Thank you this is great. I will check into it.

Ha! I know right it seems so obvious but number one - I’ve been burned a couple times not turning it on in a hurry, but then number two I get burned when I actually could use that back up with Timecode properly and i forget that i didnt do the manual power sequence - like yesterday. i own a furman rack power unit that does exactly this 3x levels of power delayed in sequence. Until howy comes thru - there has got to be a better way! Hoping for something clever diy

osa started following Loon boom bits , BDS output -> delay power on and Cleaning white DPA 6060’s safely

Curious if there is an easy diy solution to delay powering a device from bds with an adjustable time. When i power on my kit, camera link tc starts at zero, jams, but bu files stay at zero. Talked to howy about this and i believe a fix is in the works. Just looking to power camera link to power on 5sec or so after mixer -Ken

Thanks! I am good w general cleaning - its these white mics and absorbing “dies” from contact w older black foamies. Could be black moleskin as well. Oddly specific. It seems to imbed deep in the white cable material. Luckily only a few spots and i am now cautious about how i am keeping the white ones stored. Curious if anyone has found a fix to deep clean safely

I have some white 6060s that unfortunately touched non-color fast black foamy in a few spots. Wondering if there are any tricks to get them back to white without damage? I have a feeling i am stuck

PSC for the win! I ordered two replacements for this loon cabled pole and also another PSC pole i have. I’m glad I did. They’ve changed the design a bit and it’s an absolute lock fit in the loon pole compared to the previous version:
-
is your loon pole cabled? I have a VDB as well, but I hadn’t considered trying it only because the cable output is configured differently at the top of the pole on my VDB. Here is a photo of PSC on the left and my VDB on the right. In the past, I have had that rattle movement at the top that you speak of. I am curious if the cut out all the way to the top even on the PSC affects how tight the grip is. with my PSC spud there is just a very tiny bit of wiggle, but nowhere near as bad as it was With the factory Loon spud.
-
I got home and tried a PSC spud from an older pole I have and its a perfect fit. Even better than the original you are right the longer tube and seemingly stronger design at the threads is a perfect upgrade. I had troubles with the original Loon spud having a slight wiggle. This is totally solid now. Going to call around and see if I can find a few for backups and replace in my other pole. Thanks for the tips!
-
This is great thank you. I have a bit of machining tools so i think i can drill n thread in a new stud and will also measure and see what size i might replace with via other manufacturers
-
My beloved Loon took just the right hit today to snap the spud. Had since 2008 and it is wild to see it last this long. Curious if anyone knows if parts still exist somewhere or if another brand is a worthy replacement? I have some various brands of boom poles. I can try spuds when I get home.

Originally i thought the ebay ones “you get what you pay for”. After trying them and shortly after ordering a bunch more, these ebay versions work so well i can’t tell the difference. I now have them on every antenna and cable where applicable and it makes quick swaps a breeze

Mini XLR pin configs for c70 black magic etc
osa replied to osa's topic in Cameras... love them, hate them
Great thank you both my thoughts exactly. I see on the c70 you can read the pins numbered on the female side standard to these TA3 connectors where 2 n 3 positions are swapped vs full size XLR. But 1-1 / 2-2 / 3-3 makes perfect sense -
Making some cables for a friend of mine out of town. Looking at the manual for a C 70 I don’t see the pin diagram. Does the mini XLR connector follow the pin numbers on the connector or does it follow the pin configuration of a standard XLR?

Thank you i finally did this repair. Followed your lead on a similar kit and wow what an upgrade with The DSP features. Really appreciate the input! The sound is amazing and way more flexible speaker in general now
