APPRECIATE THE LONG VIDEOS. LEARNED A LOT FROM YOU. I RUN A SMALL DJ AND PRODUCTION COMPANY IN WAIKIKI HAWAII AND YOU SHOWED LOTS OF COOL SHORT CUTS . THANK YOU 🙏🏿
Thank you, glad the videos help! Thanks for watching!
I provided sound for 3 bands, 2 nights in a row last week. Your video made me feel like I was right back at work. Lol. I've been making sure my subs have their own dedicated power run, as even a single powered 18 sub can use around 15 amps (at 120v) at peak, by itself (I typically run 2 JBL PRX918XLF subs, and 2 SRX812p tops per side). Thanks for sharing! :)
Thank you for watching and commenting!
I always think of these as a 1.5. Not quite enough work for two, but a fair amount of work for one person. Doable, and cost effective, but a long day. Great to hear you talking about packing mics away first etc, the small details that matter and are often not mentioned. Where possible we ramp directly from the van onto the stage, but I can see here driving the trailer to the front of the stage and reversing in may not have been possible, or maybe not ok with the groundskeeper. Great stuff and thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your comments!
Great episode! Those siamese cables seem super convenient.
I feel they save a lot of time! Thanks for watching
This is actually very cool! Thanks for sharing! :D
Thanks for watching!
@@inthemixls I’m always on TH-cam! My notifications are on for your channel! 😁
Thanks a lot of the complete process videos.. i liked. Best. Every single momment, every “click” sound of socket, every “pop” sound of putting down the stuff are like sound of satisfiying. Because i’m a soundman n pa system person too. Feels like i’m in that situation.. thanks sir..
Thank you for watching and commenting!
I love the extended video! Thank you.
@@harlanchaput thank you for watching!
I really enjoyed the longer video of the set up! Although i do wonder if there’s a head cam mount for your camera, that way whatever you’re seeing the camera is seeing instead of when you weren’t sure what the camera was seeing. But awesome job! Those monitors look awesome! What are they? I need some lol
I'll look into a head mount. The monitors are dBTechnologies FMX 10,12, and a 15 for drums. Thanks for watching!
Nice Job All Around
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Love the video, I noticed you plugged the 4816 to the m32c, could you have also sent the cat cable to DL32 our would you need to change the routing?
I'd have to check the manual, but I believe for the DL, the Ultranet out represents AES outputs. Rather than look it up, I just went out of the mixer. But to your point, you could certainly use the Ultranet outputs from the DL
Did you mod the SRXs to accommodate a pole mount? I’ve got 6 of the SP’s and would love to do that. The 828sp are still the best sub in class by my ear.
I did. They've long been out of warranty, and the pole mount really helps streamline certain setups. Thanks for watching!
What are the name of the 2 lights that you use for the front lighting? And where did you get the small crossbar for them to hang on?
The Front Pars are Probst Lighting Uberpar (I think they are related to Ape Labs). The crossbar is from a square 6 foot t-bar that I cut down to size
Sounds great! I am a solo tech myself. Any chance you would be willing to share your scene ? I would love to see your eq compression ect. I learn a lot by seeing how other engineers work.
If you edit with Davinci Resolve you can easily eliminate the background noise in your videos. Especially the parts when you're in your truck. It's only in the paid version, but it's a game-changer. I have Izotope RX and Waves Clarity but Resolve works better and is easier to use.
@@ChrisDorrmusic thank you! Resolve is great and I'll look into using that feature more in those scenes going forward. Thanks for watching!
Not afraid of tripping that power conditioner with all the wedges on it? What kind of amperage does each wedge draw?
According to the manual, at 1/3 power "under heavy operating conditions" the draw is 2 amps for the 12/15 and 1.4 amps for the 10s
what size monitors you got they look very very very lightweight and compact i like that
The monitors are dBTechnologies FMX 10, 12, and a 15 for drums
how do you find it best to pre aim the lights before you go up with them ?
Sometimes it's trial and error. I find the more I use the lights, I learn their coverage pattern, which helps to make some aiming decisions prior to sending them in the air. Thank you for watching and commenting!
How old are the JBL subs? Looks like they been through some rough useage… 😢
I believe I got them in 2016, soon after they were released by JBL. So they are about 8 years old now and still making $. Thank you for watching and commenting!
My question to you is the title of your video says Meijer but I’m seeing you’re running JBL cabinets now. I haven’t watched the whole video but what part of it are you using Meyer oh wait so I added this comment after looking it looks like you’re running the monitors are the brand that I was talking about personally I have never heard that brand but I do know it’s a good brand and second as I’m watching your video say you’re running the mono on the house have you ever thought about running Stereo especially for outside? It actually sounds better in the long run of my opinion than mono, but that’s just my personal opinion now in an arena or someplace like that maybe it’d be different but anyway besides that actually this weekend I’m going to be putting up a large sound system in a local church probably I would say the speakers alone or half 1 million maybe more as we’re dealing with probably 12 subs and six liner raisesand then we got a German board made by SL that’s real nice from Germany
They Meyer boxes are the "tops" being used for mains. They are Ultra X40s. I use Yamaha covers with them
why not plug the front monitors into the line you dropped in the front ?
I haven't timed it, but I feel it's more efficient to use the power/xlr combo cables for the wedges. Instead of having to coil, store, and layout a power cable and xlr feed, the combo cable is just one cable to pack up instead of two. I also feel it makes for a cleaner stage, and it keeps the outlets in the stringer open for the band to use. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@inthemixls What brand power stringer is that? Looks like it has 4 outlets every 5-6 feet?
@@joelglaser5657 They are a stringer from Seismic Audio. I decided to take a chance on them, and they've been working out nicely.
Where are you located?
I saw that you use the Midas DN4816-O to send the monitor wedges? I was thinking that this equipment do not have the voltage to do that.
I haven't measured the voltage, but it drives my powered speakers to the levels I require.
It's balanced XLR at the same level that would come out of the desk. why wouldn't it work?
Can someone tell that other guy that this guy is trying to make a video so he can shut up!
