / Belden Data Tuff CAT5e Cable Assemblies by TecNec CAT-5 Cables at Markertek.com[/url] along with power cable and some analog 4 pair. The mess* was running under some tables that had legs that looked like ] laying on its side, making a low space below the crossbar. The cable mess was kind of coiled but not kinked, and I pulled on it to pull it through the space under the leg assembly to straighten it out. The PA which was on, emitted a burst of pink noise sounding stuff, and stopped when I stopped pulling. I pulled again, and it did it again. My FOH engineer, who is one of the most experienced PA techs in the NW if not the world, and I looked at each other, and he was as baffled as I. He said maybe the dynamic kinking of the cable was enough to interrupt the sync? But neither of us had a better explanation, and the cable had tested out OK earlier with a Greenlee tester. I bought this cable because it purports to be one of the toughest CAT 5 cables available. The cable assembly/mess was where it needed to be by that time, and we left it alone, and it performed perfectly for the rest of the 5 days with no more bursts of anything. Was anything similar happening when your burst occurred? Maybe there is something in your cable which is accomplishing the same thing? And was your wireless receiver input muted on your console for sure when your noise happened, and not just the transmitter turned off? Good luck. *Not really a mess. [/QUOTE]
