    Microphones Thoughts on recording an opera

    Assuming a traditional proscenium configuration and the necessary equipment, I've had luck with the following strategy: A LCR configuration across the lip of the stage, with L/R as omni's and C as a mid-side array. These pick up primarily the vocals. The pit is then picked up with a stereo array...

    Phase rotation?

    If I recall correctly, the gears driving the limit switch shaft are controlled by the direction of the motor. Two nuts travel on the shaft, representing the upper and lower limits. If a nut hits the end of travel, it open the circuit, stopping the motor. However, the upper limit circuit is only...

    Phase rotation?

    Limit switches? If operating with incorrect phase rotation direction, the limit switches won't stop the motor at the ends of travel.

    Feedback prevention

    What sort of microphones were you using on the show choir, and what was their physical relationship to the PA? It'll be difficult to recommend an appropriate solution without more detail.

    Conductor Mix Volume Issue

    Select the output that feeds the conductor monitor, and navigate to the selected channel view. By default the type of DYNAMICS 1 is a compressor. Change that to an expander, and set the SOURCE to the orchestra subgroup or main output (depending on your system matrix). Adjust the parameters (most...

    Conductor Mix Volume Issue

    I second FMEng's recommendation of an expander. The LS9 does have this functionality; you can set the 'Dynamics 1' device on the conductor's output to be an expander.

    Loudspeakers Subwoofers and Live Musical Theater

    I'd just like to clarify your meaning on this. In general, an overall change in amplitude will not change the phase response. Adjusting the volume of the subwoofers will not change their individual phase response. What will change in this situation is the overall phase response of the system...

    Sound Reinforcement in a Small Theater

    Sure, you'll still pass audio, however equipment damage could still happen in long term. Here is a good explanation of why it isn't the proper way of combining two signals.

    Sound Reinforcement in a Small Theater

    I just want to quickly point out that this is not a good practice to get in the habit of. Y-Cables are okay for splitting a signal, but not for combining two discrete sources.

    Loudspeakers retrofit S40 for speakon?

    I took a number of S40's apart this summer for repair, and there should be enough room to get an NL4 receptacle in there, especially if you can do without the spring terminals. The spring terminals are an individual part like this which is screwed into the enclosure, with the wires to the...

    Mixers/Consoles DM2k User Assignable Remote Layer Scene Sesitivity

    Unfortunately, what you hope to do is not possible on the DM2000, as user assigned remote layer layouts are not stored in scene automation data. Within each remote layer, however, there are four banks available, in which you can store unique layouts. With four remote layers with four banks...
