Definitely having a debate with myself as we look towards planning the fall musical. On the one hand, I now have a beautiful, huge, Allen & Heath mixer that will be perfect for managing even a large(-ish) show with a sizeable pit and large amounts of onstage wireless.

On the other hand, having now done a show on a digital mixer, being able to use mute groups, one-click mic cue changes, and per-channel onboard compression and dynamics, I'm now completely spoiled for them.

On the third pseudopod, trying to purchase a digital mixer with enough channels to match the A&H is way out of the budget, and the idea of renting when we have a perfectly capable analog unit seems silly.

Decisions, decisions...

A little late for #FrontOfHouseFriday but we didn’t have any Friday shows. Ready for the last Seussical Jr. run of the day!

Hi folks. Yesterday was our last showing of "Matilda" and the post-show "jet-lag" is about to total me. Is this a day to sleep?
The "Christmas Carol" team started load-in yesterday for the quickest transition (of big shows) I've ever seen outside of commercial venues. #LocalTheater #CommunityTheater #TechTheater

As per my lovely and amazing partner-in-crime @josiskpurvis, putting some hashtags into my feed for stuff I do, am, am interested in, etc. :)

Let's see: I'm a #parent, and an #adhd / #adhders while raising multiple sproggen with that and #autism. In addition to #infosec and #cryptography, I'm working on #wasm security on #linux and #bsd at the moment! Beyond that I'm a #singer who mostly performs #MusicalTheatre / #MusicalTheater and #opera on-stage and #TechTheatre / #TechTheater backstage — specifically #audio / #audioengineering / #audioengineer and #recording / #LiveSound. I'm sure there's more, but that should flood the pipes for now!

I just went from empty weekend to emergency tech'ing a dance show. For all the jokes I hear about clowns being incompetent, more often than not they are who you call when plans go sideways.
