Sound Guys Solutions available in all analog and AES options.

We did do a custom run of some 10 bank charges. We do have 4&8 bank charges in the works but unfortunately have had a delay in our molded parts. We do currently have a USB powered 2-bank charger available. This does charge the batteries simultaneously. We've had a couple clients use these and a USB charging hub to make multi chargers.

The Orca is by far the smallest, but because the innner body and tips are made of steel it's actually heavier than the Sound Guys and the Ambient. In all honesty I'd be amazed if someone could tell the boom was 1oz heavier.... The main difference in all 3 come down to functionality and personal preference.

If you would like to try a Sound Guys Solutions quick release please let me know and I'll send a demo out to you. Gene@sound-guys.com https://www.sound-guys.com/#BOOM_QUICK_RELEASE

Looks good. Cost?

It's not on any of the websites yet because it's not officially released. Gene

These will be shipping in 1 to 2 weeks. Allows for the antenna to be in the up and up or down position. Available at any Sound Guys Dealer, Retail $28

Sound Guys 2.4GHz Amp Update As many of you know the amp we've been working on for over a year unfortunately will not be available through Sound Guys Solutions and or any of our dealers. The company manufacturing the amp for us had falsified FCC documents for this particular product. They have unfortunately no interest in correcting this issue. Not being the manufacture I can't do anything with the FCC about it either. The amp will still be available on a site yet to be determined. As a note 90% of the amps on the market are not FCC approved and if they are, they are designed to work with a specific piece of equipment. For example any amplifier that comes as a kit must be used as a kit. The moment you remove one of the pieces it is no longer FCC approved. The end-user is overall responsible to make sure they are operating within the FCC rules, not so much whether or not an amp is FCC approved. The amp we had designed works great in a bag and even better on a cart. In a bag it does not play nice with an M-216, but I had multiple beta test users using it with a BST-75/216. On the cart I haven't had any issues whatsoever. If anybody is still interested in purchasing the amp please email me and I will forward you the purchasing information as soon as I have it. Thank you gene @ audiodept.com Gene Martin

On the prototype units the antenna SMA is reverse polarity. The final units are standard SMA for the antenna

We're scheduled for release very end of December or 1 week of January. We'll keep you posted. Gene

If you still need custom cabling we can help you out. Please email drew@audiodept.com Gene

Please email me with the quantities and connector type need and we'll get a price to you. gene@audiodept.com Gene

At Audio Department we handle custom cables a little different than other locations. We don't bill for the parts and the labor, we bill as if the cable was sitting on the sales floor. Obviously if you just purchased the connectors and do the work yourself it cost less.

Please email drew@audiodept.com. He'll be able to get pricing for you once we know exactly what you want. We are working on a custom cable page that will provide pricing. Gene Martin

GAGaudio, If you're still looking for the AES cable we can help you out with whatever you need. Obviously everyone else mentioned does great work as well. Gene Martin Audio Department drew @ audiodept .com

Alex, Please let me know what you need. We should have everything to get you covered. gene@audiodept.com

Dan, we still manufacture both versions of the lav-bullet. Let me know where you purchased it from and I can give them a call just to make sure they understand both versions are still available. Thanks Gene Martin

Here is a picture of my bag while filming the movie. This was before the Zaxcom QRX and Mic plexer came out.

The Sennheiser MKE-1 or MKE-2 Platinum has a kevlar wire the same size as the B6. The head/capsule of the MKE-1 is only a little larger than the B6 as well. Gene Martin Audio Department
