DIY-Colour Code


Lawrence Chick

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

Firstly i have to thank Scott Farr, for his original idea in colour coding his 8 pcs of 411 in a way I liked it. However, I understand that he actually painted over the unit. However, it wouldn't be my personal preference in case for whatever reason I was going to sell then like errr.... 20 years down the line (kidding). But hence, after much thought, I had idea of putting heat shrink sleeves over them. And so here it is. Hope you guys find this helpful. Just my bit of sharing.. :)

 

 

Best Regards,

Lawrence

Lawrence, looks great! I'll be doing something similar soon. I was wondering how you like the PSC antenna distro?

Steve

Thanks Steve, Yes, I do like the PSC antenna distro a lot and it does take a bit more battery juice if you need to power up your active sharkfins, so just factor that in to bring more batteries on set or a charger. If you are using it with whips, then it uses lesser battery. Perhaps that was just stating the obvious, since obviously it definitely needs some power to power up the active sharkfins. Just a heads up only. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with it. Hope that helps.

I'm liking my PSC distro as well.  When you use it with whips, where to you mount them?

Hi, When I use the whips, I mount directly on the PSC distro itself. If there's any dislike about the PSC, I must admit that it's an incredible tight fit to put them in (and taking them out). This is using the whips supplied by Lectro. Otherwise, a happy user. Hope that helps. :)

Hi Lawrence,

 

Very well organized!  Do you mind stating what connectors you used.  Looks like they would assist with strain relief from hitting the sides of the bag.  Hitting the side of the bag is an issue with me when using the std XLR neutrik.

 

Thanks in advance,

Scott

Scott, Sorry didn't quite get your question on hitting the sides of the bag, but I use Neutriks connectors for the XLRs too.
