VASI Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Again. If I see x12 Receivers in bag I will jump from the window. x12 receivers it's not the reason to criticism or choosing a mixer. What strange opinions from some members... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiomprd Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 " carrying 12 receivers " that's really only 6 dual RX's ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT Groove Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Having the ability to rig 12 receivers in a bag is not new. Totally possible with the Fusion 12. I have had 12 receivers in my bag before (VRField, 6 411a's). But the bag rests on a cart. Someone else had 12 411's in a bag with a Fusion 12 before as well but I don't think it was ever strapped over the shoulder either. There was a pic of that rig floating around.

Boomboom Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 6 SRas or upcoming SRbs wouldn't hurt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT Groove Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 6 SRas or upcoming SRbs wouldn't hurt... I would think a rig consisting of 664/CL6 combo with 6 SRa (12 channels) weighs less than a rig of 744T/442 combo with 4 411a's (4 Channels). I'm sure many of us have carried that weight before. I don't think weight is the issue. Mixing and managing 12 wireless mics is another story. Just my $.02. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VASI Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 You are mixer. You can mix and managing 12 wireless mics. Have I missed something about sound mixer job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiomprd Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 " Have I missed something about sound mixer job? " in these cases, perhaps... this is unscripted and in many cases the 12 wireless mic's are in several locations, with several ad-libbed conversations going on simultaneously... and all while booming... I call that "tracking". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VASI Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Yeap for sure Mike. But if you done 11 wireless mics with wired boom (one man show) it's your problem. I don't know anyone who have done 11 wireless and boom without boom operator or utility. If you get job with 11 wireless and boom for $400 or $500 it's your problem. But you can this.

pindrop Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Yes in the not so distant future the properly committed sound recordist will have bionic octo arms and 24 electronic ears fitted..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Ostroff Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 " no way in #*$* I'm carrying 12 receivers " then you probably won't require that accessory... Exactly the *point* of that statement, however the benefit of having the STOP/REC button and L/R, X1/X2 meters might make it worth it. Especially if you can assign the CL6 faders for different purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VASI Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 ABC's Extreme Makeover Home Edition had a standard sound package was x2 Wendt X5's and 9 UCR411a's and a boom and they had 3 sound mixers with those setups. Farr get my point. If I requested to boom with 11 wireless I accept only with good money. Nothing more, nothing less. (metafora) I don't know about sound mixer rate for this (ABC Extreme Makeover Home Edition) production but I think we will paid good.
