View controls of Vci100SE in the dark Posted on: 15.08.2008 by Shane Fergusson Hi all,did my first gig with the VCI100SE 2 days ago all went well but i found it hard to view my controls on the vci, there was minimal light were i was setup and after a wile it was getting difficult to see were my knobs are set at. does anyone have a simple solution to this? i know i can take a small torch or a lamp or even a candle but maybe something can be done on the vci to improve this. any ideas?? i thought of changing the Knobs of the vci or painting the line of the knob, is there such a paint that will glow with out neonlight? | |

| Adil Laresh 17.08.2008 | hmm so usb light or pen light.. not sure which one is best.. the usb could be better if you can fix it to 1 position rather then having to hold it over the vci-100 se... any recommendations for usb lights.. i was not able to find anything at the mall so might need to scour the net any suggestions?? |
| Shane Fergusson 16.08.2008 | Thanks for your ideas guys, i should get both of those lights usb and pen light. i remember one day i was at a bar and this new DJ was playing that evening but he didnt know much about the routing of the sound system there, so i offered to help him, it was very dark and couldnt see the connections so he pulled out this pen light and the job was done in a second. i thought thats a cool and handy thing to have but i forgot about it. I still believe there might be some things we can do to improve visualy the controls on the vcise. |
| cala mar 15.08.2008 | yeah i'd say get a flexible usb snake light, they are cheap and hopefully it would suit your setup (laptop usb port not far from vci) then again you could get a usb hub and attach it to the back of the vci and run a couple of them directly over it |
| 15.08.2008 | a USB pen light is a must for any club situation. |
| Costa Pantazis 15.08.2008 | Hey dIm, I purchased a ubs/battery light with a flexible cord and it has a clap and provides more than enough light, very easy solution. I purchased it from Amazon, I provided a link showing the light I purchased. http://www.amazon.com/Flex-Reading-L...812269&sr=8-14 Hope this helps, Mark |
