    Comtek Racks

    by Wandering Ear

    Comteks are great ….. and terrible. They make us money and keep clients happy, even though they don’t sound that good. They are one of the items that i have come to see as the “face” of my sound since every client on set will interact with them directly and often. So last year I finally got tired of buying cheap hanging shoe racks (they only last a few months) to store, organize, inventory, and distribute my comteks and I commissioned a set of custom hanging pouches. Now that i have them I can’t believe I didn’t do this before. I have both 8x and 12x versions (I do mostly commercial and scripted narrative). I hang one on the back of my cart, or move it to a mic stand to …

    EV 644 CardioLine

    by Michael Render

    This weekend, I was at a gear swap when I stumbled across this shotgun mic from the 1960s. The ElectroVoice 644 CardioLine. The only thing I know about them is that they are a dynamic shotgun! Does anybody know anything about these?

    Improperly used mics in movies and TV 1 2

    by JonG

    I didn’t take pictures but I just watched a couple of movies where mics were totally positioned wrong and it really made me laugh. One was the Dalton Trumbo biopic and the other was the Chess records film. Both show side address mics repeatedly being pointed at the source as if they were top address mics. Not to mention that some of the mics pictured had not been invented yet in some cases. I thought it would be funny to start a thread for people to post a screen shot whenever they see something like that!

    This was several scenes that was shot in one take, this actor was amazing! 95% of the lines were his. He did the speech over twenty times, I’ve never seen anything like it.

    Research on technical progress in the history of the sound department

    by Sebi

    Hey everybody! I have a little research question concerning production sound throughout the history of cinema since the first “Talkies”. This applies to sound-post as well but I’m aware that there are less people on the forum with that focus. I am actually still studying at university and while I’ve been pretty busy with projects over the past years I’m now focusing on finishing my master’s thesis. A main subject of it is the influence of technical progress in audio equipment on the storytelling through sound as well as the factor of limitations/constraints in creating sound design. Which effects did certain developments have on the work of production sou…

    A Case with character

    by Colin Heath

    I have been recently thinking about buying a pelican case for my gear. But i was walking through a antique store the other day and i stumbled over this case. I instantly fell in love with it, and then with looking at it i decided that it would be perfect to use to hold my equipment. It folds open as you can see in the images i attached and has a spot where i put some foam to hold my wireless. I made some quick dividers for the one side and added some extra foam for padding in some spots. I may change it but this works for now. As a plus, inside of the case when i bought it, was filled with boxed vacuum tubes, all sizes. Which was pretty cool. …
