Working in the Space

As with any venue in the Warwick Arts Centre, it is important to be mindful and respectful of other users. For those working on a show, the studio can be accessed via Back of House - the code to access this changes weekly and can be given on request to Tech Crew exec.

When getting out, please follow the WAC's get out checklist.

Patch Panels

Patch panels are located on the walls around the Studio and allow for the easy patching of data cables.

In the tables below, note that e.g. USL stands for Upstage Left, DSC stands for Downstage Center and SR stands for Stage Right.

Sound, Video and Comms

A list of all the patch panel numbers can be found on the wall in the sound control room, next to the patching rack. Make sure to make a note of the patching before changing anything, so this can be reverted during the get-out.

When patching, use the black patch cables stored next to the rack. Red patch cables should never be touched (where possible) - if you need to change these, make sure to revert them back during the get-out.

Note that unless patched, patches with a red label will automatically link to the matching red label patch below it.
