Just picked up the Ultimate support speaker stands. Did you mark them so when you aren’t using them at 9 feet they’re even?

Man, if you think this is easy, just wait till you have your partition in, and you can just truck pack, and throw a couple straps at the back, rather than having to screw around strapping each case to the floor 👍🏼

when you pick the predictable cables in your office, then put them in one case. all other cables in the second case. then you only have to pick one case. the other will stay in your van. less stuff to move :) next: your pa is far to large. you must invest all available money in becoming faster in building and removing your stuff. as an example: compare the size, not the price!! but the sound as well: coda audio hops7pro as top, naps sub and an amplifier to you stuff. when you are always 20min faster in pre and after show time needs, then the difference in price is in less then 5 years equal to the cheaper, but larger stuff. next, when you are in this product range, then it is nearly impossibel to be better sounding, only to be cheaper and with worse sound :)

you need on your stage rack a patch panel front. otherwise, you always have to go around the rack. as backup when your rack will not work, i recommend a behringer flow. fits in the van easily :)

i highly recommend a separation wall from driving compartment to loading space! a cover for bass cabinets :) for small jobs i use tough built rolling bag xl large. for storing your cables i would use a drawer system modular. a system rack with a lot oh 4 he drawers, each in a single system rack. i can build as high as i need the system on the job. no cables on the wall, cause loading takes to long. when you store your tops in a 2 by 2 rack similar to your cable cases, where they are safe, then you only need to stack 2 on top.

Here's a cool idea idea I did whenever I had to stack cases by myself. Either a sturdy hang point in the ceiling or two crank stands and a piece of truss. Rig up a manual chain hoist with two slings/spansets and you should be good for some effortless rigging. May be a little investment, but you'll save your back doing more solo gigs.
@drummahboijosh
@drummahboijosh 20 күн бұрын
And if you use the crank stands and truss idea, it'll be something you can take to gigs where you'll need to stack and unstack cases. Biggest con? It's an extra thing to set up haha

Nice van, but for reference the only difference in SOOW and SJOOW is the 600v rating, the jacket is thicker and more oil resistant. SJOOW is a less thick jacket rated at 300 volts. SJOOW is much easier to gaff tape down when needed.

@SilverCreekAudio
@SilverCreekAudio Ай бұрын
Trim height helps these speakers throw further. Also, it takes advantage of the speakers vertical dispersion pattern (about 60 degrees) which makes being up close more comfortable from an SPL standpoint. As a bonus, height can reduce the likelihood of feedback from the "stage" Check out Michael Curtis' KZbin Channel! He's got a great video on speaker set up and placement and explains why height is so important better than I can!
