I have several Microphone madness mics and I like them, they just do not seem to be holding up as well as I would like them to. I just ordered an OSP-06 and an OSP-09 and used them on the last show I supported and so far I like them the best of all the elements I have had so far. Mind you I...

Ummm, wow best of luck with those. I have $500 a box units for cat5 interfacing and I have issues with them at times. You are likely to have major skew issues unless you run skew free cable, even then I would be surprised if they work for that kind of distance.

How far of a cable run will the wall ports be from the TV? maybe you can just run straight HDMI rather that running Cat x range extenders.

I believe Thunder Ridge should be rather close to you, its a small ski hill with a lift system that you can take a look at.137 Birch Hill Rd Patterson

Just to add a note to this for future readers. I used Mpowers #2 trick above. cotton string doped with rosin, over a hardwood handrail close mic'd with a C-clamp for counter weight. Worked like a charm, but needed to be re-rosined before each show. Even had everyone confused as to how the...

Multiplay has a function to playback video files, I have never ran it in a show, but have played with it a bit, it will support addressing a second screen with the first staying as a control surface.

We wrapped up Little Mermaid jr. a couple of weeks ago. We ended up going down the gobo rotator route for the water feel...

WELL...... THERE'S your problem... Thanks for the laugh!

Multiplay has the capability to handle video, I do not know if it can handle .mov format as I do not have one handy to test it with. I usually only use it for audio, but the video function seems to allow you to "take over" a specific monitor.

My first question is does the lamp in the projector strike?and it's only 10-12 years old, not totally primordial. :)There is a number of issues that could be causing a fault in the start-up protocol.

I taught a 11 year old to use the basic functions of Multiplay in about 10 minutes. If you can figure out Itunes, you can work out Multiplay. And you don't have the issue of automatically running into the next cue.

I was going to ask the same question...

Tossed... really? how sad

Can anyone recommend a rental house in the NYC area that might stock gobo rotators for Source 4 Jr's. Looking along the lines of a twin spin jr. Looking to create a water effect. I can find ones for the source 4's, but not the Jr's.. Thanks.

I think part of this is the manufacturers do not pay huge attention to these types of issues, they get parts from various suppliers and pack them based on the cheapest price. I have 2 power supplies that came packed in 2 new Dell D630 laptops back then they were new. Here are the specs...
