    Happy New Year JWSoundGroup Guru's!

     

    So Its the beginning of the New Year 2018 and were all here working to accomplish the same thing!

    Capture Great Audio for a Grate Rate!

     

    I'm a New York City Resident and the competition is great and will always be great! but depending if your a freelancer, LLC, C-Corp etc.

    Rules and Regulations are subject to change with the IRS, Production, You name it.  

     

    Production is always looking to under cut the sound mixer and to be honest we can't have that

     

    I believe the Sound Community needs to stand strong as one especially the professionals who live for this kind of work, You guys need to help navigate the waters. You guys are the reason why, I'm able to do what I do on set so Thank You!  

     

    Anywho This Topic is about RATES! and I'm looking for the NEW STANDARD BALL PARK PRODUCTION SOUND MIXER RATE

    (Those of you's who were able to increase your rates last year, CONGRATULATIONS !!!)

    One thing comes to mind.  Two actually.  Not enough hardener and/or old epoxy.  I have had this result with both of these situations.  If not either of these, I don't know another reason.  This is the brand I use and it works well:

    Plastic model paint (like Testors) makes a great color additive.

    Thanks for the advice D. I'll see if I can get my hands on some Teators paint soon.

     

    Yhe expoy should be good, I just bought gallon of resin and hardener about three weeks ago but it was for my kitchen counter and island, which worked amazingly. I'll give it another go with some testor paint and more hardener!

    So I've decided to give it anther go to build a low profile XLR cable for my bag but before I went any further, I wanted to try out the epoxy process on a connector, which I attempt three times already. I did a 1:1 ratio and added a drop of acrylic blue paint but so far nothing good. it's been sticky/tacky for 3 days now and I'm in a warm environment which is recommended for the healing process. Any recommendations on what I'm doing wrong?
