ront wall) or
overhead.
This, it turns out, is actually fairly easy to deal with. Put lots of
absorbent material on the front wall, and some on the ceiling. Use a
carpet. See below for more.
Decay Time
Decay time is the amount of time it takes for sound to die away in a
room. In a small room, it is usually pretty short, and so it is
generally not a problem. Nonetheless, youâd like to help the
decay along (itâs called âtighteningâ the room), and youâd like
to encourage the sound to decay equally quickly in ALL audible frequency
ranges.
I like to make the front wall absorbent at ALL frequencies (this can
require some moderate carpentry, building a flexural absorber for low
frequencies and covering it with foam or fiberglass for high
frequencies). Also, make at least the front third of the ceiling
absorbent down to 500 Hz. (4 inches of fiberglass covered with fabric or
any 4â foam panels will do fine). This usually gets the decay time
down to under 150 ms. and with other absorption in the room, it is
possible to get the decay time under 100 ms., which will yield really
good results.
Interestingly, if you do it right, the room will st

>Hi, all.
My buddy Swen abd I have both succesfully clocked our Paris rigs to Lucid
clocks. Yay!
I have not yet tried to route digital signals to external FX boxes, but Swen
has, with no luck. He says that when he patches an FX send to a digital
output in the Paris patchbay, there's no signal on the mixer aux channel.
The same basic patch works with an analog output engaged, just not the
digital.
His Kurzweil KSP8 shows lock to the Lucid, and Paris locks perfectly as
well.
Any knowledge?
JimmySwen has a couple sticky C-16 mute buttons. They work, but they're sticky. I
think a very small amount of splashed beer may be the culprit. It's a
bizarre tale involving a beer that was dropped onto the floor 4-6 feet away
from the mixing area. The beer landed upright, but shot a stream of beer up
into the air, and a few drops landed on the mute buttons on channels 15 &
16.
Any way to easily clean? Spray a little contact cleaner in there?
JimmySteve,
Those are the nicest DIY frames I have ever seen. VERY NICE!!!!

the inputs and outputs are both patched. also, If it's s/pdif,
chances are that he won't see a thing on the meters. None of my spdif
devices show signal on the Paris aux meters. Have him set the device to full
wet and solo the return. That will tell him if anything is happening.

;o)The dude who sits behind me is only in the office once or twice a week. The
rest of the time his PC has his screen saver, which was a couple of words
set on that 3D microsoft screensaver where the words dance around all over
the place. Only thing is it was set so fast that it was near impossible to
read.
It seemed to say "Onya [something] robot". I spent a while looking at it
and couldn't make out what was in the middle, or think of what it might mean...
like what was a normal sentence that would start with Onya and end in Robot...
Then today at one point I caught it when the screen saver was only very slightly
shaking the words about, and read what it said...
It said "Onyas Moderobot"... which of course means very little...
....so Micheal the guy next to me suggested that the whole thing was backwards,
so I wrote it out backwards...
"Toboredom sayno".
So there ya go. ;o)Hartley sold out 'eh?
Wow man, never thought I'd see that one.

for "true bypass" switching of footpedals, but momentary foot
switches seem to be rarer than duck's teeth lately. Marshall
have some for their TSL amp footswitches, but I've replaced a
few of them for customers over the last couple years, and
they're much more expensive too. They look like conventional
footswitches though, with a metal button and lock nuts for
mounting. I'll find a Marshall part no. and get back to you.

>Kim, Marshall TSL / JCM2000 SPDT momentary switch part no. is
SWTP-00047, and latching switch (for your "hold" switches) is
SWTP-00046. These part numbers are from Electric Factory, who
distribute all Marshall and Vox products in Australia. I
recommend that you order thru a retailer who sells a lot of
Marshall amps, such as Venue Music (Sydney), Pro Audio (Canberra)
or a big guitar shop in Melbourne. If you're stuck, I can order
them but may not get delivery until the end of November due to
my small turnover (I am in Darwin N.T.) The momentary has an
additional advantage: it is SPDT, which means it is easier to
wire as an "interrupt" switch with the latching "hold" switches
you mention in your original post. LOL >simmo
