Thanks to all of you for sharing your experience. I appreciate it! Daniel

Hello guys, I'm Daniel, a sound mixer from Germany and iam quite often in this forum, because the answers you get here are always very useful. Thanks to Jeff for making this forum possible! I will have a 2x90min shooting for TV next month, using an Alexa (no problems here) and a BlackMagic Cinema Camera. The DOP wants to use the Blackmagic together with a gimbal stabilizer. Because a gimbal uses Motors to stabilize the camera I wanted to know if anyone of you could tell me about the noise a gimbal usually creates. Is it a problem to record clean audio when a gimbal is on set? I know, there are different types of gimbals but I don't know yet, wich one will be used. I'd like to talk about your experiences, since I couldn't find anything about this topic in the Internet. And my next question would be, if Audio TC on the Blackmagic caused any problems for anyone here. I used Audio tc on 5D's successfully before, using an Ambient TinyLockit, so Iam familiar with setting all properly up. But sometimes, there are strange problems you can avoid if you ask first ;-) I know you know what I'm talking about Thanks in advance, Daniel
