  1. ya they had 2 ppl lookin at IDs then another one with a bar code reader scanning them that nite, dunno how those gurls manged to get in.
  2. You'd have to call and double check, but I think you just pull up and they have somebody out there that directs you where to dock (might also try calling them on VHF ch 13 i believe). A friend of mine used to take a boat there all the time.
  3. no the grand ballroom is now all hip hop on sat nites. I dont think you'd have a problem getting in with sneakers, i see plenty of ppl walkin around in a tshirt and jeans when i'm workin there with the station.
  4. he spins hip hop, no top40 at all.
  5. I live in jersey and work in the city. You pay Federal, NJ State, and NY city taxes up to a certain amt (i forget what the amount is at this point till they stop withholding) but you get most/all of the NY City tax back when you file your income taxes.
  6. the music that he spins in the club is carried live on Z100 every saturday night from 11p-2am we take the feed from his mixer and send it back to the studio to put on air every week.
  7. this could be dangerous...in a good way lol
  8. those mixes are usually done by Riddler.
  9. Studio 9 503 King Georges Road, Woodbridge, NJ 07095
  10. what are you an idiot? when I go to a ranger game at the garden and throw a baseball cap on the ice for a hat trick i dont expect them to hold it in a big bin for me to go collect during business hours the next day, why would u throw something you gave a dam about on stage in the first place?
  11. so your gonna lug around a rackmount pc in a big ass road case to all your gigs? might as well just stick to vinyl, it'd probably weight LESS then that PC laptops are fine as long as they are designed properly. I know many people who spin professionally that use Apple powerbooks and Dell Inspiron notebooks with no problems with heat, etc.
  12. never heard VC in person but usally catch part of his mix show on XM radio driving to work saturday nites...might have to pass thru, but then again i've been at JPs NYE party's for like the last 3 years...not sure if that means its time for a change or i need to continue the tradition tho lol
  13. On November 15, DIRECTV launches XM Satellite Radio, America's #1 satellite radio service with 5 million subscribers, on channels 801 through 879 http://www.directv.com/see/landing/xm.html
  14. i've had a 42" plasma for 3 years and it still looks good as the day i got it. Plasmas will last about 10 years with teh average TV watching most people do, just dont leave the dam thing turned on 24 hours a day and youll be fine. Plasmas are brigher and sharper then LCD's and dont blur during fast motion like LCDs do. def go plasma
  15. wtf i didnt know his bday was coming up too...fuckin all these november bdays i cant keep track
  16. i'm leary of any article that starts with "Theologian Says..." sorry i dont usually find my news in the bible.
  17. i originally headed into the city thinking of going to avalon, but when i drove by the line was down 6th ave and going up the side street so i was like screw this, i aint waiting on line for 2 hours in 40 degree weather and then payin $60 to get in, so we headed down to crobar. $35 and got in in 5 min...cant beat that.
  18. i had a good time at crobar for rodger sanchez and cant beat $35 at the door and no line when i got there at like 245
  19. I dunno who you've worked with but none of the CC engineers are interns, most, myself included all run their own consulting businesses doing sound for TV and radio on the side as well, and in the case of KTU that night the Chief Engineer was actually the guy on site. I'm not saying the same holds true for all radio station, espically in small markets like south jersey who use interns or jocks to do their own sound setups, but not the case in market 1.
  20. the lavs for TV are made by either Shure or Lectrosonics, so don’t trash the shure name, they put out some good shit. most of the RF mics you see at concerts are all Shure Beta 87s or SM58s.As far as where the rcvrs are located that all depends on the situation, when your doing live TV you have the rcvrs mounted to either the camera itself and/or an additional rcvr mounted back in the ENG truck, both usually more then 'a few feet' away in a breaking news situation or even just in a briefing room for a press conference. The range on most UHF gear is about 1000 feet. As far as checking out frequencies before use, only a MORON wouldn’t do that if the gear was being used for a broadcast. The shure UHF stuff has signal metering right on an LCD on the front panel, and even lets the engineer change the freq of the handheld from the receiver if he see's a problem cropping up. Just because you've never 'seen' a radio engineer do his due diligence doesn’t really amount to much- how many times have you watched one setup a broadcast from start to finish? Do you know any engineers? Because it sounds to me like you’re basing most of this on pure speculation.
  21. no prob. one single ISDN line has 2- 64kbit channels (in each direction). outbound one is used for L and the other R. on the return channels we split them and have a talkback channel to communicate w/ the board op in the studio and the other channel is the program audio. For live music yes. for just a jock doing cut in's they also use a pots line nowadays though since there are devices (google telos Xport) that will let us pass near CD quality (mono) audio over a regular phone line with as low as a 21,000 baud connection. so we use that in areas that ISDN isn’t available in, or if there isn’t enough time to get a line installed in time. I completely agree. I wasn’t aware of anybody saying that they couldn’t hear the jocks, just that they heard too much of her. they are professionals and do realize they need to eat the mic when they are out at clubs, I’ve never had a problem with a jock not being loud enough, at least on any of my shows. As far as wireless goes, why do you think it’s insane for using on a live broadcast?? Diversity RF mics that are frequency coordinated and on a frequency that is free of interference are just as reliable as wired mics. When your watching a newscast or any show with anchors on TV those mics on their lapels all feed RF transmitters clipped to their belt so they can move about the studio, run to the bathroom, etc between breaks. And those are going out to a national audience not just a market of radio, so to say that wireless isn’t suited for live broadcasting is just absurd.
  22. brithday bash?? i might have to pass thru for this one, provided i'm not workin somewhere that nite.
  23. with the exception of this past closing party (because i had other events to do out on LI) i've engineered that show for KTU for the past 5 years, i should hope i know how its setup lol
  24. yes, 2 horus commercial free see above, there are no stopsets denny has them burnt on a CD and actually DOES run them in the club. he also had the ability to just insert them in a post club mixer bus up in the booth so they would go on the radio and not thru the club system. the house sound guy hands of a L/R feed (containing the house mics and music) to the KTU engineer on site, that feeds a Telos AAC codec to be compressed down to 128kbps and sent over an ISDN line back to the KTU studio.
