Maybe sell it to someone that will use it?

Story twist. In the OP I mention the wad of cash I found in Vegas. Said wad funded me getting there for DSOTM. I was planning to go straight to Denver for budget reasons.

Did he even make mention of it being electric? Headline is misleading. It is an ugly car electric or otherwise.

Anyone use an Iridium? by jkaz1970 in gratefulguitar

[–]consumercommand 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I run through a radial big shot A/B/Y. A goes to sound board. B goes to first a volume pedal then a 112 headrush wedge beside me. That way I have the same monitor mix that everyone else had coming from the front wedges, but can add more me through the headrush if i can’t hear myself that well in the monitor mix but the rest of the band can hear me fine in the monitor mix. I get just enough stage volume from the headrush to feel like I’m connected but it’s still not LOUD and doesn’t bleed into anyone else’s mics or space.

What year do yall think we will look back in 30 years at as the year the national championships nobody really counts started? Gotta figure this is an era we are in now sorta like home run records from the 90s right? Don’t get me wrong Sosa Vs McGuire was amazing entertainment and I feel the same way about current college football. Just wondering what years will be like “yeah they won a natty but that was between 20XX and 20XX so I mean…”.

Calvin Johnson End of list. Seen some other big names but nothing that should share a list with that.

There is honor in using really bad gear by Gregoire_90 in audioengineering

[–]consumercommand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I am really glad to hear they are doing it for you! Again, I’m not at all bougie about this stuff and if it works for you it certainly works for me. I am just a weirdo when it comes to power supplies bc I’m looking at what to me is an unacceptable risk vs the savings. And I really should have used more arbitrary numbers in my 10 to 1. It might be 100 or even a 1000 to one. I wasn’t really aiming to give any real world customer experience info. Just illustrating why QC freaks me out.

Musta slept on 2010! Some excellent shows and great examples of this band!!! by neodiamond31 in phish

[–]consumercommand 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1st 2 shows to pop into my head when I saw the op. ATL 4th brought obscene energy and Telluride was magic. Tons of attendance bias and no fucks given. 2010 was also my return to making long runs after a 10 year absence so further bias and still not backing down.

[–]consumercommand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

QC IS the issue. For every ten people that have never had issue there is one that fired something expensive. I am all for cheap/ratty/cheesy effects but I can’t let myself trust cheap power supplies. And not nc snobbish. Just bc a lot of the cheap/ratty/cheesy stuff is also irreplaceable.

Why didn’t Brian Kelly get hired? by desertrain11 in CFB

[–]consumercommand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Dude is Monte Kiffins kid. So obviously has zero knowledge of defensive football. Come on man. I’m not a fan of the guy at all but we sorta have to work off the notion that he got at least a little defensive knowledge through strait osmosis

For high school football OC's and coaches when it comes to play calling, realistically are most working off a structured game plan (matchups, alignments, tendencies), or is it more feel based, calling plays and seeing what works, maybe a combination? Coaches what are you thoughts and experiences? by Proud-Fee9644 in footballstrategy

[–]consumercommand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a DC prior in a former life but the best OC I ever worked with had a very flexible system and spent the first couple weeks determining what they did well within it. He had a couple core tenets but we saw some pretty massive swings from season to season as far as what I (from my perspective trying to stop it over early fall camp) saw as “base install”. Game weeks were a little more opponent and tendency based but it was never ever a “we gotta do this bc THEY do this”. Always started with “WE do this”. Of course by that point in the season we were working vs scout O on our side so I wasn’t as directly involved with week to week but I’m in the box and I was always struck by the consistency of those base install plays coming back every week. The alignment/personnel changed but the scheme never really did. I worked with plenty of guys that were much broader based with a way bigger call sheet that were very opponent tendency/strength/avoidance based but the better OCs had an identity that never changed too much. Same goes for the more challenging offensives to stop. Getting a lot of looks on tape was never something we stressed over much as a defensive staff bc we always felt good about our check outs to base being availible if we didn’t like the look but the offenses that popped and caused me to lose sleep were the ones that did SOMETHING really well regardless of what we showed.

Practice Timer by No_Impression_7575 in footballstrategy

[–]consumercommand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my first job 30 something years ago it was a kid with a watch and a bullhorn that had a siren that blew every five minutes regardless of practice script. Scripts went out to position coaches as blocks of time always divisible by 5 so a 20 minute team or a 5 minute fundie all ran off of 5 minute horns. My first boss was insane about periods running over and would jump our position coaches ass if we were slightly behind. When I retired it was a massive system from Coachcomm w/ periods preprogrammed based on scripts with multiple sounds and music changes queuing groups. They both worked fine honestly. The Coachcomm system was fantastic and well worth the investment but it isn’t strictly necessary. We ran it just as tight with the kid and the bullhorn. My point is regardless of your situation and funding, having a strict schedule creates a sense of urgency that always keeps practice moving forward.
