My apologies, it was late when I posted. There's a balcony that will be on a matrix, so the wireless thing is actually a good idea in that respect. And remember, there's always the password lockout. And unfortunately, in this case what the client wants is what the client will get. Which means, I still need info on what folks are using and/or how they home brewed it.
I'm not the actual system designer, I'm just helping him out with the wireless portion of the system.
Think front fills, side fills for house, balcony, and under balcony. I've seen wireless control done here in Atlanta at a venue called the Tabernacle (I'm sure you've been there Ivan) using Lake product, on the Clair Bros. system they brought in this past Jan. I contacted Jim at Ashley and he recommended I post here for the best info.
I guess I should give some specifics on the rig.
Main floor pa:
Folded Fane 18"s ground stacked on either side of the stage.
Bi-amped 2 way trap box with Fane 15"s and the JBL 1.5" Horn, I can't remember the mod. number. These boxes will be flown.
Balcony Fills:
Bi-amped 2 way trap box as above also flown.
The Ashley 2424 is set up with 8 in and 12 out from the factory.
Power is all Crown Macro-Tech 2400's, 3600's, and 5000's
The client has also expressed a desire to use the wireless connection for control of Light Jocky and possibly chain motor control.
Also, if in the event this venue ever closes, the pa co I work with may buy it back and place it in service as a mobile system. We are also thinking of setting up our current system in the same way as far as control of our dsp which is an Ashley 4.24C.
Hope the additional info helps out.
