    Mixer talk

    Im picking one up for my new setup... I would go the 4D, but dont have quite that kind of budget... A&H name is built on quality... Never seen a dead board, never felt a bad cross fader...

    Cross over, Hi pass filter recommendations

    What speakers are they... most decent quality actives have a cross over built in... the yorkvilles I use, the sub is adjustable from 60 to 120hz and then the tops have a button to press to cut the frequencies below 100hz off...

    Dont know your setup, but flying the speakers off of trussing makes them look better... and it gets the sound out across the audience

    Serato Question

    The SSL Boxes (1, 3 or the 57) have the software activation in them... otherwise the software does NOT load... try it... It wont work unless one of the 3 boxes are plugged in... the Serato software is free to download for everyone, but you need a box to make it work...

    HPR181i VS LS800PB

    I swear by the Yorkville LS800PB... Used one of these and 2 x NX55Ps and will never look back... school dance of at least 250 kids... volume was not even half way... base notes out of that sub kicked you in the chest... mind you I know a sub has to be against a wall for a 3db gain, so that may...

    Thinking about truss...HELP !!

    My Advice is go Triangle Truss and Get some good Cranks... Hang the speakers off the Truss, fills it up a bit, saves using extra stands, and should get them a bit higher than you have them in the pic above... I do have a pic or 2, but they are crap quality and stuck on my phone... I honestly was...

    new to dmx

    Honestly you will have to play around with it... on my old laptop, I had to run a cable back from the mixer out to my mic input on the PC, my current PC does monitor the outputs without having to use a cable... If you cant get it working, try adding a return line to your mic 3.5mm jack

    Martin Acrobats..

    American DJ Accu Roller 250 is something simular Chauvet Insignia™ 2.0 is also the same idea... Cant say Ive used either, but they may be worth looking into... Martin has the Mania SCX800 and is has the barrel mirror, same as the acrobat....

    new to dmx

    For now set it up to run off music, yes it is random, but it will work for now until you learn the ins and outs of the software... It will just get the audio directly off you sound card and should give a decent light show to start...

    Running Lights and Music from one laptop

    I use 2 machines, mainly because the gigs I do, I have a lighting guy for... I know it works, I actually know of DJ Software that has DMX software built in, but My worry is if one goes they both go... Freestyler is a great program, but it does have the odd glich here and there, now I have never...

    Do you use a controller+DJ software for DJing?

    I use a controller for alot of reasons, but even in the wedding senario, I like it just so that people can tell Im actually working, not typing an email.... Highly recommend it... Keeps thing a little more organized for myself... Plus I can do some cool mixes on it...

    usb dmx : Velleman or Enttec

    Enttec... used both Open and Pro... Great boxes... Wouldn't use anything else in this price range... the only program/ package that does a better job is Light Jockey, but in bang for your buck, not worth it...

    Cabling Connections

    Yep. The red wire is commonly hot... your second phase (180 degrees) and is usually found with your black wire to run thing like your stove, dryer etc, (220/240V) Blue is usually only found in 3 Phase, where then you have 3 colors, the Black, Blue and Red, where Each phase is 120 degrees apart...

    En-lighten me!

    Revo III Star Ball Vertigo, LED Version 2 LED Par Cans.. H2O Light That what I would recommend, keeps you away from DMX, But if you are wanting to get into a DMX Light show, go for the Martin SCX500, or the SCX700 (little Brighter)

    I suck at live sound!!

    The problem most likely lies in the speaker... Its a crap product, putting out a distorted wave form of unequal balance.... I can hold a sure mic up to a bose system or some good yorkvilles, FBTs etc and get no feedback at all... hold it up to some of these crap speakers, and i'm throwing the...
