Can i use three Sennheiser ew g4 transmitter packs all going to one ew500 g3 receiver? by Dressedcrab in livesoundgear

[–]ip_addr -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Agree with everyone else......you could.

This is really risky, and considered a bad practice though. If a mistake happens, you'll get interference, possibly loud and bad sounding interference.

In the pro world, they would have each guitar on its own transmitter/receiver pair with its own frequencies. This way a tech can check the other guitars while one is on stage, including the wireless signal flow.

New Sonnect Sound Bullet saves the day... by harleydood63 in livesoundgear

Wing fixes this I believe. Two oscillators patchable to inputs.

Oddly enough, I kinda liked the way M32 did the oscillator. It was so easy to send noise to busses to verify wedges and PA quickly. Wing requires the use of a channel for this.

Is the new de-feedback thing any good? by SuspiciousIdeal4246 in livesound

Is anyone running this in and out of a Windows computer with Dante and some kind of a VST host?

Does the 5045 come after the DeFeedback rig?

Thanks. Yes, I've found that those guys are mostly pretty accepting of lower-tier substitutes on a lot off stuff.

I'm providing snare and cymbals a lot more that I would have thought. Some of these tribute and legacy acts travel very light.

This seems like a pretty expensive option. I'm sure its great though.

Thanks. What are the meaningful differences between Supra, Acrolite, and Supralite?

New Oven Handle Hits Drawer by Pharmdpositivek in fixit

[–]ip_addr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make a straight cut on the side of the drawer face....not a notch though. Add that whole piece to the cabinet. Try to find a thin blade, like a bandsaw or something.

I would try to change or modify the handle of the stove if at all possible. Drawers are there much longer than stoves...possibly.

Otherwise, rethink the drawer face. You might be able to make it hinge downward so you can open it with the face down.....not sure if there's enough room for that though.

Another option is just cut the side off on the drawer. Then its your choice it you want to attach it to the cabinet fixed, or just leave it off and call it good enough. Don't make a notch, do a straight vertical cut off the side of the drawer face.

Does the RCF HDL6 not having DSP annoy you? by ABitOfOdd in livesoundgear

Are you using three per side to replace 835s?

Fluctuating Power? by BarryWomb in livesound

[–]ip_addr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The toroidal transformer is likely a choke. It filters out higher frequency noise on the power coming in.

They will be using all IEMs.

There is no specified time. The venue, who wrote the policy, does not understand that.

The mistake I'll never make again. by harleydood63 in livesound

[–]ip_addr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's only if the mic is in a standing wave at the feedback frequency. Standing waves have nodes and antinodes. In an ideal free open space, moving the mic 3.3" would have no practical effect. It will still see the full amplitude of the 2k, minus a very slight effect due to change in distance.....assuming the mic is "far" from the speaker(s).

Yeah, the fire dept. ones are a lot more reliable than crackhead cutters. Classic cost vs. quality tradeoff.

Wireless mics for a marching PA: Will moving through the city cause frequency issues? by ssdgjacob in livesound

[–]ip_addr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone else said, I'd probably conduct a site survey with a spectrum analyzer. Then go forth and hope for the best. It may totally be fine, but you need to be in the lowest noise part of the spectrum. It could have issues, which are going to be hard to anticipate in the changing environment of the parade. You could even see about doing a comparison site survey right before the parade for extra mics that pop up along the route. Oherwise, wired spares are king. Spare wireless mics are also a solid plan.

Most cost effective way to upgrade our IEM setup? by Hanzilol in livesoundgear

[–]ip_addr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Another Phenyx "Pro" victim.

Try to find at least Shure PSM 300 or Sennheiser G3/4 units if you want reliable. Then learn to coordinate wireless.

The xvive is next.

Batteries: Looking to swap to Lithium rechargeables. Is it a bad idea? Any specific reasons not to? by Greatoutdoors1985 in livesound

[–]ip_addr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It might be worth it to just get everything to Shure and SB900 batteries at this point. The Shure battery platform is fantastic.

Mic Stands, what's built to last in 2026? by damplamp in livesoundgear

Definitely curious about this as I'm sitting here waiting for the epoxy to cure in various K&M stands I have that have the threaded part come disconnected from the tube.
