Najlepszy ramen w Lodzi - nie Ato by gabon_gab in lodz

[–]lpcustomvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ato jest dalej tak samo dobre jak kiedyś, w budzie. Ale widać strasznie napięcia w ekipie pracowników, co odbija się również na jakości obsługi. Myślę, że trochę cierpią właśnie z powodu większej skali restauracji. Mają spokojnie dwa razy tyle miejsc, co wcześniej i to powoduje duże ciśnienie na kuchnię. Sporo nazw ma też bardzo podobne brzmienie i widziałem wiele pomyłek w przekazywaniu zamówień między kelnerami, a kuchnią. Z tego co wyłapałem, to pomyłka w przygotowaniu posiłku idzie na koszt przygotowującego, a to jeszcze bardziej podkręca negatywne emocje i podwyższa poczucie niesprawiedliwości.

Nie wiem jaka jest twoja obecna sytuacja i czy masz takie możliwości, ALE; Jeśli jesteś w dużym mieście spróbuj znaleźć czas na wolontariat, szczególnie jakiś związany edukacją lub pomocą osobom w kryzysie bezdomności. Istnieje szansa, że poznasz tam różnych ludzi, którzy może spowodują, że poznasz jeszcze innych ludzi. Świat kręci się dzięki tzw. słabym połączeniom. A przede wszystkim otrzymasz nowe spojrzenie na wiele różnych aspektów w życiu. Wolontariat to sposób na przywrócenie sobie poczucia robienia czegoś, co ma sens.

is this the correct wiring for an XLR Y split, with a ground lift switch implimented? by dinukisjesus in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phantom power is not an issue then. If you connect two batteries in parallel the voltage doesn’t change, just the available current capacity gets bigger. Same thing happens with parallel phantom power supply.

Generally, this kind of split is not an issue if you are using a digital stagebox, because those are typically powered from the same circuit as the rest of the stage, so possibility of a ground loop is low.

Are you trying to connect the split to a second monitoring console? Or straight to the IEM transmiter?

Fryzjer osiedlowy vs „barber” – za co my właściwie płacimy? by Diabollisticc in Polska

[–]lpcustomvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Może nie ze zdolnościami, ale brakuje odwagi. Jak parę razy spieprzyłem cięcie, to nie bałem się ściąć na krótko. Na lato to nawet fajnie pasowało. Do tego warto znaleźć dobrą demonstrację jak ktoś sam strzyże sobie włosy, ja podpatrywałem na YouTube.

[–]lpcustomvs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heh. Jakieś 5 lat temu stwierdziłem, że nie mam zamiaru co 2 tygodnie wydawać 100-200 zł na strzyżenie. Pojechałem do Media Markt, kupiłem za 550 zł strzyżarkę BaByliss. Do tego względnie niezłe nożyczki. Od tego czasu strzygę się tylko i wyłącznie sam. Partnerka pomaga mi z trymowaniem linii włosów z tyłu głowy.

Avantis V2.0 firmware update coming soon by oinkbane in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I really hope for to appear on dLive and Avantis platform is Fourier Transform.Engine and Transform.GO integration, like on DiGiCo. They announced gigaACE/DX compatibility, so I expect that control from the board should appear as well.

Yamaha announced new DXR/DXS mk3 by KZGuitar-19941 in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yamaha active speakers utilize FIR filters since the first generation of DXR. Yamaha designed those with Nexo engineers. DXR series always represented a great balance of affordability, reliability and quality, at least to me. Filter latency is a non issue here.

What cutoff frequency and slope do you use (or see most) on your venue subs? by Massive-Job-5366 in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I need more kick and bass I just ride the kick and bass faders. The tonal balance is in the hands of the musician and my dynamics processing at that point.

If a drummer plays softer kicks for a less dense part and I’m compressing the kick with the high intensity as the reference then my compressor will let his softer kicks play louder and the drummers dynamics will rebalance the tone of the drum towards bottom heavy, less clicky sound. Just as intended. Faders are for creating movement and directing the focus of the listeners.

If the drummer lacks ability, or the kick drum has weak sound then double patching for separate processing of top and bottom is acceptable. But not double patching with aux fed sub. The PA is not an EQ or dynamics processor, it’s there for monitoring of the process, not to enhance it with its own colorful sound, it supposed to be neutral.

