    war of the wireless

    I'm not totally sure whether Clear Com and Telex are related but at the very least there is more difference than just logos. For example, if memory serves me, Clear Com wired systems work on unbalanced system, where as Telex wired work on a balanced system. I know that the Telex body packs are...

    Midi lighting control

    Has anyone used midi to control an NSI MC7532? I have been looking in the manual and only stare at code. I was wondering how you would use that code? Are there any specific computer programs that will allow me to control the board through the computer? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Soundcraft Goes Digital!

    Let's not all forget that this is not Soundcraft's first digital console. A couple of years ago they produced the Spirit 328 and Spirit Live 324. I personally have not had the oppurtunity to work on either of these consoles but I have a friend who loves the quality of A/D converters on his 328...

    Crucible Lighting Design

    I'm getting ready to design lighting for the Crucible. I have very little in the way of possible equipment. I'm talking about using portable dimmer packs and maybe up to 12 lights for everything. I would also need to rig more pipes. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Repair or Replace

    Some people might disagree with me, but if you were working on a smaller budget and wanted to go digital you could look into the Spirit Live 324 from soundcraft. It's standard with 16 mic/line but you could add up to addition 16 with the add on kit. Just a thought. I haven't used this board, but...

    Mackie Onyx 1640

    I really appreciate the insight, does anyone know of a board that has an easy out (firewire) that includes the eq and other things like that? Thanks again for all of the insight.

    Mackie Onyx 1640

    Has anyone used this mixer? I was wondering about possibly picking one up with the firewire card to do some multi-track recording using nuendo. Any insight into anything I mentioned would be greatly appreciated.
