yeah for sure!

it's all set up out the back, sort of away from the house in an office adjacent from the shed so you can bang it out pretty loud and get no complaints!

Although there was one, I came home after work at like 3 in the morning one night and got a little carried away and the gain was to the max, yeah the neighbours didn't appreciate that too much, considering it was a week night. oops

just to go a bit off topic but does anyone else get shitty about not having enough friggin power points for all this??...

i too need an electrician to install more power points...

i have 26 power cords plugged in to 2 power points in one room - which are all on at once. when my sister uses her heater (in the room adjacent) the circuit for the house trips and i have to wonder outside to reset it all the time. i would hate to see the power bill. i have so many 4 gang extension boards =)

Aint that the truth.

I have made the decision that my decks are staying put for a while. I have lost count of the amount of times I have taken them into our lounge or to another venue

back in the day i had

two decks
two amps
one mixer
one tv
two pcs
three monitors
playstation
alarm clock
2 lamps
scanner
printer
powerpack for phone
powerpack for mp3 player
power pack for blow up doll... errr
upright fan during summer
oil column heater during winter

and other shit that icant remember all coming out of one plug

fire in the disco!

coming off a double powerpoint, ive got a 10-point board which has the normal peripherals but the other point has an expensive 3-point board surge filter and resistor where i plug up my expensive delicate hardware like the main comp box, my receiver (to which is plugged over $5k worth of speakers) and my sub.

only problem is directly on the other side of this wall is the kitchen. whenever my parents turn on/off the overhead fan of the stove, a big surge comes through and it fucking cracks like mad on my speakers.. NOT healthy.. the filter doesnt clean the signal enough and i need something better or at least relocate the power point.

Yamaha Ys200 Synthesiser
Roland CR80 Drum Machine
PAIA 6710 Vocoder
Tascam 424 MKII Portastudio
Acer Travelmate 510 Laptop

oh equipment wise i just got my comp, 22" monitor, $5k worth of speakers, highend receiver, a couple controller keyboards.. recently sold my pioneer cmx3000 decks and vestax mixer..

and previously sold off my other keyboards and rack gear too........

2 1210s
pioneer 600

PC-pentium 4 2.8

An electrician, would simply connect the new power point parrallel to the existing one!! Therefore, it would still be on the same circuit, and not make and difference than havin alot of powerboards!!
Ur Call whether u think its worth the money

yeah, a dodgy electrician that you dont know would do that

but if you get an electrician that you know to do the job, it would be done the right way for you once you explain the situation


note to spadgey, it depends on your switchboard too if he can add in a new breaker or not, if he can, it's a piece of piss for an electrician to stick one in, and run new cabling specifically for the room on the one breaker, it's just that the cabling, and the new breaker for the switch board will cost$$$$

it's also a good idea to get the sparky to run 20amp lines. then you can run more again without it cutting out.

WORD!!!!!!!!

but once again, even more $$$$
