I've mic'd smaller 20 - 40 piece orchestra's indoors and outdoors and if indoors typically will section mic with the mic favoring the 1st chair player a bit, as when they play a solo bit the rest of...

Yeah, not convinced that's my issue, though. We're pretty minimal on plugins and have been using the same ones in the same way for a few years now.
I'm leaning more towards the bad MIDI data as...

Sorry, Carl, I meant the latest update to version 3, I didn't upgrade to 4.

No new vst plugins since quite awhile, primarily SAC delay, levelizer and verb plus some of the Classic series chorus...

Hey folks,
So, SAC crashed a few minutes into the Sunday service yesterday after running for over 30 minutes.
No user action, just a random "SAC.EXE has stopped working".
I think this is the first...

Yeah, sorry if that came across to scary, lol. As Rich said, just do your due diligence and verify everything will do what you need :)

When you're putting together a Dante setup, before you settle for a cheap Best Buy or Monoprice network switch you need to know if you'll be using unicast or multicast (multicast also requires IGMP...

I suppose that could be true, however, a Ricoh PCIe chipset would not be the same thing as a Ricoh Firewire chipset. Ricoh is a company, not a model number, and they make a plethora of chipsets...

Matt,
Did you have the FW400 or FW800 version?
I'm thinking of just going with the faster FW800 with an adapter cable for future capabilities, which I've used with hard drives and such.
Just not...

The ExpressCards themselves can have Texas Instruments, Ricoh, VIA, etc chipsets, depending on the ExpressCard configuration (Firewire, USB, RS232, Ethernet, etc). However, regardless of the type of...

Correct, but I'm not asking about onboard Firewire chips...I'm talking about using TI-chip-equipped Firewire ExpressCards (TI=Texas Instruments).
(Note: Ricoh's, and VIA's for that matter, are...

Hey folks,
My wife and I have a small acoustic cover trio with our daughter, basically 3 vox, acoustic guitar via Digitech Stereo Looper and percussion/cajone mic.
I'm currently using a small...

Thanks, Bob. I'll be curious to see if they would end up being daisy-chain-able like the BCF2000 and Motormix, or limited to one pack like the Mackie.

Jeff

And the Scribble strips work as well?

Thanks,
Jeff

So Bob, maybe you can answer...will the new Berhinger Xtouch work with pre-4.0 SAC, and if so, what are the limitations? I.e. would the scribble strips work with it?

Thanks,
Jeff

Anyone using them with SAC?
If so, are they limited to 1 pack like most surface templates or are they daisy chainable like the BCF and Motormixes? (Pre-4.0 SAC).

My Motormixes are going belly up...

Swivel mount adapter. Here's one that would do nicely:

Donnie,
If you want a quick primer on stereo mic'ing techniques, including XY, ORTF, NOS and MS vs spaced stereo, check out this Shure article:...

To err is human
To really foul things up requires a computer
To lose all semblance of sanity in any shape or form requires the Government

Ok, fine. How about at least an OPTION to send it to both channels then?
Dead simple is a relative term when you're talking about stuff done by volunteers and moms and dads ;)

Jeff

lol...careful, your sarcasm is showing...

I had a feeling there might be issues when we were doing these walk-up "we are for" statements...they had a guy with an SLR camera with one of my wireless...

I've since analyzed the audio in Audacity and found that the spot where the voices cut out was the only spot that the voices were on both the left and right channels (polarity likely reversed), while...

So I'm starting to think this is a video file audio issue...the church uploaded a longer version of the video to Youtube and I was watching it on my iPhone. At about 1/2 way through the "video...

That's what I'll be checking this weekend.

The PC audio input is simply a 3.5mm to L/R TS cable into a Rolls RM203x stereo line mixer, whose main TRS outputs feed a pair of MOTU 2408 TRS...

If you mean the polarity switch on the channel, then no, it wasn't. Although it didn't make a difference switching it either, which I would think would reverse the effects of a physical polarity...

Hey folks,
I had a video that we played on the church projection PC this weekend and the voices were gone but the music was there (this was a video camera recording of people talking with music...
