    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    I have a few productions with the new setup and I must say it does not disappoint. My LD and I have Shoxz Opencomm headsets paired to the FSII pack. It is very clear and plenty loud enough. The one issue is the lack of adjustability of sidetone control for the BT headset, but I think CC is...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    No, I've done this setup before. Base has 2 antenna outs, 1 will go to an antenna local, other port goes to the splitter (in a remote location). Then 3 antennas come off the splitter to get to other areas of the theatre needed

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    Some locations do have a/b switch, but there is a lot of runs to the drawing rooms and others areas, all on A. There is something down the line going there I guess. I pulled all the wall stations in each of those locations years ago, but lines still run there. My spot booth is A and has XLR...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    I did place my order for FreeSpeak II 1.9 and just got it in, it was just like Christmas for me. Got the base, 4 antenna, 1 splitter, 12 belt packs with headset, 3 chargers and spare batteries for all. The new packs have Bluetooth built in now! That had me really excited. I'll install it all...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    I just looked it up and they did discontinue it. Must have been recent, I ordered a 3rd one not that long ago. Pro6a needle in haystack now, but someone might have stock leftover. I order from B&H and they are out. Haven't seen a replacement either. Wish com companies would just add Bluetooth as...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    For our current show, we wound up renting a 10pk FSII system with 4 antennas locally. I know the guy and he has had it quite a while. It goes out on a lot of corporate gigs and they all have held up really well he said. Love the options we can now have with all of it. I submitted my request and...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    I remeber loking at that system a few years back. It does look amazing! I mean the belt pack has a bottle opener on it! just in case.... I think the big turn off for me is that is it can't interface with 2 wire, at least not that I have seen. We still have quite a few com packs and other panels...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    THIS is exactly what I was looking for... real world experience with the products. Thanks.Since this would be a venue install (most likely by me) I think I will plan on the FSII1.9. Edge seems maybe a bit overkill for my venue and there is a lot of concrete walls and other obstacles in the...

    New Clearcom Wireless- Freeespeak II or Edge?

    OK, looking to replace our aging (beyond aging really) Telex wireless com units. I have 2 of the old VHF base units and several beltpacks that just need to be replaced. I have gotten the OK to price out a new system, well aware of the costs. I would probably do 12 beltpacks and I think 3...

    Affordable Qlab "GO" Button Box

    Finally got around to really completing the install. Put both USBs in a cable sleeve and it fits nice on the board too! The right exit isn't super ideal, but works with them, in the cable sleeve well. Works and looks great. Thanks!

    Affordable Qlab "GO" Button Box

    Was here when I got back from my long weekend. Hooked up to my main Qlab machine and everything just worked (as I expected)! Fits nice up on my Vi3000 sound board. Yes the cable comes out the right side and the playback machine is to the left, but the long cord is no problem and doesn't look...

    Affordable Qlab "GO" Button Box

    Ordered mine today through Amazon. Might take a bit for our business office to approve it then place the order, but I'll have it for when school starts at least. Ordered a dual, just qlab standard. Might get frisky and want to make one output as midi, but for now that will do.

    Stage clock/timer, "wedge" form-factor

    Mac app StageTimer2 and connect to small display on stage. I built a small wedge box that has a tv mount on it. COuld use a small monitor for this. The app does time of day, countdown and can do messages as well.
