Saw this photo and thought the set-up could be ideal for recording lengthy oral history interviews. The goal is to encourage a relaxed conversational style with interviewees that may be intimidated by too much production (i.e., getting wired with a lav and/or sitting under an overhead boom rig). The set-up in this photo seems less intimidating with the mics placed off the eye line and a little further away (maybe 18"). My questions are: 1) What specific microphones would you use for this set-up? I'm assuming these are cardioid (super-cardioid) condensers with a pick-up pattern to allow some shifting of seated interview subjects? 2) Given the goal sta…

Watch out for those 🕵️♀️ http://sandlab.cs.uchicago.edu/jammer/ The video seems broken, the German tech news site Golem has it. https://video.golem.de/audio-video/24095/wearable-microphone-jammer.html However, the video is less interesting than the question, how this works... and on what mics.

Jim Feeley asked a question regarding an image I posted in a thread that was loosely about the H4n. I thought, instead of taking that thread completely off course I'd re-post the image here and answer the questions as best I could. Well... The bike setup didn't work as well as I thought, and so this isn't entirely a success story - but I was very glad I tried. Regarding samples, I'm travelling right now but I'll try to put some up in the New Year when I'm back. I ended up with a reasonably well isolated recorder so it worked out in that sense. The recorder in the image was also reversed to try to get the sounds of the rear of the bike. …

In 1973 I got to visit the Gunsmoke set. The executive producer was John Mantley, the episode was called "The Widowmaker". One day location, one day studio. The whole main street of Dodge City filled a soundstage complete with dirt floor and forced perspective scenes at each end of the town with the road leading out of town to the right so they could ride horses and wagons (buckboards?) thru the main street and of course stage high noon shootouts. Unfortunately I can't find the studio day photos but here are some of the location day. Gunsmoke 1 Camera & Sound Van reduced.tif Note the Nagra III and mono RCA mixer with 2 VU meters, one showing input level…

Because no bag is on the market for the Cantar X3 yet.... I designed my own. With a "little" help from professionals as 'De Herrieboerderij' aka Kees Schouten in Amsterdam witch helped me with the aluminium frame, and a my new friend Andrea Monti from The Guild of Holland, he made the leather parts. Because the AudioLTD rack3 with Rx2040's, like almost all receivers, is to high I made a little frame to hang a front bag from. This front bag, when sitting on the ground, blocks some faders/knobs/buttons. But when I carry the bag it drops 4 cm, and everything is accessible again. The two leather straps can be released quickly and all mic and line in's become accessible. Her…

If anyone in NYC is curious about experiencing an ambisonic speaker set up there is one at the Performing arts library in Lincoln Center. It's part of a really neat little show called sounding circuits. https://www.nypl.org/events/exhibitions/sounding-circuits-audible-histories

Sorry the cart is not configured yet, but you'll get the idea. Probably won't get it well dialed until this fall at which time I'll post a follow-up. Note the break-down feature and groovy roller-skate wheels on the top mod allowing me to roll it into my truck. I mounted the 01V and traveler so you can better see utility and scale. All (most?) of my electronics will stay on the top mod and all power stuff except distro will live below. 2-3U drawer will go under bottom mod full shelf. Still leaves room in the bottom mod for all my power needs. Still planning to keep a chase cart handy for larger jobs, but this will be a big upgrade for me. EB

Oh how the memories come back, gripping and lighting, rigging this or that, makeshift contraptions; besides the usual set of wrenches, this tool made life easier.

Bret Haller, son of the late, great Michael Haller (Production Designer) pulled an image from the Criterion release of "Harold and Maude." This was my first job working on a movie, the job that made me abandon my plans to teach sociology and pursue a career in movies. I was hired as a P.A. in the Art Department but after the movie and after the decision that it would be my life's work, I wanted to do something more technical than the Art Department --- so, it would be Camera or Sound (and it wasn't going to be Camera!). In the picture you can see Hal Ashby, Colin Higgins (standing), Bud Cort and the two stand-ins (though I don't remember their names). I'm working on g…
