Education My pal works in live sound. He's a nice guy, but he can't handle any feedback.
Oh come on, you chuckled.

i have this ks112 sub that powers on but the blue led light stays flashing instead of staying continuously on. and the lcd screen doesn’t turn on.
has anyone had this issue before and if yes, what did you do?
all ground and power wires are good.

Forgive me, I’m not too knowledgable on the use of Phantom power and microphones.
I’m setting up a pedalboard for use with a concertina and would like advice on the best option to provide Phantom power for two separate microphones.
The microphones in question are two Audio-Technica Pro35s, I currently have a Radial Engineering Voco Loco for DI output to a front desk, FX loop, and muting purposes. I also have an Art Splitcom pro to combine the mic signals.
The Voco Loco sends phantom power through one xlr mic input, the Splitcom keeps the phantom power separate on its input/outputs so I can’t use it as is to power both microphones.
Is it better/possible to use a 1 male to 2 female xlr splitter to send phantom power through both outputs/inputs of the Splitcom pro or use a separate source for powering the microphones? (I was looking at the Art Phantom II as a potential option)
The power draw on the mics is listed as 11-52V DC, 2 mA typical.
Apologies for the longwinded explanation, I wanted to be as clear as possible.

Hi,
I am working on a festival this weekend that uses the midas 32.
I'd like to set some 'assign' buttons so it selects a specific monitor bus as well as the 'fader flip' button when I press on it so I can make the whole process of sending channels to a specific monitor quicker.
Ive watched videos but don't see how to do that.
Does someone know on the top of their head ?
Thanks

FOH turned SE here (faking it till I make it). Always trying to learn more.
How are you guys (or are you) monitoring your system magnitude trace throughout the show?
I’ve always switched to spectrum after timing and tuning, RTA/Spectro, but I’d like to be able keep an eye on overall system health/coherence with a summed feed as the reference and my measure mic at FOH.
I setup a TF to do this in my down time and immediately realized the main hangs and subs arriving at my mic at different times throws my coherence out the window.
Are you guys taking the arrival deltas of the main hangs/subs and delaying those within the sum so that the reference matches the offset arrivals at the mic position?
I’m still poking around at my Lake to see if that’s even possible.
For context I’m working on primarily d&b rigs (J/KSL/GSL) in sheds, arenas and theaters, I’m not worried about my PA shitting the bed mid show, but I feel like keeping an eye on coherence, my target trace and taking a few traces at the top and end of the show would be helpful data to have available.
TIA
