Members RoboPimp Posted September 14, 2004 Members Share Posted September 14, 2004 personally, I have had several first hand experiences with mackie boards breaking down. A much higher rate than ANY other brand I have EVER used, even the REALLY CHEAP ones. Basically, I think the boards sound OK, but think they are built like {censored}. Just personal experience.

While that may be true,it doesn't sound like there was a mixer problem after all,regardless of the thread title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah....plug mics into snake, snake into mixer. Doesn't work. Remove snake, plug directly into mixer. Works. Yup, must be the mixer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Brad Harris Posted September 14, 2004 Members Share Posted September 14, 2004 Similar to: Why do my UPA's for monitors don't want to make usable volume? Pull the inserts, work just fine, repatch the inserts and realize that the crossrented eq's (4ch of 12) have modified pin 3 hot outputs? (That and to put the console in aux mode instead of group mode ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PrimordialOoze Posted September 14, 2004 Author Members Share Posted September 14, 2004 There were 2 channels not working on the mixer earlier in the day so I thought that I would use the other channels etc..... but, when we started hooking it all up some other channels went out actuaaly all of them while connected to the snake , so we took the board to the stage and flicked the switch about 20 to 30 times and enough channels came on that we needed so we jammed it out after a short soundcheck the subs kicked ass:) KYC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what's the deal with mentioning the subs all the time? Did you get new ones or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PrimordialOoze Posted September 14, 2004 Author Members Share Posted September 14, 2004 we rented some subs:) these http://www.yorkville.com/products.asp?type=29&cat=2&id=126 and another power amp and crossover.. It had been a while since we have played through some subs correctly powered. The low-end that we are pushing really worked well with the subs.. all the people really cheered us on, very full sounding, It really thrilled me:) I am going to put the mixer in the shop just as soon as this Hurricane hits:) Later KILLYOURCOMPUTER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
