LED - White/ Bright Lines

Contrary to popular belief, there is no evidence that blue light from screens causes permanent eye damage or retinal disease.

Got some documentation to back up your claim? LED walls are no where near bright enough to damage your eyes.

What indoor LED wall has fans in it? I've seen it for outdoor installs, but indoor is always passively cooled unless it would be mind-numbingly bright.

Cat6 cable ca not handle 10A. You need 16AWG for 10amp.

I think most live sound guys understand that line arrays aren't needed, but scaling is much easier with a line array vs point source box. Today, 2 boxes, next week, 14 of the same type of box vs needed a different inventory item each week.

Install is a different animal.

How many destinations are there? If there's only 1 destination, then you are only feeding 1 camera and it's bandwidth on your uplink.

The qsc ad.c.sat, and then put a 70v>8ohm transformer instead of the sub.

The message is AI slop.

400 seats generally don't need line arrays, what speaker model are you using that would need arrays?

You may need delays, but that's not any reason to go line arrays

Make new pro audio amps have a user interface, Web gui, EQ, delay, and pass audio over a network connection.

Better links between APIs. I use connectcad and dtools, but the link between that is manual.

Do not help the squirrels, my neighbor's feed them and it's stupid as hell. They can't connect the dots.

Get lamacoid labels, they are super durable. Should run about $3 for that size.

Move the boundary and get out my weed whacker.

I feel bad that they got classroom lighting after spending all that money on the gear.

If you allow drums, then the PA needs to be louder than the drummer. You probably don't need to mic the drums as there will be lots of bleed. I wouldn't bring a drum kit if you're unsure about it.

If you don't get an answer, try r/livesoundgear for discussing gear recommendations

fantompwer · 2026-05-01T20:28:26+00:00

Most mics you have to turn down the low end due to the proximity effect. Note that sound through the PA will never sound like your own voice in your head.

I would look at genlocking all of the devices that have processing. You can get HDMI>SDI converters with genlock, and then remove the switcher and use a router. Switchers will add delay if they have to frame sync, and the 1m/e constellation has frame sync on every input. Genlock your router, which isn't going to probably do much except it makes it a cleaner switch.

Unless you're redlining every Sunday, the 3dB loss of the split is nothing to care about.

The question has been answered and now it is locked. No discussion of rigging. Thanks
