It is a Theatrical Lighting Plot

 

[S.n.a.k.e.]

Being a brother of the lower frequencies, I only get to look over LD's shoulders at plots, so the scope and grandeur of your plot is semi lost on me.

Nowadays there are a lot more movers and color changers than par cans, and usually only 8-12 specials, and moles for blinders.

The advent of moving, color changing lights has really made theatrical and rock n roll lighting different worlds.

Impressive nonetheless. What sort of PA do you have in that theatre?

I get to play with stuff like this:

We have a crappy PA in our theatre. some crazy recording board and a buch of old stuff.

But, I started out as a sound guy, so I can appreciate your stuff. What kind of board is that? Soundcraft? It doesnt look like a Midas......

I actually have my own "sound company." We dont really do much, but its there I also work for another sound company that does shows in DC. Quick easy money for loading in and out, and I get to see the shows for free

Last summer, I worked a George Clinton show

 

[S.n.a.k.e.]

That *is* a Midas console.

XL-250 to be exact, 52 inputs 22 output buses.
We have several others, Crest X10M, Yamaha PM2800M, and PM3000M.

George Clinton eh? I've been the monitor tech on a Clinton/Parliment show, pretty rockin band.

What venues do you work in in DC?

l8r,

Marc

I have a 16 channel Mackie, but my other board is a Midas

Timberlake Sound works at Lu-Lu's Mardi Gras club, and some other place of which I cant remember the name....


I worked some union overhire for Some country guy.. cant remember his name but he's the big sponsor the "the new Ford F150"

They had a Digico board, that thing was SICK! It seriously is the most technologically advanced board I have ever seen (for sound that is) They were also touring with a Grand MA lighting console

That show was fun

Toby Keith. He played in this area last year. An entire semi was devoted to carting around that silly F150, its lights and turntable.

The digico consoles are a product of Showco. They are pretty cool. Godsmack used one for FOH. They make great monitor consoles for festival shows. Do a sound check, click save, name the file, click zero console button, return to step 1...

Regards,

Marc

Yep, Toby Keith, that was it!

You have to admit, that truck was pretty cool. and the girls that were standing on it singing.....

This thread confuses the hell out of me. Maybe becuase I didn't read any of it.

Good work guys.
