Hey Fellow Sound People. I own a small rental house in the Dominican Republic and even though things slowed down alot this year, we have been able to turn a small profit. I want to make some sort of branded christmas gift to the guys that rent regularly from us to thank them for their support. I was hoping to get some ideas from the people here. I would love for it to be something usefull on set and hopefully soemthing I can get our logo on. Some of the ideas I have are the following: One of those caps that have sun protection for neck. Expendables pouch with basic expendables in it. Small adapter kit with some basic adapters in it. Any and all ideas welcome. Keep in mind we cannot break the bank doing this. Quantity will probable be 10-15 max. Thanks in advance!

I am connecting my new nano to my computer, a mac running Sierra 10.12.1. I have downloaded Ambient Lockit toolbox both 5.0 and 5.10 and the software does not recognize the Nanos. What am I missing here?

Anyone get theirs yet? Thoughts?

Hey guys, Just looking for some info on this. Im using 2 pairs of 211s and 200b. With 2 Sanken cos11 that came from the shop wired for lectro LMa. Im getting a weird noise like harmonics way back in there. Do i need to rewire for the 200b? Is the wiring different? I read something that made me think that. I bought the lectros used and had never used them, so i don't know if the noise is normal but i doubt it. I also have to keep the trim on the 200b very very low. Thoughts, Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help guys! We ended up shooting at 32 fps because tdouble speed was too fast for the actor to keep up with, looked great, seemed like the right speed, and they will be doing adr, they just needed to get the speed right. Sent from my iPad.

ok they are doing 48FPS not 100. just had a meeting with the director. have the wild lines recorded, halving the time of the audio by TCE in protools seems to more than double the speed. Is that the correct way of doubling the speed? it just seems so much faster. Derek, are you saying that if i record the audio with the actor talking at normal speed @96khz and thenplay it back @ 48khz it will sync with the video played back at 24fps?

Good observation jay, the will be slowing it down. Sent from my iPad.

A client is shooting a commercial and wants to do a shot with dialog at 100 frames. The producer tells me that they have done it before and that they record the audio normally, then speed it up and have the talent practice it at that speed so that when they bring it down, it matches, sounds crazy to me, any ideas on what to do here, it would make more sense to me to record audio normally and then slow it down. Any ideas? Sent from my iPad.

so... if i get the new PSC Life PO Pelican battery, could i use a remote audio hotbox and a 10amp charger simultaneously for uninterupted power supply? How would i wire this?
-
Soundman, can you describebthe setup with the hotbox a little more? I was thinking of going with the hotbox, does it work as a ups? How do you charge the battery?

I have a cart with 788t/cl8, blackmagic smartview duo monitors, rackmount venue fully loaded and samson headphone amp. Trying to avoid spending 1500 for meon life, whats a good option for me? I would like something that could be used as uninterupted power supply in case i get disconnected by mistake, and also if i have to work w/o genny. Any thoughts?
-
I love the monitors, the only drawback is only hd sdi, and only controls via software and even then very basic.

Hello again all! I am looking to power a small cart with 788t/Cl8, Rackmount Venue w/ 6 VRS, Blackmagic Smartwiew Duo monitors, Lacie Rugged FW HD(powered from 788t). I was wondering if these battery chargers with power supply switch to battery automatically if power is lost. I was thinking of using it as a sort of backup for AC shortages or shots that dont use the generator. I am planning on using a remote audio hotbox v2 and using the charger as its power supply and battery connection. I as looking at these for this purpose: Switronix NC-2LJ 2-Position NP-1 Type Simultaneous Charger and IDX JL-2PLUS 2-Channel Fast Charger I would really appreciate any thoughts on whether or not this is possible and would be a good system.

whats the juicer?

Does anyone have any experience with GoalZero solar panels, their larger solutions look like they could work for a small cart. Is there any reason why they wouldn't work? check out this link http://www.goalzero.com/large-extreme.html

788t, Ambient Radio TC Slate, Alexa. Best TC Mode and Workflow help
Beta Sound replied to Beta Sound's topic in Workflow
I'm not a fan of wireless timecode at this time. I'm not convinced it makes more sense than just jamming or using an external timecode box on the camera. 24-hour run makes the most sense to me. I will definitely do a workflow test some days before the shoot. I do not plan to use the wireless timecode for ext sync, just for jamming purposes, I figure its easier to get the slate over to my recorder, re-jam, and then jam the camera via wireless link, once jammed, flip off the receiver and be done with it. Or do you think it would be better to have the transmitter on my 788t to jam the slate from? wont the slate hold sync all day long? I know it might be overkill, I'm buying the slate next week and could use some money left over... should i just buy the Denecke TSC instead? -
ARRGGGH, I was just going to buy a 788t! Starting a project on the 19th! Definitely worth considering since i also need a bunch of lectro gear and am planning to put alot of this purchase on my credit card .... this is just like when i got my 744t and 788t came out 2 months later.

Hey Guys, Back again for some insight. Starting my 3rd feature and we are going to be using the Alexa along with my 788t and an Ambient radio slate with one receiver. We will not be using lockits, so my plan is to have the ambient receiver on the camera and jam the slate from my 788t as much as possible. What mode is the best to work in? If we go with free run or 24 hour run, could i keep the wireless receiver off and just instruct the AC to flip it on for jamming purposes? Should we do a rec run setup? I know the camera guys wont be thrilled about me controlling camera record functions. I hear the Alexa keeps time code really well. BTW, I will not be sending a scratch track to camera.

Thanks for all the responses guys!
-
Any reason NOT to go with the WM? Seams like the same as SMQV only water proof...
-
Guess Im just cheap, 650bucks just for the powersupply.
-
How are you using the DC power on the mixwizzard, looking at this board but worried i will have to use A&H DC power supply.

Hey guys! Im in neighboring Dominican Republic with full kit, if for any reason any of you guys are busy for any of those jobs, please recommend me.
