  1. Don't have a clue what this will mean yet, but heads up. http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/news/94346acf8514d8fb/index.html Regards, Ty Ford
  2. Anyone have any experience with this?
  3. Yes. https://tyfordaudiovideo.blogspot.com/2015/04/rode-ntg4-and-ntg4-shotgun-microphones.html
  4. You have answered yourself, young Skywalker. Post. where even sounds recorded in stereo can be folded down to mono. Where discrete sound effects can be panned to the center. Smile and know that you know more than you know.
  5. None of our business......slow news day?
  6. http://www.alteros.tech/0484_0001_01_AlterosGTX.pdf Hmmmm
  7. Hi, Amidst the chatter and clatter of what to do when the door closes on the 600MHz band. Here's a reasoned response. Now for all of you still using 700 MHz.......well........you know. http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/site/16505e589e0be6c8/index.html Everyone's situation may be different. How do you see this situation and what's your strategy? Regards, Ty Ford
  8. It's weird. The above are on target. In a simple universe, transcoding mp3 file to wav files don't get you any advantage.
  9. Thanks, mr soundtrane. (Vinod) Interesting. 19 capsules......on separate tracks via USB to software? Well the Behringer X air live sound mixing system sends out 16 tracks via USB. I'd probably prefer the audio coming into Pro Tools, but could be persuaded otherwise. So these 19 capsules mounted on a ball; are they cardioid? They'd have to be to be directional enough to do what they claim. I've made some good Blumlein recordings - crossed figure of eights. Here's one. Maybe for surround ambience......prolly not for dialog. Yeah, I guess in the "Brother Where Art Thou" world of everyone standing around one side of a mic for one track, this makes sense. I'll reach out. Wonder if I can get one with all Schoeps capsules....
  10. Hi, I have a client who's a PC user and whatever he was using to record his SKYPE calls in split track wav files doesn't work anymore. DO you know of a PC software that does split track recording, records wav files and works with SKYPE? Thanks, Ty
  11. Depending on the specific environment and direction of off-axis sound sources, there might be a slight loss in HF response. See what happens over time. Regards, Ty Ford
  12. as I said elsewhere, no rf phantom, noisier than a 416. Outside maybe. Quiet inside dialog, no. Regards, Ty Ford
  13. I was referring to real life. The difference between 50 mW and 250 mW is not even close to 5 times. Add directional antenna arrays and you get additional distance.
  14. I think power (25, 50, 100mW, etc) is more about density (coverage) within an area than distance.
  15. I never owned an 1800. I get stuff to review and typically send it back after the review, otherwise my storage area would be bursting at the seams. I do have friends with them and they seem to like them. The System 10 is simpler to operate. If you need the 1800 features, then go that way. Regards, Ty
  16. I have two Audio-Technica System 10 with B6 lavs. They run in the 2.4 GHz band. I think they sound pretty nice. http://tyfordaudiovideo.blogspot.com/2015/01/audio-technica-system-10-update-more.html Regards, Ty Ford
  17. Eric Toline has doen this for me several times. "The link" is a 6 inch or less "shorty" that plugs onto the end of the lab and then into the G2/3. Ty Ford
  18. I've always considered the ME66 as "student grade" mics, along with the NTG1 and NTG 2. The NTG-3 is wider in pattern than the MKH416, but sounds good. But I agree, your next step should be a DPA 4017, Schoeps CMIT, Sennheiser 4060. Or maybe a DPA 4018 or Schoeps CMC641. Then you'll start hearing a difference on every piece of work you do.
  19. As a Mac user and S5 owner, it took me a bit to learn the secret handshake necessary to transfer files from the S5 to the Mac. I have to do that each time I want to start a transfer session. Just one more thing to remember. It's be nice if it was plug and play.
  20. Yeah, bad cable with occasional problems due to whatever would be my guess.
