So here I am back in the great state of Utah and back in Salt Lake. My company has taken over a theater that was supposed to close and maybe should have closed, but I have a soft spot for this particular place, since I have been going there for the last 20 years.They have a Smart Mod II-C processor for thier DTS system, and at one point was mixed rather well. However they apparently remixed it so thier rap music would sound great. Now the movies suck. Well they suck anyway, but the sound it just horrible. And the subwoofer is disconnected to boot. You think you would want it hooked up dont you think? I have a talented ear to remix it and will do so tonight. Maybe when I can afford it I can get it eq'd properly. At least it will sound better anyway. Oh yeah, then theres the mary jane I found in the cooling duct. You know there is nothing like the feeling of terminating an entire staff all at once. Of course there is nothing like working 90 hours a week just so you dont have to pay anyone. Dave

Hey, Dave,You are so right! MOD IIC's don't do RAP music very well. I once knew someone who used Pink Floyd instead of Pink Noise. I heard it wasn't too good either. I personally always use old country music (Tammy Wynette, Patsy Cline, George Jones, etc) to set up my MOD IIC's. They work great with that! Of course if the staff was using TOO much MJ, then ANYTHING would probably sound OK  Best regards, ------------------

Oscar Said:"Get a GOOD tech with the proper equipment to come in and set everything up corectly. You will be amazed how good it will sound when properly done." And FIRE any employees that think they can just come in and monkey with the EQ and amp levels so they can blast their music be it rap, metal, country whatever... the sound system is for MOVIES, not employees music...
