My body has been rebelling at me since I got home on Sunday, from what happened last month. It just confirms everything. I don't want to deal with this anymore. *sigh*
But work has been ok. Been working on creating new mobile Electronic Classroom units, so that's going well. I got everything set up and wired for our prototype cart, and now I'm typing out dummy-proof instructions, which is turning out to be more of a challenge than the actual assembly of the unit, haha. Trying to remember ever nuance of every peice of equipment that could cause a problem.
Tonight I get to start playing around with my GNX-2, yay! So I hope all that goes well. We've decided we're gonna do a smiliar set-up to what Jeff had going on at the 51 Peg show last weekend - he has two mics, one running straight to the mixer, the other going through the effects. So that allows more movement and changability; I can keep singing and change my effects on the other mic with no problem. I think I'm gonna use the retro 55 as my main mic, and a 58 for my effects. So, good times.
We also think we've figured out how we're gonna do our programing; Evyl brought in a smaller mixer he had, so we're gonna run my mics and the computer into that, send the main mix without the metronome out to the venue board, and send an aux with the metronome to his earphones. So, all in all, it looks like this is a go. I still feel a little wierd about using my laptop at shows, but I guess we'll see. I'd feel better using one of my desktops, but they don't wanna haul a CPU and moniter around. Though I wouldn't mind it, being that all I carry is mics and a floorboard. Yeah. We'll figure something out.
