    Inexpensive Assistive Listening System

    My plan was to go with the FM Listen system, but I'm no longer directly involved in the project/renovations, so I'm not sure what is being planned.

    Inexpensive Assistive Listening System

    Thanks all. I did some more in depth research after posting and discovered the first half of @MNicolai's post about why IEM's are a no-go. A friend in education suggested Williams, but the Listen ones look very nice. I'm glad to see that it's only $3-4k. We should be able to find a way to get...

    Inexpensive Assistive Listening System

    I'm looking for suggestions for an inexpensive assistive listening system for our theatre. The original plan was to wait until our current construction project to make our building/theatre accessible was complete, and then fund-raise to hire a consultant and get a good quality system in place...

    Noisy Wire-Guide Rigging

    Follow up to give credit where it's due. Someone at IWeiss saw this thread back in January and they manufactured (on their own dime) new arbors with inserts to cut down the noise. Which we very much appreciate.

    Jagged Little Pill Scenery Projections

    A friend of mine was involved in getting the projections working for that show when it was still in Boston, but I assume it's pretty much the same. Here's what they told me at the time:

    Noisy Wire-Guide Rigging

    Ok, seems like I should give the installers a call and see if they can do something about it, since it's sounding like this could be considered an incomplete install.

    Noisy Wire-Guide Rigging

    Yeah, it's all IWeiss equipment. There were a number of issues with the install due to the way the IWeiss stuff was made. I plan to ask our rigging contractor to quote Clancy stuff when we find the money to replace the rest of our lines.What Ron suggested was kind of what I was thinking, yeah...

    Noisy Wire-Guide Rigging

    Hi FolksWe recently replaced some of our ancient wire-guide linesets with modern ones, and have noticed that they are much noisier. The old ones had the wire-guides go through a block of wood, which kept them really quiet:But the new ones just have the guides go right through the steel...

    Flooring for Roller Skates

    (I couldn't decide if this should go here or in the Safety forum. Mods, please move if I chose wrong)I looked around a bit and found notes on general safety for skates on stage, but nothing about the best flooring choice.We're producing Xanadu next spring, and we have some concerns about...

    Budget Wireless Element Suggestions

    Same Sennheiser systems here. We've replaced most of our 12 year old Countryman elements with a combo of Bodymics Drury Lane earsets (DE3V) lavs (DL3). We've been very happy with both of them - good sound, decent quality, and great customer service.The price has gone up a fair bit in the last...

    Automated Fixtures Elation Arena Par Zoom vs Martin Rush MH 6

    We have 4 of the MH 6 fixtures and are generally happy with them. We bought them to use as specials, but I find they get used much more often as a top/back wash. They have a pretty nice range of color, and can zoom quite wide, though they do lack punch if you zoom them all the way out...

    We just opened a production of Cabaret that I LD'd, including building a vacuform machine to make our own clam-shell footlights.

    Amateur Lighting Plot Program

    https://drafty-app.com/It's not the best program out there, but for $20 for a 1 month license it definitely gets the job done. And the developers are pretty responsive if you have minor requests or find any bugs.

    What do you want the CB crew to investigate for you?

    I'd like to know more about/see video of ETC's new FlyPipe and ColorSource Raceway products. Presumably they'll eventually post info online, but right now all we have are the names - http://www.etcconnect.com/About/News/ETC-and-High-End-Systems-unite-at-LDI-2018-with-new-products-in-tow.aspx
