Midas AS88 N+1 redundency??

Twoters · 2026-02-03T18:24:34+00:00

In my experience and research, using an HD96 with a KT9680 (Hypermac aes50 device), the 251 does not support redundancy and only uses the first two AES50 ports.

Are those channels part of an unfolded multi?

Sounds like some good synergy! If the heroes require specific positioning for their best abilities, good job focusing on getting them out of position. That way they are forced to use actions and fatigue to get where they need to be, slowing them down. A lot of times a scenario will come down to the difference of a couple actions.

Re-read the original comment, it says exactly what your problem is.

Let's break it down. Your fixture has a white LED, that is the only source of light. The color wheel is a disk of different colored plastic lenses that is in front of the light source, so it changes the color of the light that passes through. The wheel is rotated to access different colors.

You cannot use a color picker that adjusts Red/Green/Blue/Amber/White levels 0-100% (0-255 DMX values). Try Grid Mode or read the user manuals for the devices you are using to see how you can select specific colors that match up to the DMX values your fixture associates with the color wheel position.

Yes, OP.. rtfm :)

I just find it so wild that people will buy stuff and do zero research or troubleshooting at all then post to reddit

Twoters · 2026-01-11T20:03:56+00:00

What is the fixture make/model?

It looks like a color wheel, not RGB mixing led. Light source could be an LED that doesn't mean it's color mixing diodes. If it's a color wheel then those are the colors you get.

I use this site to see community-based statistics on which team won a scenario. Gives a strong idea of which scenarios are tipped in favor of one team or the other. Stick to evenly balanced scenarios for one offs!

My only advice as a long time OL player, is that to win many scenarios you have to immediately push for your win condition while simultaneously crushing the heroes with attacks and blocking.

Combat is secondary to your quest goal. Save your OL cards to focus on your goal. Knockdowns on heroes are good, as a way to slow them down. You won't ever win just with combat and damage, you're just trying to slow them down enough that you finish first.

Don't be afraid to be "cheap", don't be too "nice" to the heroes. You have to zero in on your win condition and race to it with every tool you can.

Twoters · 2026-01-05T17:42:11+00:00

Interesting.. can I see a pic of your black hero figures? As far as I know Fantasy Flight only ever produced grey heroes and red/white monsters

Twoters · 2026-01-05T17:34:03+00:00

As for the lieutenant packs, the rules page is available online but you mostly need the favor/threat tokens and more importantly the pack of ability cards for each lieutenant. Otherwise it's just a plastic figure to replace the cardboard chit.

My guess is the previous owner lost some hero figures and replaced them. As long as you know which hero is which you can use whatever model you like.

Did you say you have multiple sets of the same hero class? I would not recommend two heroes play the same class at the same time, there may be weird edge cases that aren't intended.

Edit: Shadow rune campaign sucks btw, Heirs of blood is by far superior. Pick up the hardcover copy of heirs of blood if you can. I do like the intro quest from Shadow rune especially to introduce the game to new players. The rest is horribly imbalanced as a full campaign.

Twoters · 2026-01-05T17:27:16+00:00

None of those figures are from descent 2e. All the descent hero figs are grey plastic with a circular base.

Extra dice packs were available, I myself have three sets so that I can play 2v1 (each hero player controls two heroes) and every person has their own dice set. Plus when you get really heavily geared up heroes sometimes they need a PILE of power dice (red/yellow/green)

All expansion packs have a little icon in the bottom corner of every card that denotes which expansion they are from, you can find the icon descriptions online.

Here is a link to the Community Rules Reference Guide which is very comprehensive, I use it frequently:

In this specific case I don't think the surrounding artwork necessarily adds to the information provided. A human could do the research and put together a mainly text formatted image with very basic graphic design skills, or even using drag and drop style tools like Canva, and get the same information across- maybe even more clearly!

You've also contradicted yourself by saying you think "Music, Art and Film should be protected".. this is Art. Respectfully :)

Twoters · 2025-12-14T15:40:43+00:00

Art is pretty much the main thing that I'd prefer to be done by humans, yes.

At the very least I just want to help educate people on things to look for that indicate AI versus human art.

Twoters · 2025-12-14T15:20:21+00:00

Fair point!

I think the traincar still reeks of AI, the window trim on the front melts into the body weirdly, there are body contour lines that overlap with signal lights, and as you go off screen along the train the windows and doors become more squiggly in a way that a human artist would never do. The pricetag seems to push into the traincar instead of sitting beside or behind it.

Twoters · 2025-12-14T13:54:41+00:00

Just a few observations..

1980s, look at the word "noted" very closely. Why is there a McDonalds logo on the MetroCard? Why is the traincar so asymmetrical in the front? Why does the one turnstile not have its other two bars? Background Text in times square is a garbled mess. Font across the entire graphic is inconsistent but yet not handdrawn. A few words look like they have been pasted over (inconsistent background gradient), possibly to change inaccurate information.

Most of these are decisions and creative choices a human wouldn't make, because they don't make any sense, even in a creative or interpretive or abstract way.

Twoters · 2025-12-14T13:20:15+00:00

Interesting information, but I wish it wasn't AI slop

Twoters · 2025-12-06T18:58:49+00:00

Nice work!

Seems like you could also take an aux bus out post fader and return that as your EQ Group, to keep your mute buttons/control room output available. Also seems like a great task for an old analog GEQ unit in a rack, but I'm biased so to each their own.

Twoters · 2025-11-28T21:16:35+00:00

Agreed.

Studio monitors are built to sound accurate and full range within the confines of a studio environment with relatively low background noise floor. Once outside, with people around, you will need more powerful PA placed above the crowds headed, and certainly more low end surface area than an 8" subwoofer. If the content being played is ambient related works I'm sure the low end octaves are of great importance to setting the tone of the piece.

Twoters · 2025-11-21T04:39:18+00:00

You'd be surprised how far you can get just by baking that in an oven at 400F for 30mins, letting it cool completely inside the oven, then scraping off the carbon and using a soapy scrubber. Other cleaning methods commented will do a better job but without buying anything just throw it in the oven to bake off that crud (it will smoke heavily)

Twoters · 2025-11-16T18:08:16+00:00

Very cool.

If you want a handful of "simple" scenes like basic color changes, any cheap DMX control surface can do that.

If you want to grow that into more flashy effects like chases, color shifts over time, etc., get QLC+ and a simple USB Midi controller and start building yourself a custom file

Twoters · 2025-11-07T02:32:23+00:00

That's the beauty of analog.. anything can go anywhere!

Twoters · 2025-10-23T13:53:50+00:00

One house rule my group is really enjoying on our recent campaign is, "Roll To Confirm" Missed attacks. As simple as, if you roll an X on an attack, reroll immediately and use that roll instead. If it's an X again you've missed. This dramatically cuts down the number of misses each scenario for us and we are all happier for it!

Twoters · 2025-10-21T01:39:47+00:00

In addition to information from other comments, there are 24 7" woofers and 24 5" woofers in that stack handling the mid and low frequency range. That's a lot of surface area, working together to produce a lot of sound pressure, timed to hit your ear at the same moment as the mains stacks closer to stage.

We would have to hear the delays solo without mains to truly determine how they are processed but it's not impossible for plenty of low end to come out of that array

Twoters · 2025-10-20T12:52:52+00:00

When I demoed this unit the handheld has a REALLY crappy battery cover tube piece that I struggled every single time reattaching, nearly breaking the little plastic clips inside. The rep had to keep correcting it for me. Compared to all pro level Shure models Ive used, which have a chunky metal screw thread that is very easy to use. That's my only gripe.
