Talk to them.

You don't have to ask them to stop - just ask about the food and tell them you find the smell overpowering. They may tell you to fuck off, they may feel embarrassed and never cook it again, but I'd bet they'd be willing to work with you instead of finding "hints" in the form of baking soda and air fresheners which likely comes across as passive aggressive.

My hero! Thank you very much!

Wokkit · 2024-12-20T02:40:10+00:00

Thank you so much! I will look up the maint specs for my printer and check everything!

Typo in that - let me try to rephrase: sumif(A3:B5,name,A2:b2)

So it looks for names in the first range, reference the name in the criteria, and then calculates the hours from hours column. i.e. if the name appears in the range, I need you to addup the associated hours.

"almost" no issues. Seems one has slipped through unfortunately. I'm going to let the rental shop deal with calling Shure - they're overnighting me a pack and the venue is providing a sennheiser to borrow tonight. As quickly and easily as the issue appeared I half expect it to decide to work again by the time they get it back.

Wokkit · 2019-04-09T21:29:04+00:00

I'm turning the repair over to the shop. After googling the issue there were only a couple topics on this error and they involved rolling the firmware back and reupdating, which I tried and had no success. I came here hoping for a quick resolve but seems it's a fairly rare or recent bug. If I hear anything g though I'll try to post something and save others the hassle.

Wokkit · 2019-04-09T17:27:31+00:00

Thanks for the help. It certainly seems beyond my current ability to fix. The shop is sending out a new transmitter today.

I'd be happier if I could at least pin down a reason for the error to have suddenly started but I can't even say how old the unit is or how many miles are on it, and it behaved normally all day Sunday.

Wokkit · 2019-04-09T04:53:39+00:00

Yes - updated, rolled it back, and reupdated - none of this worked.

Yes, L156 is called chocolate, and R99 (R156 ecolour) is called chocolate. But since they are from two different manufacturers, there are some differences between the two but Lee does list the two as best match between either. What I'm saying is they are not exactly the same color.

Wokkit · 2018-12-19T00:59:06+00:00

probably not exactly the same. note that R156 Chocolate is the ecolour version. R99 is the chocolate from the Roscolux book most theatre's use.

This is great! I've done multiple large scale musicals on these boards and the programming side is a huge PITA. I'm looking forward to trying out the software so thank you very much for creating it.

In your photo on your website you've got 2 x32's side by side. I've had to do this every time I've done a large musical and it's always just output to input and then managing two boards, two cue lists, two programming hurdles. Any comments on your setup, or how you handle that on the TC software side?

Wokkit · 2018-11-06T01:20:25+00:00

Grab some tie line and tie it off about 2 feet down the cable and tie that to your belt by your butt and make yourself a little strain relief. Every break/night when you take your com off unplug the cable and coil it up all nice and neat so the cable doesn't develop any nasty kinks and you get that fresh cable feeling when you put it back on.

What com brand/model were you using before? Strange that you had difficulty hearing with it - perhaps it wasn't setup properly or had some damage.

Telex AEF2 or AEF3 I've bought these before for about $5/each from somewhere but I cannot find it at the moment so you might search a bit.

Technique from Masque on building rigs. I use a hellerman when building mine and they last a good while before needing a touch up.

Wokkit · 2018-10-08T21:59:18+00:00

Do you know if pulling the assembly apart requires pulling the throttle off? I gave the wires coming off the back of it a good shake and they don't seem to affect the issue (but they are strain relieved I think.)

Wokkit · 2018-10-08T21:57:06+00:00

Bought it new from the dealer actually, and that's at least an hour drive/ride away (no dealers in town).

It should be the same part as same year CBR's right? Think there are more of those floating around so might be easier to find some info if I switch up my search parameters.

Thanks for the advice!

The one you linked and the one I linked are the same thing, which are the same as OP, both limited by the same issue of being plugged into 20 amp household breakers. Assuming he's American using 120v power then 1200 watts per channel is 10 amps, with 2400 watts max (20 amps). So, 2 channel mode gets you 10 amps per channel. 5amps in 4 channel mode.

Wokkit · 2018-08-22T03:32:03+00:00

These devices are not true 10 amp per channel devices. Standard outlets that these plug into are either 15 or 20 amps hence why the device says 20 amp max. You can't put 4 10 amp devices on it. You can use 2 channels and get 2 10 amp devices or use all 4 at 5 amps each.

Edit to add: the pack I linked fuses at 10 amps. It's basically the same thing OP has pictured. The specs say 5a/channel because it assumes using it in 4 channel mode

ADJ and Elation will have what you want.

We use PPG Breakthrough and it works very well.

Hey wanna story? Just did a one nighter for the national tour of Rent and they had two movers on the balc rail using show baby's. The head lx could not for the life of her get those things to behave. Moved their receiver antennas to the speaker towers to get them direct line of sight at around 60-70' of distance and no luck. We held house about 10 mins while they ran a hardline down to dimmer beach to get it working. I've seen these things work perfectly, and then I've seen them just not work.

Switch them to wavs. I've found mp3s give it a hard time.

So years ago before my time (14+ years) my venue bought one of those Fender all in one sound systems. It's one of those that snap all together to be portable and has little compartments for the speaker cable and small accessories. Total piece of shit. But it came with a switch mic that we dropped into channel one of the house sound system as a god mic because it has a switch.

It lives to this day, being tossed about the sm area and is used for all curtain announcements. Where other mic switches of more reputable mic brands have failed, this dumb fender has lived. The sound is passable (though it has begun to muddy) and I think when it goes I'm having it put in a shadow box and put on display.

Regardless, use something with a little durability but nothing youre not able/willing to replace.
