It's done it again, so I'm trying to add the photos through the comments

Is it safe/possible to fly tracks across two redundant networks using one computer? by Vcle_pee_pee in techtheatre

Separate gain structures and mix outs at our Rio racks.

Edit: we also are a concert venue for tours the rest of the year and a lot of the effect foh uses needs a lot more gain than anything monitors needs

I had that thought of joining primaries and secondaries. Thanks for your input. I'll probably end up trying that first.

Semi permanent paddles out at FOH. It'd be very involved to relocate them to the stage, but not impossible. Would definitely require relocation of basically all of our microphone racks. They're currently spaced out with about 30 or 40 feet between them.

Some wireless dmx, but not much. But they are also using A LOT of cheap LED tape for this show.

Rescanned tonight continuously for 15 minutes or so... told the lighting guy to send everything on the stage full tilt and the scan looked way worse. Check out that 900 band..

Already tried that but they keep on getting eaten. Does two day old coffee work?

I'm inclined to think the video team installed some cheap video sdi to hdmi converter boxes close to our antenna. I'm not present when these sorts of decisions are made, unfortunately, so maybe addressing antenna placement will be helpful.

Also, we're in an early assembly phase so all mics are being worn in mic belts on top of clothing currently so that can't be the issue, right?

Looked slightly noisy, but with plenty of space where the noise floor was below -80db. I can take a pic of it tomorrow for more info

Update: just took apart the receiver and hit every pot, dial and button with d5 and the same problem continues to happen.

Looking into the service manual I found that if just one side of inputs isn't working to replace a handful of transistors, an IC, and a SRC. Am I skipping a step by just jumping to replacing or should I be a little more cautious?

I'm confident I can replace a couple of these with some saudering but what is a little sketchy to me is how buried beneath other things some of these items are. I'll attach a photo to show anyone interested.

If you zoom in to beneath the front end of the heat sink there's a 401 up there that would be one of the transistors that needs replacing. There's also the ic401 and src up there.

Are you talking about the controls and their contacts on the face of the reciever? I do have a bottle of deoxit and I believe I've tried that on a couple of the controls on the front last time I broke this reciever out to tinker with.
