I forgot to attach the pictures I took! Here’s what it looks like, I’ll try to convince the school to get someone in on a lift or something, though with budgets the way they are (hundred+ million deficit wooo) it might be hard. I’ve previously gotten the people who initially designed/installed...

In my space our main speaker array has 6 units (Sub & Main, with smaller main ~ 1.5 stories above, mirrored for stereo). Some time between being installed in 2015 and now 3/4 mains have come to be angled obviously incorrectly. Presumably the bolts they’re hanging from have loosened just enough...

That might be exactly what I need! Plus establishing that as an option leaves repair possible once I'm gone, so I'll try my best to push for that. My school is indeed exempt from sales taxes!

At my HS we currently have a wireless mic system that's composed pretty much entirely of Shure MX153 microphones, after 9 years of use, the wiring around the connectors has started to go bad. From poking around here it seems like this is a repairable condition, but I don't see any guides on...

This stuff has been locked up for years the last time it could have possibly been disturbed before it was brought down to fix it was before COVID unless the rigging inspection guy really managed to mess it up, and there are terminators on each line. I'm gonna leave it powered up until it either...

Alright, turns out RDM was enabled on all 6 gateways, so I've turned that off, I guess we'll see if that fixes it.

It could be RDM, with our Net3 setup they shouldn't be getting any RDM, though I'll poke around in concert to check that. I don't think it's the buttons given it always resets to normal after a power cycle (thank god they installed DMX relays in here) and because again, they haven't been touched...

So my high school has a more or less static plot that's fully LED based. All these fixtures were installed during a remodel that took place 2014-2015 and have been more or less untouched since then, besides by me (a high school senior) and one other person who does not work here anymore. More or...

I have a strange-ish path to where I am now. I got started in third grade when my 3-8 (one building in a k-8) had just had an expansion and an auditorium that had just been completed. Because I was known for knowing computers (gifted kid with too much time) the principal had me and some other...
