Pattern123 Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Microphone thread adaptors .. can never change them without a leatherman in fact why can't the thread itself be just one standard??? I think a small wide flathead screwdriver to fit, cast as a keyring, would be one of the most useful tools I can't buy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danburns Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I think a small wide flathead screwdriver to fit, cast as a keyring, would be one of the most useful tools I can't buy!! I find that the side of the oval-ish part of a fish key works quite well (not the end with the two prongs) and as it's part of my keys, it's almost always with me. TOTTRBMI...fade times on a Sirrius 48 - an amateur venue I do some work with has one, and I keep having to remember that the fade times don't work the same was as the majority of the other desks that I'm used to.

The key that opens an Initial roller-towel dispenser works perfectly, problem is I lost it after our last show and the towel has run out!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csdan Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I think a small wide flathead screwdriver to fit, cast as a keyring, would be one of the most useful tools I can't buy!! I have been looking for one of these for so long. I might just have to commit some treason and go with the doctored tuppence idea, or I could just wait until charles gets the throne - they'll no doubt have to put flaps on for his ears :P My equipment gripe is the Behringer graphic that nearly electrocuted me last night then proceeded to set on fire...

Rob_Beech Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 And to stop people saying another word on that subject. Within the last 18 months I had no less than 2 Klark Teknik DN360's catch fire. So I't snot just cheap stuff. I'm now the proud owner of 0 DN360s after selling the 7 I had, I don't like fires. The one thing that really bugs me today is Aspect wheelboards. Goodness me how inaccurate do Turbo want to make them. 10 boxes, 10 wheel boards, maybe 3 fit without a damn good smacking and kicking.

billy jim Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 My equipment gripe is the Behringer graphic that nearly electrocuted me last night then proceeded to set on fire...Talking of which- I've not found one of these yet where the two sides of it output the same level, and the one I've been using this week, when you got to a certain level, it suddenly jumped into some mahoooosive noise... Made it kinda hard to ring out the floats... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeStoddart Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 TOTTRBMI... the keys on the Strand 300 Why did Strand choose something that was revolutionary on the Sinclair Z80? There is absolutely no "feel" to them. The one which I have to use in a local venue has become even more unresponsive recently and it is almost impossible to type a command without at least one character missed.

djandydee Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Robe 700 colour spot. The handles are on the front and back so when pan and tilt locked in their beautifully designed flight case you have to twist through 90 deg. to hang them. A concurrent post has been automatically merged from this point on. Robe 700 colour spot flightcases. Why are they so damned heavy. You can overload a LWB Sprinter with 8.

adamburns Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 So called technicians' who use 'Gaffa tape' or nylon tie-wraps instead of hook clamps to rig lanterns to bars...... :blink: Again do you really need to asK?John Mac. Are you serious-that must take a special kind of idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
