Equipment and Power

Pit: Uses of power = 13amp and 16amp. Our DQ rack which distrobutes signal to the digico desk is powered by 16amp found in the upsatge left corner of the pit. we postioned our DQ rack at the front of the pit, DSL. This was because we had four subs on this show, two B1 - L + R and two C7 Subs - L + R. these were powered by amplifiers inserted in our DQ rack in the pit. We avoided long unwated runs of NL4(speaker cable) and were able to concentrate all of our cable runs at the front of the pit where easily accesible and out of the way of band memebers.

Nineteen microphones were used in our pit band. Microphone types included: DPA 4099 - Violins, Violas, Bass, Cello which were all attached using specific clips designed for each instruments. For eaxmple: VIOLINCLIP.png File:VIOLINCLIP.png

Each instruments microphone is connected to the DQ rack in the inputs section via XLR cable. We used three stage boxes around the pit in order to control the amount of cable needed. See Image below. PIT1234.jpeg
