    New lighting board / console / desk suggestions?

    I have been known to set the knob where it's needed and then tape a small empty plastic bottle (like a pill bottle) over the knob with a do not touch sign.....I also tape soda bottle plastic caps over back buttons and the C/D fader go/back bottons on the Express series.

    Fact or myth

    I have personally worked in at least 4 that have them and 1 that would router the groove and install them into any show deck they fabricated. All renovated in the last 10 years, one even has 2 steps permanently built into the stage where a pit line/stage edge might typically be. I suspect they...

    Lighting iPad App

    Question since running multiple rfr's was mentioned here....If I can connect one device and then try and put the exact same settings in a different device and it won't connect am I just totally screwing it up? I've had this issue in 2 different theatres now where only one device will connect.

    aRFR & iRFR fun...

    My apologies if this has been covered, but I've searched everything I can think of with no luck.Has anyone had an aRFR connect to the dedicated network but not the console despite having all the proper info? Also, the app seems to be not refreshing when that is hit. I personally use iRFR and...
