BOTTOM OF THE HILL TECH SPECS as of
APRIL
2011: DBX 266 (not DBX 166); BETA-58
IMPORTANT INFO FOR ENGINEERS TRAVELING WITH THEIR OWN CONSOLES:
We
have 2 Cat5E courtesy lines on our stage-right snake panel which travel
to the back of the EQ rack in the FOH booth (at the rear of the club).
Guest consoles send their FOH Left, FOH Right, and any stage monitor
sends into the SUB-IN connectors on the rear of the Yamaha PM3500.
House equalizers can be bypassed, but the system limiters cannot (due
to strict dB limits imposed by the city in late 2019). Guest engineers
are not allowed access to any of the settings in the ASHLY 24.24M
digital FOH processor/crossover.
LIGHTING:
We
have basic LED washes at 5 positions on the stage and it's controlled
by the Luminaire app on the club's iPad (wall-mounted in a security
case in the sound booth). One fixture aimed at each position;
Stage-Right downstage, Center downstage, Stage-Left downstage, Center
Upstage (where drum kits are often located, hence being labelled as
"DRUMS" on the Luminaire app fader), and the 5th position is a linked
pair of LED bars that hit upstage-left and upstage-right (labelled as
"BACKLINE" in the app).
ELECTRICAL POWER:
We
do not have a three-phase service inside the building or accommodations
for power distro’s using cam-locks, although there is a 50-Amp service
outside the building which coaches/buses/RVs can tie into for shore
power (via a 4-pin Hubbell connector). On the stage we have one 20-Amp
breaker supplying quad boxes (for backline) spaced about every 4 feet
around the stage (which is roughly 16' wide and 13' deep).
There is another 20-Amp circuit unto itself that is located near the
downstage/front of stage-right, with nothing on that circuit. If a
touring act has moving lights or anything that demands a lot of
current (motors or heating elements), they should use that outlet to
not risk tripping the breaker on the other backline circuit.
The ceiling above the stage is roughly 8' 6". Hopefully that can accommodate any lighting stands and/or truss you want to use.
