Digico Install

Posted by Rick  Published in Technical Production, audio

Today was the day that we removed the older of the two Soundcraft Vienna consoles and replaced it with the Digico CS-D5.  Over all, the change over went very smoothly.  Last night John and Vincent pulled the Madi cables for the connection from the stage racks.  They ended up needing to be pulled [...]

Video:

Temporarily installed a 5000 lumen project on the ledge above door five.  This projector had a long throw lens and I focused it on the baptistry wall, just for some more stage color.  It looked pretty cool; I guess that it is called architectural projection.  Have a look at the pictures linked below.  I did [...]

Digico Unboxing Photos

Posted by Rick  Published in Technical Production, audio

Yes the Digico is here and I have the photos to prove it.  John is foaming at the mouth and has half of the configuration done.  Started pulling the madi cables, but found the conduit full of water.  After checking with Digico, we decided to run the cables over head.  Vincent is going to come [...]

Easter ‘08

Posted by Rick  Published in Sundays, Technical Production

Well this was my first Easter as a Technical Producer and it was a great day of worship.  I’m glad that it is passed, but also excited for the next program that I get the opportunity to have a part in.  Lighting is something that is new to me, but it is one of my favorite parts [...]

UPDATE: The Digital Shift

Posted by Rick  Published in Technical Production, audio

AND THE WINNER IS: I just sent the purchase order into Digico for the CS-D5.  After much research, number crunching, calling references, and most of all prayer, I executed the purchase order for the Digico today.  Studer has a great product and at some point I want to get my hands on the console.  Digico [...]

UPDATE: The Digital Shift

Posted by Rick  Published in Technical Production, audio

We are getting closer to making the decision on a console…kind of.  I spent a good part of the week reviewing the consoles and talking with customers from both products.  As I was reviewing the requirements with the technical sales staff of both companies, I came to an interesting conclusion.  Soundcraft recommended that we look [...]

What would I do without Quicksilver?

Posted by Rick  Published in OS X, Open Source

I can’t tell you how lost I would be without Quicksilver.  OS X is very cool but it is not the same without Quicksilver.  Now that QS is open source I love it even more.  I have been using QS from about the day I got my mac and what makes it great is that [...]

The Digital Shift

Posted by Rick  Published in Technical Production, audio

Over the past few months at Sugar Creek we have been in the process of evaluating digital audio consoles.  Our current analog consoles are Soundcraft Vienna 2 consoles with a total of 80 inputs.  They are around 12 years old and are getting a little worse for ware.  About a month ago we turned in [...]