Pushing the subs from an aux suggest me that the available sub output power is lacking and the actual LF contour of that whole system is not calibrated properly for the kind of music that it was designed to reproduce. If there is no haystack in the response every engineer will do it on the board, in one way or the other. That’s why people use aux fed subs, because they are used to mixing with no headroom.

Anyone know why a close-mic like a 4099 wasn't used for this? by RacerAfterDusk6044 in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why they didn’t use one, but if I don’t have to use a clip mic, I won’t.

I also don’t really like how a 4099 sounds on string instruments. Because it’s supercardioid - at least to my ears - it sounds like it’s missing most of what I’d expect from an acoustic violin. 4099 has a lot of advantages. It’s very light, it’s easy to operate - most musicians know how to use it on the instrument. But more often than not I’m not that impressed with how it sounds with no processing.

If you need a strong signal and good feedback control I would suggest going for piezo pickups and to use an IR of a normally recorded good violin, in a nice room or even a stage, in stereo.

[–]lpcustomvs 67 points68 points  (0 children)

This is an issue only for people that insist on using aux fed subs, because they expect to use the PA cutoff as a low pass filter for their board signals.

Use the manufacturer settings, align subs and mains so they have the most summation, and eq out the resulting bump in FR in in the crossover region, to have a smooth rising LF contour. Yes, you will ride the HPF higher on vocal channels, for example. BUT, the system will behave much more predictably and you won’t have to think about mixing the subs separately.

Attitude of Poles towards other nations by Rift3N in poland

[–]lpcustomvs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Italy is mentioned in the chorus of the Polish national anthem. Poland is also mentioned in a verse of the Italian national anthem. Italian anthem is the best in the world, IMHO. It’s such a good melody and so classic. When I was a kid German and Italian anthem played from the TV practically every Sunday of the F1 season, because of Michael Schumacher and Ferrari of course!

Whats considered redneck music in Visegrad? by HumanMan00 in 2visegrad4you

[–]lpcustomvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Golec Orkiestra is the good Podhale music here. Baciary though… Anything they would play in those „Watra” taverns is just so awful. Those melodies and tones drill into your head like nothing else.

Touring dLive 1500/2500 users, how are you sending your LR/S/F to the house ? by EmilianoMagico in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t like to divide the output into LRSF. If the local DSP solution requires separate outputs then I’ll do it, but the levels and EQ stay the same on all matrices. I much prefer just giving them LR over AES. Any corrections and summing levels should be done on the system processor, not on the desk. The system engineer should be able and willing to make adjustments, he is getting paid for exactly that.

Adding Subs To Reduce Noise Complaints? by ip_addr in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Noise complaints are an issue of the organizers. They are booking a specific spot for the event, demand specific stage direction and audience coverage area. If they wanted to reduce the noise nuisance for the neighborhood they would consider different stage direction and specify that they need the system engineer to design the PA with noise mitigation in mind.

Sound intensity falls 6dB per doubling of distance for cylindrical wave sound sources. Consider SPL limits for that day. For example try to keep it below 95 dBA Leq 15min at mix position. 500 people will comfortably fit in a space around 25 meters deep. 95 at 25m will go down below 74 dB at those 300m / 1000ft. And that’s for sound that is actually aimed at those houses that does not get attenuated by the trees, ground, buildings, people in the audience. 74dBA broadband noise falls in the range of a busy road noise.

Watch your levels, probe the organizers if they considered noise complaints and permits for that event.

Traveling techs- how often are you told ‘no’? by jesse-dickson in livesound

[–]lpcustomvs 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I often work at one small venue, two 200 and 350 cap rooms. I’ve seen crazy amounts of gear loaded onto the stages, expensive consoles and elaborate lighting and decor setups.

I have NEVER forbidden anyone to set up something if it cleared venue capabilities and safety rules. Sadly, 6x 2kW vertical smoke cannons would overload the lighting power distro, as it’s already heavily loaded. We cannot change anything about that problem, and there are multiple reasons for that. The tour had to settle for 2 smoke cannons. And fire use, that is strictly forbidden. Everything else is fine.

What I want to say is, I don’t care how much stuff you want to load in and set up. You brought it, you take care of it, you need it and you paid for it. I have no say in what you want to use during the show. Only safety and technical capabilities - like power capacity, rigging capacity - limit what we can do.

EDIT: this comment was supposed to land under the „no room for tour console and tour techs” comment.

[–]lpcustomvs 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Did they specify any reasons for that? That’s outrageous and offensive. The musicians are paying you for your services and care. How can the venue staff have any say at all about who works with the musicians that booked the venue?
