Comprehensive location sound book.

Is there any very in-depth books (or articles) on location sound that covers lav techniques extensively? I bought "Location Audio Simplified", but nearly every technique shown involves front loaded lavs, which I own COS -11D's, so it's not as helpful as I had hoped. Unfortunately I never had a mentor to walk me through some of the techniques and I would like some guidance on this subject specifically.

Thanks,

I totally understand that experience is the best way to learn something, but wouldn't I be ignorant to just do it without trying everything I can to better myself? I haven't been mixing for a very long time, but I also got hired on to something that I'd rather not screw up.

So to clarify, I need experience, but a book would be nice.

Thanks.

I hear you and figured you knew that. Like Mark and Rick, I think Thomas Popp's stuff is pretty good. But I've learned more from mentors and this board. Also Jay Rose's books are helpful, though not lavcentric.

Do some searches on this site. A couple/few years ago there was a burst of discussions about COS11 and general lav mounting ideas. Here are three discussions to start you off. Some good stuff here:
