I'm not big enought to do this kind of festival...Just asking because this laws had bug me a lot this summer...And that could happen to anyone who's doing outside events...Some parts of the city are still not regulated by this....But just wait to know untill when Tremblay will use is ''good'' brain..Lot more complicate for sound company, we had to use lot of compression and lot of delay speakers to get ''decent'' sound with that shit.

How was the sound? That's the second festivals with stupid montreal city 80db sound limit at 100 foot of the stage....

This is the proper way to setup an EQ...

Call ranger sonorisation, he have a shit load of these...

Long trow speaker will fill in a better way any room...Less SPL in front, more in the end of the room...That's purpose of a horn, to do a better coupling between the speaker and the air. And they give direction to the sound. On other side, they can be bloody loud if promoter and DJ did'nt care about peoples ears....Like you said, it's always better to run a system at lower capacity, that give headroom, but try to tell a DJ to dont reach the red light! They should do an upgrade kit for DJM with all red led!

Hum....Are you sure that we talk about the same QSC and PRX speaker? The QSC have a more natural bass, lot better than the ''resonating'' bass of PRX. Try it in big environement, they provide better ''throw'' than PRX and much more bass output...Maybe in a closest position, PRX seem to have more bass...? Something to check!

Sorry for the sound! Next time, I will try to put a bit less! :-)

I'm sorry to see that QSC have move to china stuff...But at least, as for now, they dont sound like chinees stuff! Are you sure that powered speakers are less work than passive speakers? You have to feed line and AC for each speaker, then find wich one a causing ground loop, adjusting level on each one, then after event, roll twice the number of cable. I dont think that is easyer and faster to use powered speakers....My opinion!

Come-on....Take a look at semi-serious gears...Leave the JBL PRX serie and take a look at QSC K serie...Way better. Go to take a look at QSC K-12 in music store, way more output and low-end extension than any JBL 15'' stuff. And they are not built in china! Or try some un-powered stuff, lot of great speaker that cost not much more than powered one with an external amplifier!

Life is all about powered speakers...

What I found funny in music store, is that salesman think that powered speaker is the solution for everything and that a pair of powered speakers will easily do the Bell center. And when you ask for a demo, they hesitate fews second before trying to plug the XLR in the AC inlet! When they finaly find how to plug them, they crank it in full clipping (distortion) and look et you with a smile and say: ''it's loud and clear hein?''. True story!

They need people with diploma there? :-)

Most of the time, the DJ are faulty for bad sound quality...They dont understand that each piece of gear have is limit, begining with how they record their musics. Start with a 128kb MP3 and that's final. That will not sound good anywhere. If they understand this, that's good begining. After this point, if they EQ the music, they have to be very carefull. Cheap Behringer home monitor ARE NOT GOOD to do any EQ on a song, or for mastering. That could only be done with a 10 000$ and more CALIBRATED speakers. And now, in an event...If they overdrive the input of the mixer, forget it again! Same apply for the master output. Most pro sound guy will use compressor, multi-band or simple unit, usualy setted at +4db on the mixer, dont ask to remove them, they dont trust DJ to leave a sound system un-protetced, so live with it and remember that after +4db, DJ run into limiter. Now, if it's too loud, even if you run at -10db, use your brain and keep the level under that! The sound will just be good as the sound guy adjust it! On the other side, if you need to push the mixer at +10db to get your desired level, change your sound company, they dont provide you enought power! Sorry for the HHC room, I think we put a bit too much of power and DJ's did'nt realise it...

They are out for the week-end...

I need to rent 1 CDJ2000 for Roger Sanchez for May 23. I will pay good price.

I dont think you will need to clip the mixer...You will have 4 time more PA than needed for each room! Trust me! :-)

Combien?

1 ou 2?

What's the first track and where to find it?

Just use back drop to cancel echo/reverb...Not so hard!

Noah, These moving head are 575W power spot...We sell them 1500$ each...

So, how was the new sound system of Sakado?

Here is some pick of the room and the setup done today...

[ www.rave.ca ]

How much?

will you take 120$ for? That's the price we pay and we need 1 rush..

First of all Noah, forget chiness no name stuff...you will lose money on long term. Second, 405nm for the blue section is violet, not blue. Look for the real blue, wich is 473nm. Check power rating for each color and make sure that blue (473nm) and red are at same power. Green should be at 40% of the red or blue. Avoid too something under 100mw ( I recomend you at least 300mw) for the blue or red....Trust me, dont spend on something that have less than listed here...Our smallest laser are green and they are 300mw...They cost 900$ USD each directly from manufacturer...And the are single color...But they work at usine-C without smoke...And I can light my cigaret on the beam!

compare power to the moving head in the back...They are 575W each...

Shouild not sound so loud...It's just macrap (macki) speakers and your heard the guy screaming...But unequal rock sound good! Forget about straight ciment wall...That's the worst!

It's not a rush, if we sell them, that's OK. As you sais, that's different for all people...I'm used to bench (measure) lot of speaker, and evaluate them using computer tool and really advanced equippement (LMS, Smaart, hornresp, etc), jbl have their particular sound, which lot of peoples love, but they are far far and more far than ideal (like studio monitor) speaker. Funny to say, but Yorkville (TX, unity series) are far more linear in phase and response than many comparable priced jbl speaker.

I have a lot of eon 15 for sale if you like that sound...Not interested?

The 535 will sound sweeter. It have a (lot) better frequency response than the 525. I see more the 525 as for high power medium to low quality sound system. It will be better to have enought 535 to get the desired SPL than few 525, it will be less agressive. Anyways, both of them are JBL sound...harsh!

Nuclear, send me bulb model for your 150W, we can have nearly anything in lamp...Yes, I will sell my 400W about 200$ each...

We have some 400W pro one for sale....Hardly used, less than 40 hours each.

94 db effiency...you will need a lot of power to get it loud. That mean that for 1 W input power, you get 94 db at 1 meter, add 3db each time you double power and decrease by 6db ech time you double the distance from speaker...And they are 4 ohms, that's mean maximum 1 speaker per side of an amplifier, so you will need 2 amplifiers to run 4 speakers..Finaly, not a good choice, except for your home theatre...Dont think to use this as PA speakers.

still avaible...

Y'es tres potable! Quelques scratch a gauche et a droite, mais l'électronique fonctionne A-1 a part les 2 slides..

Viens le voir, c'est sur que tu repars avec! Je te dirais que y'é 8/10 esthetique...2-3 petites scratch a gauche et a droite, a part ca , ca va!

2 CDJ1000, not MK3 or MK2, good cosmetics, work like new, no prob at all, 750$ each, not negociable! Fred 514-835-3846, between 10:00H and 18:00H, located in St-Leonard.
