Subject: RE: Tech: Vol level of PA going up and down
Hi Graham
In one sense you confirm what I say - keyboard settings fine until the voltage goes below the threshold, then vanish....
But I guess we'd have to go over and measure the OP's gear. the $64,000 question is whether it does it at home. If not, then it HAS to be something peculiar to the location (ie voltage or local RF).
LOCAL RF - I think I just got it!!!! Is there a compressor in the signal path? If so all you need is RF interference outside the audio band and bingo, the signal ducks.
Back to your festival....
Your mixer had a stabilised power supply, yes? So it wasn't that.
Your FX (and controllers) ditto.
That leaves power amps.
What power amps were you running?
