I'm on a documentary right now and I have been having issues with doing interviews in loud environments (I'm on a boat) I like ambience, but sometimes it's been overwhelmingly loud, depending where the director/editor wants to shoot. He says not to worry, he uses noise reduction software that makes everything sound like a podcast (SM7b) and I died inside.

The first generation had some issues with breakage. I've been using the same 4 antennas on my Wisycom receivers since the fall of 2020. The first generation had some issues with breakage. I've been using the same 4 antennas on my Wisycom receivers since the fall of 2020.

How close was the transmitter to the receivers? Anything within 10-15 feet should be disregarded, if you were holding the Tx next to your bag, definitely ignore. I assume you have properly coordinated frequencies?

I have HiQ batteries (Remote Audio) and Audioroot chargers. I'm just over a year in, and everything is holding up really well. I don't think you would see a noticable difference in runtime between the brands (unless you get the 1/2 sized battery)

Hey Scott No problem! Keep in mind, I added a threaded insert for the set screw. If he isn't sure how to do that, I can help (or watch some youtube videos) it is easy and a great skill to have. JP boom xlr holder-Body.stl

I thought you 750-850 guys were nuts, til I realized you're talking F. 😂

Follow the instructions they sent and you'll be ok. That being said, COS-11 can be very tricky to solder (tiny wires, kevlar fibres etc)

It's probably fine for a budget clock, but if memory serves me, they didn't natively do 23.98. But, I believe they could be converted. The Gr-2 is probably a better value, especially if you want to resell it, also, Trew has a couple ACC 501 on their consignment page.

I recently started playing around with 3D printing, it's a useful hobby/tool. I don't need a custom XLR clamp, but it's nice to be able to make one 😂

I would start by switching all antennas to whips, see if that's any better. It's possible that one or more of the RF cables are in bad condition. I've also seen a "bad" video cable (BNC) spray stray RF into the air and ruin the airwaves in general. Check any cables attached to the camera(s)

Theoretically, an "antenna farm" could reduce performance, but 8 antennas on 4 dual Rx in a bag shouldn't be a problem if your frequencies are coordinated and nothing in the bag is de-sensing the Rx antennas. I do it every day.

Rule #1 is have at least 50mhz of separation between hops and bag Rx. Rule #2 get hop tx away from Rx. Rule #3 use Rx with a "tight" front end filter (411!) I think a 3db attenuator would effectively cut the power in half, but now you have an awkward tx antenna situation that could easily result in a broken SMA connector.

I recently switched to Rycote PCS from SGS. Very happy so far, no issues.

If your suspension is covering any part of the interference tube, you have the wrong suspension. That being said, I've seen people cut a slit in the foam to accomodate the mount, but it would depend on which mount system to are using.

Nomad w 3 slot style receivers (2 x Wisy, 1 x SRb) G3 tx for simulateous mono-hop & IFB. 90wh v-lock with diy battery distro (similar to Battery Bud I) 12 spare AA (overkill) 4-6 tx, lavs and minimal cabling. It all comes in around 7kg. Typically, it doesn't bother my body/back, unless I have to do a lot of booming, but if I'm carrying that many wires, booming is usually minimal. I recently put together a smaller bag - MP10ii, 2 x MCR42 and 1 MPR30, G3 tx (hop & IFB) Hi-Q smart battery. Haven't weighed it, but it feels like I'm not wearing anything. All that being said - core strength is key (overall strength) Another thing I've noticed over 25 years. As my kit has gotten lighter, my body becomes accustomed to the new (less) weight and eventually will feel heavy again. Same with wearing a heavier bag, my body adjusts. It's probably important to mix it up and not stay with one configuration/harness etc for too long.

Check the solder connections and make sure the center pin on your SMA antennas are intact. That being said, there's no reason this mod will give you "better" range unless you use it to attach an external antenna that you can raise up above any away from sources of interference (humans) Anecdotally, people claim to be getting 10% better performance, but that's tough to prove in the world of RF. 1. You should be looking for the cleanest frequency available. 2. Get the Tx antenna away from sweaty skin. 3. Get the Rx antenna away from sources of interference. 4. Retain Line of Sight as much as possible, especially at the far end of your range.

Had a nice chat on FB messenger with them the other day, very approachable.

Bought the app, ordered the hardware. Looking forward to trying it out. Pixel 4a and a cheap 7" Lenovo Android tablet.

Depending on the camera, you might be able to use it as the master and hardline timecode to the MixPre (aux in) or just clap a dumb slate. The MixPre framerate shouldn't matter if you sync via waveform matching (pluraleyes)

Long time Nomad user, zero missing or corrupt files/cards. I only hand off Mirror cards. Due to some recent reports and the age of my Nomad, I've started backing up my Primary card, for added (job) security.

I've always had amazing range on my MTB plug on, even at the lowest RF power setting. I think that getting any plug on Tx up and above or away from any water bags (bodies) more than compensates for any compromises in the antenna.

I believe some of the SD models can output AES, depends which mixer they are using. The SD website has all the manuals.
