  1. I dont think there is an antenna combiner for these yet. Before you spend the money - I have the full paddle setups on my Sennheisers and Shures... and even for some sizeable stage, the inbuilt ones are good enough to the point I dont bother with the external paddles. You can always find somewhere at the back/side of the stage to put them. As long as you have line of sight, you're likely to be golden.
  2. Stretch a little to the Mipro MI-58RT (<2.2ms latency - digital - sounds better than any analogue system. 5.8 - so make sure they are by the performance area XSW is dog compared to EW300 G2+ - stay away
  3. Have your "music" build on an external SSD. Remote boot from that on a gig - that way you can always run an "outdated but stable" version. When it came to software and gigging... I was of the mind, if it works and is stable, dont mess with it.
  4. yeah, you have a rear firing sub - tbh, whoever is running PA here is kinda making a meal of it by the sub placement in the first place.
  5. Indeed, you'll be surprised how much can come out of monitors... and of course, the output from this will reflect back into open mics too...
  6. Indeed - additionally, being a trio, I'd hope they are running cardioid to minimise back spill. But the whole PA deployment looks like a nightmare anyway.
  7. Careful of this trap- mixing off the headphone jack doesn't allow for the impact of the room. The likelihood of mixing this way is your vocals will be too low in the mix where the punters are. You know when you hear desk recordings and the vocals always seem too high...? (They aren't when you account for the room)
  8. Sounds like you've got all this stuff sorted then. Good stuff.
  9. Id argue you can control the dynamics better because you aren't thumping seven shades out of your instrument to hear it because if you are standing on top of you amp and all the sound waves are travelling past your knee caps as opposed to your ear drums. The mixer is the one that is generally in control of the balance of the channels in the mix as opposed to the mixing... unless they are completely fking about with some offboard/DSP.
  10. Just watched the YT vid in the post above. Jeesh.
  11. Thats not to say it was sold for 450...
  12. So Ken Smith Burner meets Fodera Monarch.
  13. Re poly finishing - I believe tdog does them.
  14. Nowt wrong with single cuts... if basses which look like can openers is your bag!
  15. Real sound engineers use aux fed subs anyway 😜
  16. You should all play the Bass Direct drinking game. Whenever you hear the word “nice”, take a shot!
  17. Yup - for those wondering - it says the loading on the back... and from the front, if the lettering is black on the bottom band across the bottom of the amp, it's the 4 Ohm version... otherwise if white, it's 2 Ohm (assuming the power board hasn't been replaced at any point in its life.)
  18. Train them with an optigate. If they aren’t close enough, the mic doesn’t turn on. Simple. (although not too great if they are the lead vocalist)
  19. Just an extra note on vocals - what’s far more important than anything, is vocalist technique. To avoid bleed, if you can get your vocalist to eat the mic - literally having their lips touching the grille, not only will you get a warmer sound from then, you’ll get less bleed. its a challenge to get vocalists to do it if they don’t already, but you’ll be amazed how much evening tightens up in the mix if you fix the most problematic inputs. (Especially things like cymbal bleed and general ambience which makes everything sound thin and tinny. It’s great having “air” on your main vox - but a nightmare if they aren’t using the mic properly)
  20. It’s worth doing properly as two cables lashed together each with the protective rubber sheath on tend to get overly heavy and not very flexible very quickly.
