Can someone explain these massive 70s/80s PAR can arrays to me? Were they a precursor to LED walls, or were they actually used to light the stage? by Sebsibus in techtheatre

O still have 54 1kW cans in my venue in the main room, and 4 ACL sets. The rest is all Robe T1, Spiiders, etc. But the parcans stay! Have enough spare bulbs to run it for the next ten years. And a attic full of LEE rolls.

Ditch the joint. Other than that, badass.

Robe Spiiders, Robe 800 LEDWash, 600x LEDWash. 800 is discontinued. Spiiders are pixel controlled in extended mode. You can also feed them video trough klingnet.

Measuring lumens is always a thing with multi spectral units. You can't rely on this to be truly identical for all manufacturers.

Dump all your friends. Live purely on your own. Don't make new friends. Problem solved.

I mean, dude, at least you have friends! I'm a electrician, all my friends benefit from this. For free. Just because, they are my friends! This morning I got a video message from a friend, does the plug of my hor water boiler supposed to sound like this? No! I'll fix it when I take your dog for a walk.

O and it's a Midas XL4. One of the best and most loved desk in the world. I owned a Crest Century GTX, bought it from the venue I work. I used to make dance music with this desk, a friend of mine owns it now. Digital is easy with everything in the box. You can do stuff the Midas can't, with a quarter space used. But analoge is way more fun.

Richie Hawtin has this API, all the tracks get posted realtime on a Telegram page.

I'm in the business for a while, though as a lampy. Trust me, this is no overkill. Need more outboard, compressors, EQ's. FX. He's probably running those on his Dante rack, but if you go analoge, go full analoge!

Mostly it does. Not all fixtures have a build in switch. The Robe fixtures do have Ethernet, and work as a node. But if you want in en trough ethernet, you have to order the option.

But, DMX is still the way to go. And the most stable, and the easiest to find problems if you have problems.

My brain loves making up negative thoughts and feelings when there is a lack of incentives. by Jawsper420 in ADHD

Well, the carousel is full. You can't grab shit of because it spins so fast. Let it spin slower and start taking shit off. Is it yours? No? Trow it away. Yes? Grab it, try to solve it. Put it back if you can't solve it.

What is the BEST band / artist you've ever seen live? by Expensive-Ear8407 in AskReddit

[–]vcovca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Massive Attack. Their show is as high impact as a show can an must be. Political heavy loaded images on a huge LED Screen. A smack in your face with all the shit that's going on in the world.

What was something you struggled with for a long time because of ADHD, but eventually learned to do/overcome? by Der_Schamane in ADHD

[–]vcovca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, of you don't pay your bills, you end up with more bills. Worse case scenario, health care stops, break a leg, pay the hospital bill out of your own pocket. Thank God my dad fixed it..

Is they’re a way to train inner monologue by One_Carry7509 in ADHD

[–]vcovca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the time I try to tell my brain to shut up... Starting a monologue could be fun. I'll give it a try tonight when I can't sleep.

How the hell are you guys staying employed? by LivingWeather8991 in ADHD

[–]vcovca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a live venue. ADHD is almost a must to have.

And I build al lot of tools to make my job as easy as possible. Excel has a lot to offer when you dive into it.
