Next step could be a digital mixer for your corporate gigs. You can set your compression and gates accurately. You can also set bespoke EQ per channel which is a godsend to control vocal mics. The Midas M32R is a good rider friendly entry point which is known industry wide. Really impressed with that Optima projector - HD with good output - puts our old bulb projectors to shame. We’ve have had loads of use out of our screens so yours should prove to be a great investment.

@@DJRickWeb Allen & Heath is a solid choice as well - very intuitive to use. Don’t forget to include the cost of a digital snake/stage box as these can be expensive from some manufacturers. You’ll be doing bands PA and lighting soon LOL - the inevitable slippery slope into doing full stage setups😆

@@DJRickWebI recommend the SQ5 is a nice board and great to use and when you get a stage box it will add up quickly and also the Midas M32R is nice too and the Yamaha DM3 is nice too if you want a compact digital board

I've had SQ consoles refuse to boot at an event twice. Main board failed. Will never trust them again. Now running Behringer Wing when full console is needed (that thing has features only seen in $50k+ consoles) and M32R on smaller gigs.

For video: Black Magic for multi screens. Pro Presenter. Run STI not HDMI for anything over 16ft. You’re going to need at least 2 really good projectors. 16x9 tripod projector screen with drape. Audio: Feedback Suppression x1,000

I would recommend getting a pair of CAT snakes if you can call them that. It is a snake with four xlr connectors that run over a single CAT cable. Good for long distances. Very cheap aswell.

I would highly suggest not running your delay/fill speakers in the configuration that you have them, and instead running them as traditional delays. With a "4 point" sound system like you have, you're going to have every seat in the audience getting a different arrival time ratio between the tops at the front of the room and the back of the room, totally messing with your system's coherence. Not a single person in that room had a time aligned sound experience as you have it set up right now. If you simply pushed the delay towers forward by 30-40 feet, and had them all pushing sound towards the back of the room, with time alignment between zones, you would have a MUCH more coherent sounding system, which as a sound provider should be your main goal. I think you'll notice a HUGE difference just by switching that deployment up.

The time delay was set at half the distance so that it was setup more like a movie theater system. The person dead center in the room heard everything at the same time. Then volume wise it was set to not have it fade into the front or the back. Room layout didn't allow for us to move the speakers forward cus of catering / lack of outlets.

@@DJRickWeb Totally understand what you’re saying, but the reason movie theater systems work, is because they’re not all playing the same content out of the same speakers at all times. It doesn’t fix the problem, but it mitigates it a lot more. Time alignment aside, the biggest issue you’re going to run into here is with coherence of your rig. It was most likely all over the place. Personally, if the issue was the room layout, I would have chosen to bring those NXLs up about 8’ higher, remove the delays, and then add front fills. Since the NXLs are so tight in the vertical, 8’ up would have missed your first half or so of the room, allowing you to come in and deploy front fills, and get the same even coverage throughout the room.

1:12 pretty smart you keep track of all that if you know you have DJs with gear also.

sennheiser IEM, could have been like you suspected, a dodgy cable buzzing. Also, check your headset buds out, plug them straight into a mixer in the headphones, as well as directly into the monitor out. Does your sennheiser have a headphone test socket on the transmutation unit? you could try the ear buds in that socket as well, just to rule out the belt pack receiver.

Thanks so much for that important share for me as a beginner in the business.

I’d really like to be a part of this community to learn & teach. I’m a business owner & tech in CA.

I would definitely recommend a digital mixer. The subs can be run in mono, allowing you to send only the elements that need subs (e.g., no vocal mics). You can EQ your mics, which is really important for feedback, and there are many other important features / possibilities. Last year, we ran some events with L-Acoustics KARA and SB18, which is excellent equipment for rider events. We had a band, DJs, a comedian, and a sort of talk show. None of this would have been possible without a digital mixer. If you want, I can share some videos or photos of these events or from events we hosted this year. Greetings from Germany, Jonas

I use a Yamaha o1v mixer. It is old but it works perfect

Not only rf signal but if your iPhone or any type of phone is on and with the person talking it can pick up the sound from there phone

YOU ARE THE BEST BRO

Nice!

Where did you buy the screens from? Can you send a link?
