    Countryman mics staying on head

    hello, I am currently using the countryman e6 on an actor and I am having a hard time keeping the mic on his ear. I tried using the h6 on him but his head must be larger than most. The h6 would keep coming off his ears which puts the mic further and further on his face. I would tape it and even...

    Supertitles/surtitles software

    After looking at the Glypheo, I think it will work great for what I need. I am curious how this software could be free. I don't want to go with the software and then have it not be supported anymore. Does anyone have an idea why it is free and why it will be free forever? Thanks.

    Supertitles/surtitles software

    Hello, I am looking for a good supertitle/surtitles software for operas. I have been using the Figaro software but I find it to be cumbersome to use at times. I also heard they are not in business any longer. I could use power point but I don't feel it will give me the options I would need. I...

    Panasonic Laser projector

    I do have a demo set up next week with Panasonic here at the University of Iowa. They are bringing the RZ12k and the RZ6780-6500 lumen laser projector. I think it will be good for me to see them in person but I always feel like I don't have enough time to really put them through their paces in a...

    Panasonic Laser projector

    Hello, Does anyone have experience with the Panasonic laser projectors? How do they hold up? Are they bright? Are they loud? I am looking at purchasing four of the RS11, 12k laser projectors for our school. They are so new that I can't find any reviews on them. I don't want to purchase a $30,000...

    Hello, I am looking at purchasing some 12k lumen projectors from Panasonic. They have the Digital Link feature on them, basically HDbaseT. Does anyone have experience with Digital Link or HDbaseT on large live events. My concern is with all the electricity going on around a theater show will...

    Hello, I am putting together a package of projectors for our theater department. We are purchasing the Panasonic PT-RS11 laser projectors.

    Sennheiser wireless remote antennas

    Thanks for the replies. I will put this info to good use. Since I have racks of 10 receivers does anyone have a good way to combine all the power of the receivers to one DC to AC plug. I have a good idea but maybe someone out there has done this a better way. Since I have 10 receivers I don't...

    Sennheiser wireless remote antennas

    Thank you for the responses. This is the first time that I have worked in this theater with wireless mics. I did do a scan of frequencies with the transmitters off. I took the squelch on the receiver that was scanning down to its lowest setting. With the transmitters off I was only getting a...

    Micing a Viola

    I don't like pickups either. We are doing the American Idiot musical, so I would say it is a rock concert type musical. Plenty of volume on the stage for monitors. I will be using 22 wireless mics on actors that will be feeding the musicians monitors. Most of the micing will be for monitors on...

    Bullet Camera Power

    Thanks for the information. If the Siamese Cables work I might go with that. Does anyone have experience with the Monoprice Siamese cables. They don't get great reviews. Is there another brand that might be better?
