Wierd Woods

Here's a new one, at least for me. I was playing outside last night and the Walter Woods literally lost power for less than a second three times in a row after that it was fine. All the sound equiptment and lights that the place was using caused the drop out. I really don't know. But the really wierd thing is that none of the lights including The WW Ultra's power light even dimmed.

Don't Blame Yourself

Phil,
Next time say hi and I'll by you a brewsky! I think that you're Ju Ju is probably back in sync Uncle Toad. But I am looking at a Furman Power Conditioner just in case it isn't. Problem is, the smallest one they make weighs more than the Woods and costs a few samolians as well. Go Figure! http://www.furmansound.com/product.php?div=01&id=PF-PRO But is does have Red Side panels that will color coordinate with Walter's front plate nicely.

Ric

For awhile, I used an ART power condition that had a volt meter. At a couple of gigs, the meter showed less than 100 volts...I imagine that's a strain on some amp designs, while others just sound "browner."

You might try a voltmeter at that venue if you play there again.
