Crackling burst with X32/S16
Hello
Summer holiday has ended... I had today first gig in over a month. The truck has been used for other things meanwhile, so I had to go to warehouse and pack pa in.
SO !!
Of course I forgot something - I forgot UPS !!!
So there was twice horrible crackling for about half a second - one in the middle of a set of a band and second between two bands...
I got to think, if there is a way of controlled power-interruption with time adjustment. We know the rule is , that if UPS is faster than 20ms, we oughta be safe. But we do not know, if 21ms brake absolutely reboots the desk. So there might be "gray area" between safe and dead... "The Triangle Of Crackling"
I have no means of arranging this kind of test, but I urge Behringer or some of you splendid persons to do so, if you have the time...
The gig goes on tomorrow and on saturday, but thankfully I am at home overnight and will take UPS with me tomorrow.
There was no light flickering etc to be noticed, when it happened - I thought it was something on stage - instrument cable or so, but then it came again after the band had disconnected their stuff, and none of my stuff was being touched.
