    Atomic 3000, No Fans...

    Hey there!We have 5 Atomic 3000s and none of the fans seem to be turning on when they are used. We had them at a show where the ambient temperature was quite high, possibly even reaching the maximum of 42 Celsius around the fixture. 4/5 of our atomics would stop responding to DMX as they were...

    Funky Cable in the pit.

    Here's a picture. There are no others in our whole stage area. I'm almost sure it isn't sound, the only built in sound equipment we have it a PA system and it only has XLR inputs. I noticed some of you said I might be able to use my other dimmers by running cables directly into the dimmer rack...

    Funky Cable in the pit.

    I also just looked at the link above that came up on socapex... it could be a 37 pin socapex... It says amphenol at the bottom and 28-21s at the top. Pins are labeled with uppercase and lowercase letters.

My school was built in 55, so everyone thought it was just from and old system. After more research, ive finally...

    Stage/Theatre Renovation

    The school suggested it, i though why not suggest it if there is a "unlimited budget" ;) our system works fine, although it would be nice to have a loading platform(they have been meaning to put one in for years). Our system is a tad beat up though, mainly from people not knowing how to use it...

    Stage/Theatre Renovation

    I go to a high school built in the 50s and I do most of the lighting and the other day the assistant principal went up to my tech teacher and asked him:"If we were to renovate the stage and you had an unlimited budget, what would you change/get?" So my teacher has asked me and some other techies...
