  1. Gotham Sound made a video with Giovanni Lima Jr. showing how he mics cars for Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee:
  2. I’m still naïve when it comes to redundancy – any recommended second recorder setups for bag work? The only solution I can think of is both recorders being fed by a 302 or similar mixer, which can’t be great, since it’s just another single point of failure. I can imagine that a cart setup has multitudes more possibilities, but I’m not at that level yet.
  3. From the product page: Not exactly simultaneous multi-card recording, so I assume that means no protection if the primary media (the SD card) fails during a take or before the sound files have finished copying over. But it’s most of the way there. Personally, the stakes on my shoots aren’t high enough yet, so the auto copy feature is good enough to me – the MixPre-6 having no redundancy at all made me hesitate to even consider it. After waiting for reviews and demoing it, I’d imagine this thing will be on my upgrade list, as a good stepping stone between where I’m at and the 633. Even then, would be handy to keep around as backup and a lightweight setup.
  4. Really cool to hear about ambient booming, Mike. Another technique in my toolbox.

  6. I knew this, but I’m wondering what booming preferences would make someone go with a side cable exit, rather than a side XLR connector.
  7. I’m relaxing by window-shopping for boom poles today, and I stopped by Ambient’s site. After watching their rather amazing Quickpole product video, I noticed that they offer an interesting flow-through, side exit option for their cabled poles. Here’s a coiled-cabled QXS with that option: The only cabled poles I’ve used so far have all had built-in male XLR connectors, so it led me to wonder: What advantages would a cable exit offer over a fixed connector?
  8. Yikes, it’s already marked as sold.
