Ze Frias Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Looks great Jose! What box is that you're using for your lav accessories? Thanks! That's a small fishing tackle organizer box made by a company called Plano. I find tackle organizers in general work extremely well for organizing small bits and doodads, including lav accessories.

I find tackle organizers in general work extremely well for organizing small bits and doodads, including lav accessories. Tackle boxes are the best. I also use them for all my small misc things. I use snap close food containers for the medium size bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Sonnenfeld Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Thanks! I've been looking at tackle boxes on amazon but in having trouble picking one. So many options! I think i'll need to just make a walmart run one of these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think i'll need to just make a walmart run one of these days. Matthew, two other good places to look for cool little boxes and stuff. Best to visit in person, of course: The Container Store http://www.containerstore.com/ REI http://www.rei.com And of course your local hardware store...

Glen Deakin Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Yes Plano boxes are great and inexpensive. So many possibilities. This is what I use for my lav accessories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you transmitting ifb through your qrx or do you use a camera link? Also what case do you have your lavs in Thanks Edited July 17, 2015 by GAGaudio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what case do you have your lavs in Thanks I'm transmitting IFB audio via QRX100QIFB. It's a lens filter pouch I got from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00796D03C/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1437134436&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&keywords=lens+filter+pouch&dpPl=1&dpID=51%2BHmpCeyHL&ref=plSrch I have since moved to a different solution though.

GAGaudio Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Jumped on the 688 bandwagon. I really like this new setup. I finally found a 664/688 bag I actually like. Sammy Huen nice bag! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mghough Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) I live and work in the city so I wanted to put together a very scaled down but effective kit that I could fit entirely in a backpack. This makes it possible to get on a crowded subway to and from gigs. I'm using the the mix-pre and QIFB. I can record a stereo mix to the TRX900AA and send a stereo mix to camera if needed. The ZAXNET QIFB also allows me to record in the transmitters so I can add more if needed. I'm using this mostly for doco subject-to-camera and commercial stuff where I only have 1-2 talents. The DPA 4017 is EPIC and can fit in the pack with the blimp!! super stoked about that. I've been using it for a month now and so far so good.

flaucheux Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Hi, I'm a longtime lurker, I haven't posted yet, really. Here is my current setup. I do a lot of Documentary, corporate, reality, EPK/behind the scenes and Sports TV stuff. Bag setup changes from gig to gig, got a corporate thing coming up this week at a methane plant... 1650 houses everything I need except a few light stands and my larger boom if necessary. K-Tek Stingray, 633, 2x411s, 2xG3s for hops, Comtek, and Remote Audio BDS. The Incase bag houses my Lavs and all necessary accessories and expendables for them. bag weighs about 15 pounds with batteries for the day in the side pocket and the breakaway stays on for emergencies. The weight has never bothered me. Got a lot of inspiration from this thread, so figured it was time I put my rig up.

John Ronnerblad Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Great bag but with the PSC six pack it adds 900g:( But for jobs on cart it's awesome:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkautzsch Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 This is a very tidy bag. But I always wonder how people reach the scrolling wheels on the sides when I see a 788T in such a tight bag. My fingers certainly didn't like digging inbetween gear and bag, but I feel I use the wheels quite a lot. Do you work with the up/down keys exclusively? Do you use CL-Wifi? How do you adjust HP level? Also, what are the markings on the input gain knobs? How well do they stay there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you adjust HP level? Also, what are the markings on the input gain knobs? How well do they stay there? The petrol bag opens up at the sides, to reach the scrolling wheels. I always use them except for the shortcuts I've made in the menu. No problems at all. Yes, I use the CL-WiFi on cart. I adjust the HP level in the only possible way (that I know of), meaning the scrolling wheel. The color coded markings are just another way of reading 1-8. For me it's easier to remember a color then a number. And my transmitters and receivers have them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use color coded CL-8 faders and wireless too (and corresponding colors in the script) but haven't found anything that stays on the input knobs' top.

They are simple paper stickers, nothing special at all. They doesn't have that plastic feeling that Sound Devices color dots has. I found them in my grocery store. And I painted those colors that was missing. I put my color stickers on there a couple of years ago, and they are still there. But I guess that would depend on if they get wet a lot. But since they cost almost nothing it doesn't matter:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkautzsch Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thank you - I never had luck with paper stickers on the input gains...strangely, they perfectly stay on the faders. So, more trial and error to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
