RSC7: How To Set Up & Use

Introduction

The Rockville RSC7 PA speaker stand scrims are a great way to enhance the look of your PA setup. They create a sleek and professional appearance, helping to hide cables and other hardware. The scrims come in black or white, with the white scrims allowing for backlighting effects when paired with par lights.

This guide will walk you through how to set up the scrims on your speaker stands and how to create an illuminated effect with par lights.

What’s Included:

• RSC7 PA speaker stand scrim (black or white)
• 35mm O-ring clamp (fits most PA speaker stands)
• Carrying pouch (for easy transport)

Step 1: Preparing the PA Speaker Stand

1. Set the stand to your desired height before attaching the scrim.
2. Ensure the tripod legs are fully spread out and locked into place.

Step 2: Attaching the O-Ring Clamp

1. Take the O-ring clamp and slide it over the top of the stand.
2. Allow it to slide down until it reaches the locking pin or knob on the stand.
3. If needed, adjust the stand’s locking pin to secure the O-ring in place at your desired height.

Tip: The O-ring should be positioned so that the scrim fits snugly without excessive sagging or bunching.

Step 3: Installing the Scrim

1. Locate the top of the scrim, which has a drawstring opening.
2. Slide the scrim over the speaker stand from the bottom, like putting on a shirt.
3. Pull the drawstring tight at the top and secure it by pressing the button on the drawstring lock.
4. At the bottom, locate the three tripod pouches for the stand’s legs.
5. Align and slip each leg into its corresponding pouch.
   • The pouches have cushioned padding to prevent slipping and protect surfaces.
6. Adjust the scrim to ensure a smooth, tight fit for a clean look.

Step 4: Adjusting for the Best Fit

If the scrim appears too scrunched up, follow these steps:

1. Release the drawstring and pull the scrim down slightly.
2. Move the O-ring up on the stand.
3. Tighten the drawstring again at the top for a smooth, professional look.

Step 5: Cable Management

The RSC7 scrim includes an opening in the back for cable management:

1. Route speaker cables and power cables through the opening.
2. This keeps cables hidden and maintains a clean, clutter-free appearance.

Step 6: Using Par Lights with White Scrims (Optional)

If using white scrims, you can create a stunning lighting effect using a par light.

1. Place a battery-powered or wired par light under the scrim.
2. Turn on the light and position it to shine upwards inside the scrim.
3. Use a remote-controlled par light to change colors easily.

Tip: Many Rockville par lights feature sound-activated mode, making the scrim pulse to the beat of the music for an interactive light show.

Note: Black scrims do not allow light to pass through, so the lighting effect only works with white scrims.

Conclusion

The Rockville RSC7 speaker stand scrims are a quick and easy way to enhance the look of any PA setup. Whether you’re setting up for a DJ set, party, live performance, or karaoke, these scrims provide a clean, professional aesthetic.

If using white scrims, pairing them with par lights can create an eye-catching effect that enhances the ambiance of any event.
