    Cable Glide question

    Question for riggers. I am having a hard time threading wire rope through a cable glide. The end seems to fray and prevent the wire from going through the glide. Is there some trick to doing this?

    Is there an "easy" solution to record multitrack and video for "virtual soundcheck"?

    For multitrack audio syncing with video the professional way is to record time code onto 1 track of the multitrack and the same time code onto 1 track of the video audio.

    Wiring Altman Shakespeare for Edison plug
