For converting the audio, I have had great success with the Shure X2u. It can take either a single mic, or an output from an audio mixer and convert it to USB, which Zoom sees as a microphone.

You can take the guts/sled out of the 65Q, attach a type-A lamp socket to the back, insert a 100W-equivalent LED lamp, add a blue gel, and you have some great running lights to hang around back stage.

Where are you putting the mic? inside the mask or outside? What kind of mic ae you using? tiny lapel mic or over-the-ear-boom mic. For theatre, I use the tiny omni mic taped to forehead as nomuse suggested, or taped to cheek in front of the ear. Have to watch out for interferance with mask...

Buy a non-LED pin spot, new or used, and move the transformer from that one to your old can.

The circuit board diagram with the position of the switches and jumpers looks more like the BP-2002 than the early BP-2000, but it is still different enough to where I can't tell which switch to switch.

I got a deal on six Telex BP-2000 dual channel intercom belt packs. I need to convert them to ClearCom. I found the manual that works for three of them with the Gold label, but the circuit board is different for the three with the White label.I find the same BP-2000 manual all over the...

More Duct Tape history - After the war, soldiers brought the Duck Tape home with them and, since houses were just beginning to get HVAC systems, they found that Duck Tape worked well sealing Ducts, until the real Foil Tape for ducts came along.

Agreed. Someone has to pay to repair that dropped mic. Unfortunately, the damage is not always apparent at first, as it would be if you dropped a Leko.

See if you can get the school system electrician to install a 20-amp, 120V outlet at/near the 1st electric. You can use that to power all of the LEDs you put on that pipe.

In the space in which I work the most they have a 60-foot wide proscenium opening. They have 1st and 3rd electrics (wish there was a 2nd electric). The 1st electric is about 16) 36-degree ERS focused upstage, and the 3rd electric is about 16) 50-degree ERS with half providing a little back light...

I poked around and found this specification for the Milwalkee Power Supply. "With two MX FUEL XC406 extended run battery packs, you get 864 Wh (Watt-hours) of power." You said you have a draw of 200 watts, so that means about 4 hours run time. You actually said "my power consumption is looking...

The description on the website says "1800 continuous watts of pure sine inverter energy, powering everything from your high demand 15A tools to sensitive electronics." They are designed to give contractors power working inside buildings when there is no electricity and no place to vent the...

Milwaukee makes a nice battery-powered generator. This would have no noise and no exhaust compared to a gas-powered generator. Maybe a local tool rental house has one to rent. https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/Equipment/Power-Supply/MXF002-2XC

Do a search for "Leica fresnel." I found lots of information.

Back to the original question, some Leica cameras have fresnel lenses. Maybe your mystery phrase was referring to cameras and not stage lights.
