We are seeing them in Detroit at the state theatre.  I have a GA balcony ticket... I am going to get there early to get in the front row of the balcony (hopefully...)

Peace-

about using a vu meter with a ua-5, i think that would be really easy and quite effective!  think about it...it has rca outs on the rear, if those are active while outputting a digital signal say to your jb3, then you can get accurate levels right off the pre before it even gets to the jb3, just get a y-adaptor for twin rca's > 1/8" stereo.

i wish you all well in your taping, i'll be running around with a big grin on my face.  If you see a fellow with a brown and yellow hungry howie's trucker hat on--thats me.  maybe i'll stop by the "section" and say hi to everyone before the show starts.  it'd be cool to meet some of you.

oh, and if you've never been to the state, there are two balcony's, the top one hangs out over the bottom one a bit.  but the bottom one is right above the board.

nice finds! +T

this one http://www.hobbytron.net/vk4305.html looks perfect ... just solder on a  stereo miniplug and plug it into the headphone jack of the jb3. it could probibly run off the same battery as a UA-5. you could even get a realy nice one http://www.hobbytron.net/vk4306.html.

Dissclamer: I dont know shit! the most advanced soldering / electrical building project i'v done is the jordan shapiro battery pack.

Nice find!!  +T's all around!  I'm gonna order one right now and play around with it when I get back from FL.

I'll try my hardest to make it there.  I have GA everywhere, so getting around shouldn't be too hard.

For the UA-5ers, any chance to make the meter accept an optical signal which I don't use on mine?

If I rememeber correctly you can change the levels being output on the RCAs.  Point being, the levels being sent on the RCAs don't always match those of the digital.

I've had the same thought, but using the coax out.  As far as I can tell, it's not possible / easy to monitor the digital signal for levels.  The only devices I've seen are very expensive and involve doing D>A and then monitoring the analog output.  Calibration is obviously key...

What I thought would be a fun diy project turned into a wild goose chase.

One of the knobs on the front does it... I think the one above the phones jack

I am at work right now and can't check but I think Lee has it right.  One is the headphones level and the other is output.

yes it says output above it, i havent messed with it to see if it does change the rca outs, assuming that it does. all the way up would put it at line level correct? making the meter accurate?
