    Lycian SuperArc 400 dimness

    I'm at a venue at the moment that has two Lycian SuperArc 400 - Short throw follow spots. One spot is perfectly bright when it's on low-range and the lowest setting. The other spot is significantly dimmer when it's on High-range on setting 6. We've changed the lamp again and again and it is...

    Self contained sound suitcase

    Also! I forgot to mention what keys I mapped to. The MAME controller is basically a keyboard controller. I hardwired the keys to Space, ESC, up arrow, down arrow, Z,X,C. That way you won't have to modify any hotkeys inside the application to make things work. It'll just work by default. And you...

    Self contained sound suitcase

    Here is the progression of images showing how I made it.A small community theater hired me to design the sound for an outdoors production. With no sound system in place, I had to improvise. I decided to make a box that'll contain all of my equipment and be easily setup, and struck at the end...

    Sound design Advice

    What I ended up doing was making a portable sound system in a renovated suitcase that they'll just rent from me. They don't understand what stuff costs. So I figured to get equipment I, myself, would use often enough. When the show opens I will put up pics of my systemSent from my SPH-L720...

I have to have a definitive plan before our production...

    Sound design Advice

    The problem with this, which we already spoke about in our meetings, the shows run for a month and are outside. No one is really willing to part with their personal stereos for that long and risk damage due to having the SM team setting up daily (they are college interns,) or having them left...

    Sound design Advice

    The amp was a result of a quick amazon search, I would of course look at the power outputs.But that is a rather ingenious proposal. However, I don't have much time to build a system and find the parts. The show goes into tech June 6th. Making/finding the sounds shouldn't be a problem. Making...
