Hi Everybody,Our auditorium's control booth is soundproof, which makes it difficult for us to tell if the levels outside are correct. Normally, we used to run events with the door open and have a member of the crew stand outside to tell us if the levels were correct, but now the admin wants us...

Okay, thanks for providing all the options, I will consider them and choose based on what suits us best.

Firstly, thank you for all your replies, somewhere in those budget cuts, my school decided to stop paying for a theater technician so now we students have to run our auditorium. I wouldn't be able to do half the stuff that we can do today without the help that you guys provide. So, after...

Hi Guys, Our high school auditorium uses the Colortran I Series dimmers for all the stage lights. As we were planning on buying LED cycs pretty soon, I was wondering if leaving the colortran Dimmers on the always on mode would be fine for the led cycs. We haven't decided which ones yet, but we...

Hi there,We are buying a bunch of new headsets (DT 108s) for our theater and were wondering about choosing the impedance of our headphones. Our comm system is a Clearcom MS-200(manual attached: http://www.clearcom.com/upload/download/manual_pl_ms200.pdf) and it says that either impedance...

I willl see if the dealers here have any. Thanks for the lower priced option as we do have a limited budget at our high school. Again, thanks a lot everyone!

Thanks for the reply, I just realised how helpful you guys are. As our theatre doesn't really have a tech direction ( our drama director is an all in one), they leave it up to us: the student leaders. Therefore thanks for all the support guys!

Sorry, I am currently not in the theatre but I think Bill solved it.Thanks a lot bill, I will go an ask around for them.

Hi all,We are currently having a rigging issue at our high school theatre. As our lighting setup has a bridge. This bridge seems to only be able to accommodate fixtures that are 60-70cm in length however, we have just found some nice Toño 8/22 spots to replace our failing Colortrans on the...

Apparently, the admin has changed their plans and want to revamp the whole theater over the next few years. Therefore, I have a feeling that my budget for the light board is probably going to be increased as previously, we believed that our theater was going to be rebuilt in a different...

Cool, that's a good idea. What's the big difference between an Ion and a Congo Kid because I believe that the Congo kid is a bit cheaper but should still have a similar layout excluding the faders.

I have a couple of theaters outside our own in international schools and they did seem to be using an ion to power their shows. I am planning on contacting the dealers tomorrow to get quotes after I receive the finalized budget from the admin.

Our Middleschool actually has an elementOur middle school theater actually has an element and I have used that prior to moving up to our high school. While the element does seem to be a reasonable choice for our school, I would also like to get some other options to see what the competition's...

Hi guys,My school is currently in the process of buying a new light board for our high school theater. As one of the leaders of the theater tech club, I am trying to find a good option that should last for quite a long time. Currently our setup is all conventionals on dimmers but we want to...
