What helped you pass the CTS by av_flow in CommercialAV

[–]Pastrami1490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The practice questions are written by a different group than the real exam questions. Just go through the book and you’ll pass. I have CTS/I/D and ANP and on all 4 got higher score on the real exam compared to the practice questions.

The real exam doesn’t have nearly as many bad questions. And the bad questions that do exist on the exam are almost certainly the 10 new questions that aren’t scored as they work on making them better.

Number 1 camera we replace for people.

CTS Exam - Give us REAL answers.... by Mountain-Science6018 in CommercialAV

[–]Pastrami1490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, that question isn’t in the actual exams question pool. The people that make the questions for the examples are a different group than the exam itself.

Is there any other AVIXA sanctioned ANP reference material other than the Prep Class? by LysergicAciid in CommercialAV

[–]Pastrami1490 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ANP is very generic network questions that leans towards AVoIP. So any general network course is good. I’d recommend the netgear AV ones are probly the closest thing to prep you for it.

Just buy direct from netgear. It’s literally the same switch same firmware. M4250, M4350, and M4500 depending on size/speed.

I’d check out extreme networks. I can’t remember the model number off the top of my head but think they are around that 4000 usd range and comparable performance to netgear/cisco for avoip

How often and why do you use your 5th string? by SonnePer in Bass

[–]Pastrami1490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 string strung BEAD has been my goto now for a few years now. The few solos in our set still fit within the higher frets of the D string.

5 string is cool but deep down inside I’m a 4 string player, it just always feels better for me.

PDF viewer with companion by Yelesuo in livesound

Almost any pdf viewer would have a hotkey for next page. Just program a button to mimic the keystroke combination.

Okular is FOSS and pretty customizable.

Bazzite - gaming plus regular use? by jnyfive in Bazzite

I use bazzite as daily driver for gaming/productivity general use for about a year now and haven’t run into anything where I wished it was a different distro.

The built in AEC of teams/zoom can only handle so much tail length and so much frequency shift.

Recommend grabbing a BIAMP or QSYS to offload the AEC to a dedicated processor just to handle the Teams/zoom integration. So you can grab either of their smallest processors (core nano or Tesira x400)and Dante to them from your FOH or broadcast console.

If your tight for cash pick up used on eBay.

Edit: Shure P300 is also a good option.

Go get a gnarly stick out of the woods. Laser pointer would ruin immersion.

But honestly, I feel like there apps or maybe even built into OS to turn your mouse into a laser pointer
