wireless

I'm helping out a theatre purchasing some new lighting equipment. Given that they tour from 2 different cities across the state multiple times a year I thought that it might be helpful for them to get a couple of showbaby wireless dmx devices. Some that stay, some that go, some that are in box...

Maybe I'm just daydreaming here...Is there a product out there that outputs on multiple Wireless DMX bands? Something that can talk both to CRMX units and W-DMX units? Or is this not feasible?

Hi all,I'm working with a decent inventory (~30+) of Sennheiser MKE-2's this summer, however the company has lost most all of the original caps for the elements. I'd like to have caps as it is an outdoor production and I want all the "sweat-out" protection and wind suppression I can get before...

In the upcoming month, we are purchasing 6 additional microphones (AudioTechnica 3000s). What is the best rack i can get for these that has locking functionality? It needs to be big enough to hold the 6 wireless receivers and a rack drawer for storing the transmitters and other miscellaneous...

After a quick search I did not see any related threads to this, but apologies if it's already been discussed! I am wondering if 50ohm BNC terminators should be used on unused outputs of RF distros? Specifically looking at Sennheiser ASA1's.

I have a question that I believe I know the answer to, but thought I would crowd source it in case I'm wrong.I have a prop that wants to move around the stage and be covered in Christmas Lights. I had looked at using LED 12VDC Christmas Lights on an RC4 Magic and 12VDC battery so that I can at...

Hello there!I'm a long term stalker of this awesome forum, but this is my first real post! I'm looking for some pointers...We're currently producing a tap show and during a run last night had a hair brain idea of lit tap shoes. Was thinking about using led tape on the cast's taps - but a bit...

Installed in our building is a 2 channel older Clear-com system, we only use Channel A and the whole wired system works just fine. We have recently borrowed an Older HME RW800 4 pack wireless system in the 470.00 Mhz Range. There is a wiring diagram printed on the top of he RW800 base station...

So from a previous thread, we have a small studio lighting system consisting of 10 SlimDIM SD2's a little DSQ 12 LX-console, and a wireless transmitter. All of the SD2's have wireless receiver antennas mounted in the DMX IN portAll of the Wireless/Link indicators are flashing on the SD2's...

Just joined. I asked a new client last night where he got my name, and he told me Control Booth. Figured I had better check things out.Our goal is to meet the needs of the wireless microphone users in theatre/theater with mic elements, transmitter belts, production hangers, antenna systems...

Hello everyone,Based on various threads like this one - https://www.controlbooth.com/threads/sennheiser-audio-technica-shure.35676/#post-310456And many others, it seems like it may be better to rent my various wireless microphones (likely Shure QLX-D or Sennheiser 300 or 500s) when I need...

Well, once again I am baffled by something I thought would be easy to understand. My company has eight Shure SLX4 receivers, and eight SLX1 transmitters. Six of the SLXs are in band H5 and two of them are in band J3. When I got the system (on loan so I can learn how it works), all eight were...

My community theater company apparently had a custom equipment box made for their eight Shure wireless microphone receivers and their Behringer mixer. The box weighs a ton and the wiring involves a pair of one-to-three AC adapters plugged into an AC power strip. I'm thinking there's a better way...

Hello everyone long time lurker, needing help on wireless sound. Said almost the same in the New Member Board, but this is the right place to post.I'm being tasked to come up with a mobile solution for sound. Min requirements 7 wireless singers, 2 of which will also be dancing (musical...

Hello everyone!Long time reader, finally decided to sign up... as my "hobby" of all things light, sound, and tech... is turning into something larger... for a few years now, my wife and I have been running a small school, teaching acting dancing and singing.. well school is growing... it's...

Noticed the push from vendors for the new A1 band from Sennheiser. I am wondering if this is a general response to the potential demise of the B band. The bigger question is just how free and clear the 470-516 Mhz area is? Most of what I am running are A band (518 Mhz) with a few B band units...

Hello everyone.I am currently working on a production of Heathers The Musical. There are several instances where actors need to be shirtless on stage and I'd like to conceal their mics as best as possible. I am using Shure QLXD1 transmitters with Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier mics. I plan to...

I'm from the UK and looking at buying a set of 12 mics that can be used both here and in the US. The band we have available to use here is 606-613MHz. Is this usable at all in the States? Looking at buying a Trantec 5.3 which is tuneable from 606-622 MHz. Would this give us enough bandwidth to...

Hi,I was wondering if anyone knows of a replacement for the Clear-Com CL200 Call light actuator. The theatre I work for has a DX200, DX210, and MS-702. They are trying to integrate them into one system after I fixed the shorts in the 2 channel wiring.Being able to call from a wired beltpack...

Hi,In our gymnasium, we will be replacing 2 OLD wireless microphones which didn’t get the treatment following a recent sound upgrade. The rack containing the mics is inside a concrete block room. Recently, the PA announcer has complained of signal dropout in certain locations of the gym. I...
