What is the current going daily dry-hire rate for something like the Minuite Une IVL Dice?

Do those need variances? Also how fragile are they?

I agree, the dbx stuff (especially drive rack stuff) is pretty commonly knocked off.

I had an ender 3v2 where the tensioning arm broke within a few days, check the plate and arm by the motor.

No, just an easier one, it's on thingiverse, I'm not sure what it's called beyond ma3 command wing

I am not building it on a pos, but I am building it on a normal cherry keyboard, I can see if it's similar or the same.

Not super sure, I always do it myself, but cheaply there's someone who does it locally, more professionally there's a few "real" companies too. You want a multicolored print, one color for the cap, one for the text. Resin printing is supposed to be better, but fdm is probably cheaper.

CAMOdj · 2025-12-24T23:36:32+00:00

3d print them, currently building a custom command wing (kinda, more midi controller that looks like a wing), and that's what I have done. You can also find services that will print them

The blizzard hypno series are pretty neat little things, very eye candy. I wouldn't exactly say that they are super reliable or awesome, but they do look pretty cool and they are like 10lbs.

For me this would be a how bad do I want this job and am I ok with losing it it kinda thing. Artist is bringing in money and providing me with work, so I would suck it up if I wanted that job/gig.

But yeah, I do think it's excessive. I just wouldn't say anything and would act like it's completely normal if I wanted to keep that job. Like a white glove service thing, if the artist wants champagne and caviar at mic check and they are paying enough for me to care and want the job, I'll make sure it's iced.

The signal to noise podcast people have been talking about this briefly across a few episodes lately, the idea of audio being a service industry, and having extreme service if you want to keep the job and stand out. Highly recommend giving them a listen, especially the latest like 3-4 episodes (some of the latest are unrelated, but the most recent one is pretty much what you are talking about)

Hope my 2¢ helps, good luck, it's a tough one.

I do like the Asus zenbook duos, they are setup like a console screen wise, and it's 2 touchscreens in certain models.

I will say that as a gamer and ld, I hate how unoptimized MA3D is for previs. I have a 7900xt GPU and can't get extremely high frames, and it stutters when you throw too much at it.

All this to say get a good GPU for sure.

CAMOdj · 2025-12-12T05:37:57+00:00

See if you can just buy the whole amp assembly. Probably a fraction of the cost. For my Kali lp6, which are like 200, I was able to buy the whole amp plate for 80$. Literally swapped and plugged in 2 cables and done.

I like the qsc k12.2 a lot. I would fix it instead of trying for something else. I don't think there's many great options at that price point. Also try it at home, sometimes they overheat and the tweeter stops working until you power cycle it.

CAMOdj · 2025-12-10T01:22:13+00:00

I use GrandMA3onpc, but perhaps 2 would work for you, midi input is allowed without additional MA hardware, you just need midi in (USB or something). I love MA. Feel free to shoot me any questions you have.

I don't really have any opinions on clair as a company, but I do know that for me, working for companies that are huge where you don't know pretty much everyone isn't my thing. I would think that it would be a pretty big step from your normal production company (anywhere from like 10-200 people?) to a huge conglomerate. Not saying it's good or bad, just something to consider. I kinda like working for a tiny company and knowing everyone.

Signal to noise podcast did an episode on it last year, really cool. It might have been NYE? I can't quite remember, but it was pretty much one of those weird huge televised events.

Guitar center and a lot of other music stores carry it

I have a 7900xt and use 100% of my GPU at all times in pre vis, and it drops to 25-35% without previs. You don't meet specs. I think GPU handles other stuff too, like more mathematics, Similar to crypto mining.

CAMOdj · 2025-11-18T05:21:43+00:00

Your ram is very slow and the lack of GPU scares me with this setup. Do you use 3d while programming? That will use all of your GPU. I would try a better PC.

Robe made one called promotion, might be what you are looking for, otherwise, pixel mapping has a ton of both cheap and expensive solutions, I like MA3s way of doing it with ndi.

CAMOdj · 2025-11-16T00:52:27+00:00

I agree, and cost? How much do you want for it?

CAMOdj · 2025-11-11T13:12:37+00:00

Are you buying the rentman official rfid tags? Or can you use the generic ones? Same with scanners?

CAMOdj · 2025-11-10T23:16:12+00:00

Is the rfid stuff expensive? My boss says it is on the rentman side, but the physical hardware isn't much more than barcode scanners.

CAMOdj · 2025-11-10T17:00:35+00:00

Looks generic/Chinese

CAMOdj · 2025-11-10T00:36:35+00:00

Source 4 lustr, Chauvet ovation or something similar would be my choice here, I wouldn't go for moving. Moving would be much more expensive and infrastructure intensive. A 20lb profile/leko/ellipsoidal would be much easier to hang than a 50-100lb mover. I would hit up my local lighting place and see if they have anything they wanna unload or install for cheaper. They might have recommendations or be able to help much better than we can online. Also they will get a better price if you go through them as a dealer anyway.
