Yes, and if I turn them both off, the heads still come back toward me a tad. If enabled, they swing right at me. So I guess that's Chauvets version of a totem mode? Anyone else have this issue? Chauvet still hasn't responded to my email. A phone call is next.

Does anyone know how to set the movers on this thing to "Totem Mode" so that the movers don't flash back at you? It's not on the website or within the manual. By the way, the movers are plenty bright. Unless your DJing a festival, this thing is great for weddings, corporate events, etc.

She's hot

Here's a picture I made using PowerPoint that gives you an idea of how this was set up. Just imagine that there's only 8 chairs and the sky was dark and pouring :eek: Slide1 by BryanK posted Oct 5, 2016 at 11:29 AM

Layout of a wedding ceremony where it rained cats and dogs! Imagine no chairs, and a lot of rain

No ceremony pics as I was indoors and my business partner was the one enduring the elements while relaying cue points to me via cell phone. I glanced out the window a few times though, and yes, she/they made them STAND out in the rain, lol. For context, this was a "Nightmare Before...

Here's a tip. Don't just ask the bride prior to the wedding regarding song choices/artists. See if she'll let you email her sisters/brothers/cousins, etc. to get more suggestions. When I did mine, everything was great, but I still didn't have exactly what they were looking for. I asked the...

Thanks for the tips gents! All great ideas here. I'd LOVE to store my crap in the road/flight cases, but I can't afford them at the moment. Still an "up & comer". I may have to steal Ricky B's stolen idea as well. That's genius, unless there's wind of course. Albatross' set up actually looks...

I got the bag part covered, but using active speakers only. I don't have the option of passives. Do they make weather-proof breathable speaker covers anywhere? If not, I believe there is a market for some!

That's what I'm going to use for load in/load out. I figure I'll just jack up my mains for the reception to get them closer to the roof in case wind-driven rain breaks through a sidewall seam. Sound be damned :eek:

Hi guys, What are some methods you use/gear you use to prevent your gear from getting wet during load in/load out? It's been pretty wet around here lately, and I have a karaoke gig tonight as well as an outdoor wedding to do tomorrow. I'm thinking of covering my speakers with contractor trash...

I agree. It's a last-ditch effort. Now, as DJ's our job is to have an extensive library, however we don't have every song that was ever created. In those instances, to have the capability to grab a song on the fly, it shows the client an "above & beyond" attitude, and aides in a small way toward...

Okay, as stated previously, you need to take a smartphone with a data plan with you wherever you go. just a cost of doing business. There are also signal boosters out there, and I suggest buying one of those also. You then need to go to your phones settings and "Tether" your cell's internet to...

I like it

Yep, just read that on the FAQ sections. There's the new tagline "free and always will be", lol

The ones I have been to (remember, they were small, less than 100 people on a given day), they were just advertised using the 'net and WoM. Wasn't too terrible of a turnout. The reason I think they still occur at all is due to the nasty winters we have around here, and brides/couples just...

Aha. Now, wouldn't selling tickets/providing tickets for an event like that make it a "private" affair? I'm not trying to skate...actually, yes, yes I am. I bought all this sh*t already and paid taxes on it. Screw 'em.

@DJ TJ, If there's no turning back, that means that it was successful and it can generate some extra money for me in the future. Without me having to personally do it as well, because my wife and a few female friends of mine could run with it if there was sufficient $$$ in it for them. Let's be...

Here's my thought process on this. This will be a small event for now, but who knows. My end-game is to mainly network with other vendors in the area where I'm hosting this, and if I can pull a gig or two out of it, then so be it. I live in the boonies, and there's no real networking to be done...

Have any of you guys ever hosted a small-medium-large bridal show/wedding fair before? I'm hosting one in my area next spring, and was just looking for advice on whether to decorate or not, and if I should be aware of any pitfalls that may be unforeseen. This will be a small-scale event with no...

The mics have worked great so far. I was surprised at how the wind didn't affect them barely at all, and the range was awesome (75 yards, I couldn't get my set up closer due to restrictions). No drops, and the mic was set up down a slope. No line of sight!

^^^This.

Thanks for the heads up!

Does anyone have any hands-on experience with this system? At the price point it seems decent enough, but after reading a few reviews and trying to purchase it, this is seeming like the holy grail of an affordable dual wireless mic system. I say trying to purchase it, because I saw it on GC's...
