  1. Thanks Jim! I'm using the PSC RF Mulit SMA. It lives in the bottom of the bag to the right side as you're wearing it in the same cavity as the receivers. There's a lot of room in there with the receivers being so small. I'm not familiar with Stridsberg. I'll have to look it up. I looked up Stridsberg. Which model do you use with what wireless?
  2. Nomad 10 with four Lectro LRs. There's usually a Lectro D4-T in the front pouch but I took it out for the moment.
  3. So they discovered a certain someone didn't know what they were talking about? Good for you!
  4. It was a busy time for all involved. I was just giving you some grief. I was at the Convention Center for nine days leading up to the day of the Super Bowl so there was really no time to get together anyway.
  5. I don't think I'll ever live this down! LOL! I just found out that Fox's Emmy submission video for technical excellence has this towards the end.
  6. So they have full fidelity audio on two of the cameras they could edit with and they still aren't happy? Was the second person in the interview so noisy that he couldn't edit around the undesired sound? Didn't anyone else who was listening have an issue with the offending noise? Sorry this happened but it seems as though some one threw you under the bus.
  7. I'm with you Dave. I have the person place the holder between the bra strap and the body with the clip facing out. I find it shows less and is more secure so you get less movement noise.
  8. They want to be sure he never gets off pattern!
  9. I had a Marantz PMD 661 that I bought from them modified. It sounded great!
  10. Cool, thanks for the info!
  11. So that would mean that a Sennheiser G3 IEM could also get signal from an IFBT4 I would think. How about from a UM400?
  12. My first stereo system had a Dynaco 40 watt amp. Not a kit. It really sounded nice!
  13. Try a separate power source for the amp to see if the rf is coming from the power distribution. What brand is the amp and where did you get it? I've been thinking about an amp for my Nomad.
  14. That's the reaction I've had to the Hide a Mic bra mount as well. It does take some explaining to be sure they get it right. I've found that if you run the mic underneath the center strap of the bra and clip the mic on with the clip part of the mount facing out its much quieter and less likely to show the clip through the blouse. Of course I illustrate this to the subject so they can do it themselves.
  15. https://alclair.com Custom in ear monitors. 20% off through November 26th. Many of my colleagues here in town use these and love them.
  16. They would likely have the tips Rado linked at a hobby store that carries RC planes, cars, etc.
  17. What a great performance and reminder of what's possible when you keep it simple and have great talent. Love the little boy getting into it and then being calmed down with just a gentle touch on the neck from Ernie, and the complete natural reaction to the performance.
  18. Just to give you some ideas. I use this with my rig.
  19. Heil dynamic mics are a good choice for pod casting.
  20. The weight of the Piano doesn't bother me at all. As was stated its lighter than the Rycote offerings. It also gives more wind protection with shorter fur so it can be placed a little easier without getting into the shot.
  21. I don't use my MK41 outdoors so I only have a regular foam for it. I'm looking at the Bubblebee spacer or similiar for it so I can use it outdoors too. I own the PIA-1 for my CMIT and I love it! I mainly keep the short fur on it unless I'm using it indoors, then I just use the cloth inner skin. I have a higher wind furry that is no longer offered and is shorter than the two high wind versions listed. I've only had to bring it out three or four times in very high winds. Otherwise the Piano short fur is enough.
  22. Of course! I've got them on CBS this coming weekend!
  23. I use a CMIT-5U for most outdoor work and the Schoeps hyper for indoor work. The CMIT can work well indoors as well as long as the acoustics are reasonable. I would also recommend a quick disconnect on your pole so you can quickly switch from one to the other. You can minimize your distance to the subject if you're not connected to camera. You can take an angle that will get you closer without getting into the shot. It might not be the ideal angle but getting the mic closer will sound nicer than a more distant pickup. Especially with the more forgiving Schoeps. Outdoors has fewer reflections so you can actually get away with more distance from the subject as long as you have a quiet mic that you can boost the gain on without getting a lot of hiss. I'd put your lav on the principle person speaking on its own channel so you can be sure you have what you need from him/her, but boom the whole group with that mic on its own channel. Another thought: Get good wind protection for the hyper so if you have a larger group outdoors you can take advantage of the wider pattern. The dead side of the mic will be you friend if you're competing with farm machinery. Booming from underneath although not ideal can often help with extreme background noise and save you from shadows as well.
