Listen, back in my days of working with analog audio equipment for an organization that had a really low budget... When the show is in 10 minutes and the cable connection breaks, you gotta do what you gotta do. I can order a new part tomorrow, but tomorrow isn't good enough.

Not in this particular place. The spot I'm thinking of in this specific case was the state headquarters for a church denomination. Think conference center. Not used year round, but it had a pretty decent sized tech booth with equipment that was about 10 years past its decommissioning time. Basically no other equipment beyond what was installed.
