I have a copy of Producing Great Sound for Digital Video, second edition. It comes with a CD. The CD has tutorial tracks, diagnostics, and demonstrations. Would this be an updated version of what you have?

Mic cable nics, rubber cement or equivalent recommendation?
berniebeaudry replied to B_Van_Deusen's topic in Do It Yourself
That looked promising but looking at the reviews it was mentioned that it drys hard. What hard means pertaining to rubber could just mean that its not tacky when dry. Hopefully it will still have some flexibility when cured. -
Haven't done what you're asking but Parts Express has lots of speakers and speaker parts. https://www.parts-express.com

I beta tested these and gave the unit a few good slams on the concrete floor of my basement. Didn't break anything.

Thanks for the input Phillip! I never re patch my BDS unless I'm adding something and I could have all of the outputs available as cables for adding whatever, whenever and still take up less room in the bargain!

Nice work and designs! I'm working on a hard case design for my SD 833. I have an extra Remote Audio BDS v2 and was going to use it in my build. As small as it is I'm not liking the space it takes up when you connect the cables to it. I'm toying with the idea of modifying it and having hard wired leads coming into and out of it, or just using the parts inside and eliminating the box altogether. Of course the circuits would have to be protected, and its not a perfect solution so I'm curious what others think of this idea.

19ms Delay with wireless Mic kit.....?
berniebeaudry replied to JeffWWaldrop's topic in General Discussion
Premier can do subframes I believe. -
I get the impression that your producer is unhappy with clothing noise on your tracks. Sometimes wardrobe is just noisy no matter what you do. You can likely hear it on the boom as well. You were seeing the wardrobe for the first time and it would seem they didn't provide choices that would be less problematical. Feeling rushed isn't ideal especially when the clothing choices are a problem. I think you did the best you could under the circumstances you outlined. Lots of great advice in the previous comments. The only thing you can do is be as prepared and organized as possible and try not to let them pressure you so much when you need more time to get things right. You are a department head and deserve the opportunity to do your job to the best of your ability as well.

How do the lavs sound? The ability to get reverb under control in post has really gotten pretty good. Izotope, Accentize, Acon Digital, Zynaptiq are all decent options to try. Of course you want to do what you can on location but its often not practical or effective. I have all of the programs mentioned. I'd be happy to do a test for you and see how effectively the reverb can be reduced.

416T noise problem - repair? upgrade?
berniebeaudry replied to charibancho's topic in General Discussion
Email Pete. I'm fairly certain the upgrade will solve your problem but he can tell you for sure. I had a Schoeps upgrade done by him and his work is impeccable! He made an over 20 year old mic sound as good as the new ones. Its so affordable why not get all of your mics upgraded and free yourself from those barrels? -
Shure Axient Digital very impressive
berniebeaudry replied to justanross's topic in General Discussion
Fox sports has been using Shure this year for the sideline reporters and parabolic mics. Really good sounding gear. -
Shure Axient Digital very impressive
berniebeaudry replied to justanross's topic in General Discussion
They used to have a body pack size receiver in their analogue range. They discontinued it. Its range was very impressive. -
I attended this workshop early in my career (over 30 years ago). At that time I went to Rockport Maine where the college is located, and it was a three day visit. I wish Mark had been the instructor then.

Sounds like a bad ground. Something loose could certainly cause a noise like this.

Piggy backing on the winter apparel scenario coming up in the colder climates. Fleece makes a really good sounding wind barrier. I did a skiing shoot years ago and I put the lav in the neck gators both talent were wearing. Twenty mile an hour winds and downhill skiing. What could go wrong? You have to test to make sure you're not muffling the mic, but if you do it right its pretty transparent. BB

Such smart people we have in this forum!

Interesting that the noise floor is an issue being that the specs are almost identical between the the MK4 and the MK41. I don't quite understand the MixAssist reference. Is it the combination of the MK4 and the Cut 1 that increases the noise floor? Or is the wider pattern picking up something environmentally that the MK41 isn't? Just got me curious as I might want to add that capsule someday. Trey, that interview sounds really great!

Along the same lines. Local TV news depiction. Newsrooms full of people, Fisher boom, mics clipped on wrong etc., etc.

Jerry does great work!

Glad to help! If you get stuck DM me.

Hi Michael! Take another listen I just improved it. So sorry for the passing of your mentor/friend at NBC! BB Thomas, Did you noise reduce this audio, or was it this clean to begin with? The rustle really wasn't that bad. More in between the words. A good fill edit might have been able to help as an alternative. What version of RX are you working with?
-
I just downloaded your files and will take a listen and an attempt to see if they can be fixed. Really not bad. Here are the fixed files. DeRustle got the rustle, spectral repair, got the low end thump that was more apparent after the rustle was gone, and declick for the click in the second file. RX6 advanced. I just redid the first clip. There was a little rustle left. I used a more extreme setting for derustle and selected more of the phrase and it also took care of the low end thump.
