Oh, the time back then when printers used to be computer periferals, not network devices calling home. HP is also infamous for icredibly overcharging ink.

Who stumbled over the observation test in the first image?

I just read some Doctorow and was here and it reminded me of some of the tools services dedicated our craft. https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/24/rent-to-pwn/#kitt-is-a-demon

There are cables like these that may or may not be useful to connect the units securely. Just two examples from aliexpress. The variety is huge but needs time to dig. The shortest version of the latter has 3cm length. There are lots of variations if you dig.

Sorry if its off topic, but where did you get these calipers?

Thx, did that fit? I Suppose you printed the male thread.

Thank you everybody and sorry for my bad vokabulary. I indeed meant the thread that is used to connect the outer shell with the cable outlet. (IIRC it was possible at some point to change the topic of a thread on this forum, seems that function is not active any more)

I guess the title says it pretty much. It seems to be 16mm wide, but is it metric and if, what is the pitch?

Hey Tim, thanks for your helpful remarks that make perfect sense. Your headwear idea reminds me of a little howto years ago from @LarryF iirc for a dipole made out of a coax cable to be straped on the harness. Thinking this further, the upper part of the dipole could grow on ones shoulders.

Whenever I got a bag with bowties, I hated them, as cables like to get caught in there. What is the use case of either system vs a set of good old wips cut to various length?

Tried that too same result.

Back then, I solved the issue by feeding the 788t from the Dtap on the Vmount battery (Bebob) and the Sennies from the plate. However, Sennheiser used a very poor cable on the battery eliminators, so the receivers got the batteries back after some time and the plate was obsolete.

Keep in mind, a particular focal length produces different results in different cameras, or better sensor sizes and whatever cropping the camera is configured to. Let alone anamorphic lenses. It is always good to get a feeling for the very setup on the current production. So if the lens changes from e.g. 32 to 24mm after rehearsal, you know you'll have to adapt. Getting a bit off topic, but be very careful to trust your glance on the focus pullers monitor. Their picture may be cropped / "zoomed in".

230km/h is a pretty irrelevant condition (but might show strudiness in a way), Pia/ni vs Cyclone is a much fairer comparison in terms of rumble than Pia/ni vs Nano as the former have both effectively decoupled baskets. This comes with the price of more weight. Im my experience Nano is in terms of rumble in the Modular/Supershield/Blimp camp. In my case, a CD size for the SuperCMIT. The "rumbling issue" there may be in general, that low rumbling due to the eliptic basket shape was promised and that the rather small sizes that compete with the Cosi may have special rumbling effects.

For what mics, length? What kind of wind conditiones? The original Rycote modular rumbles as well or more. Piano and Pianissimo rumble too but less than Rycote modular and I've seen minor mods at the joint fixture to improove it. Cinela does provide different fur length and a raincoat, the Nano comes with a well designed handle and is easier to fit to different mics and can loose the basket completely if you switch from outdoor to indoor sitiations. Cinela also may be a more sympathetic "designer run" company as of today. Pianissimo does have some parts that like to break, the Nano seems not to, though it may be still young to tell. (My magnets did come out, but that was not crucial) IMHO none is technically "better" but it depends on a number of considerations.

Thnx, yes

Digging through the manuals here. What is the connection path for frequency and gain control from the Maxx to the QRX?

My longest "dialogue" was somewhere above 70min on a fiction movie. That was due to the way the director worked with the teenage and children cast. Everything was running and then she let them be themselves until they forget they're on a filmset. Then she occasionally called in some directions. We shot a few scenes this way in 720p to fit the media cards in the Arri. Apart from that I had a few interview situations in that time range that are technically "dialogue".

Not sure, if these crosses are actually marks for the speaking ppl as this X shape is rather odd and T shapes were pretty much standard when I was in the news business. But then they where probably not placed by TV production ppl but the event ppl.

Just my 2ct. If I'd want to invest in a 2 to 8 channel wireless system, I'd probably pick the system/family that is most common in my city from rental houses and colleagues if I need temporary replacement or occasional expansion or rent out my units to others. In my case, that would be Wisycom.

Just some lound thinking... Cantar Mini... Aaton implement gain forward... We'll see, never hope while spending money

I've used an 8060 with it, in between an Xvive P1. This works. I have not deeply listened into it though or compared results with larger recorders.
