Would any recordists or users of Schoeps Super CMITs paired with Zaxcom ZHD 743 be willing to discuss their settings please? Had a worrying phone call from a dialogue editor who is unhappy with the audio he’s getting. Complaints of hiss on quiet dialogue, audible companding due to possible poor gain structure. I’m also suffering from a 6kHz whine (cured by taping aerial to boom pole) and occasional droput even though signal strength is high. I would be extremely grateful for any advice. Here are my current settings:
Super CMIT set to ‘normal’ output (not +30dB). High pass ‘on’, low pass’off’, dsp 1.
ZHD:
Transmitter gain +15dB
Transmit modulation - Stereo (to receive inputs of both mic signals)
Filters off
Zaxnet off
788T - digital input with approx +20dB gain. No EQ, high pass at approx 90Hz.
Thank you very much in advance.
