Indeed the connection with the LC8 is via a USB-Binder cable sold with the unit. It is also powered by the USB. I don’t have this setup anymore as I am now fully Sonosax with the R4+, so I am not certain if you can map the buttons to other fonctions than pfl and select on the 833. I am quite sure that you can map the slate rec and stop buttons.
-
Indeed, and this has to be confirmed, but I think you can’t use two LC8+ or mismatch controllers on the 833.

Yes the LC8+ only control faders and only for the 1 to 8 first channels. You can’t control the gain and can’t “map” the tracks to the faders.

For me Cinela is a no brainer.

For those interested in lighter bags, there is the Laavu brand. Formerly sold by Kortwich years ago, they are available again with new models for modern recorders. (Nova, Cantar X3 , 888,… ) I have just bought the model for 833 + SL2 for my R4+ and RC8+ that fits perfectly. https://www.audiosense.be/en/laavu-833-sl-2-case-kor-833sl2 Compared to the old ones, these new models have several pockets added on sides and in the front. The build quality is exactly the same, at a very high standard. As there is no metal structure, the weight is kept at a minimum. I very recommend it.

Thank you all for these invaluable tips and experiences. I am interested by the light weight and the small collapsed size. But definitely the collars has to be smooth. So I’ll borrow and try one before placing the order. H

Hi everyone, I am looking for a new medium boom for doc shooting. I know well the old VDB ones, but am interested to know your real world experiences with their (quite) new quarter turn system. Is this system working well ? Not too loose, or too stiff ? Unfortunately I am a bit far from any dealer to try it myself. Many thanks for your help. Henri

I haven't done any scientific or rigorous comparative testing yet, but after Friday's update, my initial experiences show an improvement in range. I did a quick walk test with a Wisy and an A20 mini, both on whips, and the outdoor range seems comparable (40mw for the A20, 50 mW for the Wisy) . I'm waiting to have more real world experiences to say it's better, but for now, everything seems fine.....

If I am not wrong, the MCR54 comes already with a 32 MHz bandpass filter. That’s why, even if the frequency range is very broad, your 4 receivers needs to be tuned within this 32 MHz window.

Aaton has just announced that the Cantar Mini is now available with the 16 x 16 Dante Option. https://www.aaton.com/cantarmini

Some reseller might still have some: https://www.decibel.ch/fr/products/schoeps-blue-colette-set-5412.html

Indeed, if someone wants to sell a CL-12, I am interested….

Indeed, I am using the Wisy’s MCR54. The goal is certainly not to have a perfect mix, just a guide for editing before a proper audio post. My question was more about the added value of an 888 compared to an 833 with this +4 plugin. I know it’s pretty new, but if someone has already tried it, any experience will be valuable.
