So, finally we found what's the problem (I hope). We have switch off the connection between UltraSYNC ONE's (Master & Slave Mode) and convert it as stand alone; taken the timecode from Mix-Pre 10 II.

So you're using the second DIN connector instead of the usual main DIN connection on the USO?
Yeap, the second DIN - SYNC. What I have notice, between LTC & SYNC, the level is different.
LTC has Standard, Low, MIC while SYNC has Standard & High.
LTC Standard is around -15 while SYNC Standard is -20 at levels. With that setting, post says it's 1-2 frames off in some scenes.
Next episode of #problemsolving (lol) will completely eliminate the "Server" and "Client" status (so basically the communication between ONE's) and use it as standalone units taken TC from Mix-Pre 10 II. Let's see.

Hi Philip & David,
Both camera & UltraSYNC is up to date.
We have changed the output routine from LTC to SYNC, post says it's 1-2 frames off now.
I am done. Hahaha

The drift even when we have UltraSYNC ONE plugged (and not touching) to BMP. Post is complain a lot, but nothing we can do further. We have tried every possible tweaks. Grrr

Something that puzzle me, we are using 3 UltraSYNC ONE (two for camera, one for Mix-Pre 10 II) and post says it's 4 frames off. Everything set at 25 FPS. Can someone tell producers, not using those cameras for "real jobs"? I hate them (lol).

Hello Folks, This is my first post on JW Sound.
Not using brand names, what essential equipment do you feel a beginner location sound person needs to own or rent for most jobs that pop up last minute?
-How many channels does your mixer/recorder need to accept most jobs?
-How many channels of wireless?
-How many shotgun mics or indoor mics do you keep on hand?
-How long is your first boom-pole? Do you start with two? Do you also keep stands?
-Timecode, Slates, IFB, Camera Hops, ENG Breakaway cables?
I know that many folks started with just a boom plugged into a handheld recorder and can rent additional gear when necessary, but it seems expectations have risen.
By my calculations, even a kit with 2-channels of UHF wireless and two wired mics can cost around $10K. A kit with 4-channels of UHF wireless, IFB, and camera hops can quickly reach $25K. Depending on the kit and your hustle, you could theoretically make up the purchase cost within a year.
-So my last two questions are, how many of you feel it is necessary to take out a small loan to start in the business and is it worth it just to apply to those last minute jobs that require a "standard" inventory package?
Thanks,
~Ken
Hi Ken,
1. When I was started, four channels was ok. Eight channels was expensive thing. Now, eight channels is something pretty standard for recorder.
2. Four wireless is ok, if you want more you can rent.
3. Mostly two shotguns. That's a big discussion which brand (lol).
4. I am using Ambient QS boompole, 5.2m, but I am doing mostly scripted work.
5. Timecode, IFB, camera hop is necessary.

It's not a good idea to start with a loan, especially that time. You buy only when you needed something or when you have the money in your pocket - playing safe business risk here. I know, US market is different from mine, but others can guide you better from me for that market.

If you want to discuss further which type of brands, please let me know.
Thanks,

My question: SFX capturing has to be done during filming?
-
50mW here, Greece. Very rare to go 100mW, but sometimes is necessary.

That little kid, is amazing!
Amazing pre-amps!

If I had to upgrade something, that will be for better wireless system.
633 is fine recorder and easy to use.
Do you need more than six channels in your workflow?

You must be the only person to buy the RX200 slot receiver
If I had to invest in Camera Link that will be:
- SRX220
- TRX743Not sure why Zaxcom has decided to discontinued SRX220, but it is a cool piece of hardware.

Hi,
+1 for above comments
PS. If you don't have money to buy better microphone or acoustical treatments, then fill the room with staff, especially blankents etc. This will destroy early reflections, don't wait to be like pro studio. Search on Google (or your preferred search enginee) about pro voice over people how they make her/his own way.

The bag itself from ORCA is very heavy.
ORCA must think about to make ones with less weight.

Still 1 frame off with stand alone mode from UltraSYNC ONE.
First time we experience such a problem, only with this camera.
Hmmm
