  1. ..will be 9 folks picked up sequentially in a Suburban...most lines during entry.
  2. Any further info available on placement etc? Plant(s) and lavs? IEM for playback? I'll be wrangling a green screen version of this scenario but with rear (secondary) passengers as well.
  3. http://www.autonews.com/article/20161213/OEM11/161219975/u-s-proposes-v2v-mandate-to-avert-crashes?cciid=email-autonews-blast
  4. Dunno, Phillip..even at low end, there can be very broad brand awareness (via direct or extended contact)..which can be helpful. Sad in a way..
  5. I had to look..and I await: http://www.locopro.com/
  6. I didn't want to clutter the more technical areas..so..enjoy: Besides the repeated "how not to" in this "how to", at one point he moves his eyebrows independently..how many of you can do that on command?
  7. Awesome! I'm on it. I worked a gig at the World Dairy Expo many years ago. Still remember some lingo: "She's very dairy", "a regular milk wagon". Met my first really uptight director there. She came down to Earth after a cow projectile shat on her purple suede jacket...
  8. "replacement" being key to a lot of those. You get what you pay for..if they decide it's worth showing up for/they don't get offered a more lucrative holiday bonus washing dishes...or joining Angelo's "Poop Pumpers" servicing end of summer events.
  9. I demand to be apart of that project. My improve is smoking.
  10. Something changed just today. Wasn't working last night.
  11. Opportunity knocks, Angelo. With a whole grove of them, there will be poop to pump.
  12. Being jazzed is optional in Brooklyn.. In Portland "a huge celebrity" is somehow secret. Let no one accuse the US of being less than diverse...though Subway runs sea to shining sea.
  13. Extrapolating from Tom's comment..It's the kind of low cost add-on that would make a great addition to a 442 when warranted with its selectable return mon. Frankly, it might have been a good move for SD a ways back to have a simpler, compact iso bit bucket piggyback in same fashion..even without pre-amps..just a few TA3. PIggybacked onto 442 with even a proprietary cable..could have been very low profile. But..in Mike's apparent absence, "it depends", "market" etc, etc.etc.
  14. Gee Dave..that's not a good record for a "Supreme ruler of Space, Time, and Dimension". Additionally, product images keep reminding me of salt and pepper shakers... But if you can eliminate 1 tuna sub, that's a 33% budget savings.
  15. One option with this kind of thing could be to record one channel with clipping for whatever that brings to a certain part of the effect while having a clean(er) track for capturing a different part of the effect...mixing between the tracks in post to get the best of both worlds as desired. You might come up with something even better in experimenting, combining. Kind of a bastardized HDR process for SFX capture/creation. I would be curious what you could get here with a very slight "doubling" of the track..very slight. Sometimes you can get a larger sound that doesn't have a blatant slapback or phase. Personally, I don't care for the clipping in the example...but I haven't heard the alternative track..
  16. Yes..there is that...(grain of salt emoticon) FWIW as well, another user on Bolex forum says "The D16 preamps are superb for a digital camera. Probably the best on camera audio quality of any camera on the planet. No need for external preamps unless you need a multi-channel mixer or record double system. The D16 seems cleaner and quieter than the cheaper external recorders like the Zoom H series from the music samples so far, which used internal preamp on the instrument mic channel and external preamp for the vocal mic. " With that..I bow outta this
  17. Just one post..but happened to see it in a forum a few minutes ago: "The pre-amp on the Bolex is awful. Add to that terrible audio controls and it is recipe for disaster. Shot an entire day on it for a feature earlier this year. Two actors speaking at the same volume- One spiked the audio and the other barely registered. Had a top notch Audio team and they couldn't save the audio." Of course, can hope it's user error or a defective unit but... It came up in a discussion about using a test Cion, in which they said "I was expecting shit like the Digital Bolex but the preamp is solid."
  18. "Batteriser" in future? (feel free to move this if not right place or already discussed) "Batteriser is a $2.50 gadget that extends disposable battery life by 800 percent": http://www.pcworld.com/article/2928997/batteriser-is-a-250-gadget-that-extends-disposable-battery-life-by-800-percent.html
  19. In Mike and Traut's situations, did the communication get to whether post has an actual problem vs deviation in expected workflow? Seems to me that's kind of important. Any chance of explaining/briefly explaining choice? Also..if a request or response is made in a hurried text, I can imagine it coming across wrong.
  20. Hmm. Maybe a calm explanation of the reasons behind the approach might help. An editor might simply feel out of their element not having the (perceived) level of control they are accustomed to...doesn't mean it's necessary. A bunch of tracks with clothing noise, muffling and hug squashes does not equal control.
