  1. Very curious to hear more about this. Thinking of getting an earwig system and like the price point of this vs the Roger Phonak 2.4ghz one. How discrete is the ear piece?
  2. Really liking this setup. What antennas are you using? And how you liking them with your wideband wisy?
  3. This looks clever! Which thinktank bag is it? Do you mind sharing more of the mods you’ve done and some additional photos?
  4. I might take you up on that Paul! Are you LA / SoCal based? And what’s the frequency range of the ones you have?
  5. Now that a few years have past what’s everyone’s thoughts on these guys? From what I’ve heard they do work with Sennheisers and Lectro in the right comparability mode. I’m guessing that also means they would work with Wisy transmitters. Can anyone confirm any of this from their use?
  6. Great write up Michael. How’s the range been for you with 2mw? Also how quickly do they power back up from sleep and are ready to transmit again? Thanks for doing all this extensive testing. There’s not much real world info out on these.

  8. Good point. Though I'm curious why the guy on the gearslutz forum had the same problem with Audio Ltd wireless and b6's, VT 506, and VT 403 mics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Yesterday I boom opped a commercial that had the strangest interference occurring over with wireless systems. It was a faint, fast, rhythmic rumble. It took the mixer and I all day to figure out the problem. Luckily the boom was clean, but it damn near drove us nuts trying to figure it out. We changed frequencies about a dozen times, which seemed to help in the short term, but right when we went for a take the sound persisted. We swapped it cables, and several other 'fixes'. Heck we even wondered if it was the boom acting as some kind of antenna because it would coincide when I raised my boom up for a take. Turns out it was the camera's range finding system! They were using an ultrasonic range finder that was overloading the mic capsules of the Lavs. We would only hear it during the take because that's when the damn thing was pointed directly at the actors. Upon further testing we learned it was a purely acoustic problem with the small diaphragm mic being bombarded by the ultrasonic waves. The camera department said they had never heard of that issue before. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I searched all around the web and all I could find was one forum on gearslutz. Here's the link for the curious. https://www.gearslutz.com/board/remote-possibilities-acoustic-music-location-recording/911813-sound-killed-arri-udm-1-ultrasonic-measurement.html Figured I'd posted about it so more info on the topic could be known. Was shooting on the Arri mini. Attached to camera was the Arri UDM - 1 sonic range finder. We were using countrymen b3's and Sony UWP- D11 wireless. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
