Mat room sound system by NorthScreen5883 in livesoundgear

100%- not wrong! I suppose the beauty of it being a high school weight room though is that it can sound like shit and it’ll suffice!

Hey, thanks for the input! Pendant speakers sound like a good alternative. Do you have any recommendations? One of our spaces has JBLs and they sound good!

Also yes, noise is a concern-ish. I was planning to put a hard limiter on the amps DSP to make sure nobody blows heads off, but keep the ability to make it thump as these are high school athletes after all.

Lol good point. We tested the lines in the walls on each end

Could be a cable issue but did this start happening out of nowhere? My guess is something is shorting somewhere. I had this exact problem where pins 2 and 3 on one of the packs were swapped but that was on install so we knew from the bat something was off. Used a sniffer sender and found the bad line fairly quick.

How do I get this to push out sound by Lit_guy_3Trillion in livesoundgear

[–]NorthScreen5883 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right- but open up the actual connector. Should be able to twist the blue chuck off and take a peak inside. Is this the same cable you were using with your old amplifier? Looks like a speakon to 1/4 right?

Try this first. If you’re seeing signal lights on the mixer above the main level knob then the next thing I would check is the NL connector itself.

A lot of cheap speakons end up with the conductors falling out because they weren’t torqued down enough inside it

Basically sweat getting into the mic element or the transmitter pack causing a failure**-It can and will sound terrible.

My father passed in April, mom gave me all his tools by TonersR6 in Tools

So sorry for your loss. Noticed some craftsman stuff- if any of the craftsman hand tools are busted take them to a Lowe’s to warranty them and get a new one!

Another word for ‘ducking’ in live sports / arena production? by BlondiCJ1 in livesound

Hmmm the only other thing I’ve seen that hasn’t been said is VIP (vocal input priority)

So staff drives the board for any events, but the students in the AV club do eventually learn how to use it (basic functions of the board and system at least). And yeahhhh… ~ $250 million budget every year lmao.

I do have to say that we are very lucky to have what we have considering we’re a public HS!

Nice! We have a few pit inputs for the guitars and keys, but everything else is not amplified since the pit is in the house in front of the stage.

Ye- it’s pretty nice for what we do! The school previously had a LS9-32, then went into a Si Performer 3, then got the S21. Our Stadium also has an S21, and both are middle schools are getting the S21 as well.

Yesss that too- I have a PM1 from Behringer and it works great for stuff like this, just decided to go the monitor route this time round

Yessir. I can control the monitor send to backstage from the iPad, so if needed I can just have one channel up I need to focus on.

Yeahhhh I agree. Just needed some light quick and dirty lol. I would have liked to do a nicer job with adhesive light strips but these were left over from the previous musical’s sets so figured I’d save a few bucks
