Just purchased our first wireless system (I didn't believe my boss when he told me... he had to show me the invoices.) Gear listed below.
4x Shure ULX-D Quad Receivers
16x Shure ULX-D wireless receivers with Beta 58A capsules.
Shure wireless antenna distribution
Shure Axehead antennas (2)
Power conditioner
Rolling rack
I am on a X32 compact. House system is made by oldandcrappy...
I that I have now returned to earth, and now have questions...
1. I am a reasonably experience tech (on the job 5 years), and have used wireless as a user and a tech, but only analog and have not set them up/maintained them. I need to both do this and teach others how to do so. Any suggestions on resources/videos/teachers.
2. Got into a argument with my girlfriend/A2 (bound to happen) about rack configuration. She has a install A/V background. She thinks that the power conditioned should be on the bottom so that all cables run down. I think it should be on the top so as to take advantage of the rack lights. Is she right?
3. How does Wireless Workbench 6 work with these? Do you plug into the Dante RJ 45 jacks? Can they be cascaded? Can you use regular ethernet networks switches. Can I have two computers on running Workbench at the same time? Can I do it though WI FI? The rack will have to live backstage, we have a over seats front of house, with a A2 by them.
4. We have a campuswide wireless coordination, with 24 (soon to be 40) ch of wireless over 4 buildings. Should I lock in frequencys, designate them as mine, or should I scan and set every show?
5. Anyone have any good ideas for a case for the Axeheads? We will be touring with them and I want something hardshell and stackable.
