I'd love a couple too. Many times I've had to remind people that my ears are a couple yards away on set and trying to whisper in my ear is a lost cause.

Allen & Heath QU-16 also looks pretty good, built in recorded (but no TC) unfortunately it uses a proprietary dSNAKE ethernet protocol over dante

the little guy isn't 4k… only 1080p, The new Cinema camera is 4K for $4K

Tom, I see your shwartz is as big as mine

It is amazing what people will sign/do for $100 cash

That's the one!

I'm actually a mod over at r/locationsound, that community is much smaller than JW, but it has some good stuff. You are all welcome to join us!

Now we just need MovieSlate and Timecodebuddy to understand ZaxNet

Read this on Thom Shafer's site "Another wonderful announcement is the integration of the Timecode Buddy system into a Denecke TS-3 slate. Seen to the left is a proof of technology version of the slate and it was fun watching all the Movie Slate iPads mirror everything the Denecke did. Providing real integration to what is fast becoming the information work flow engine on set. There will also be a version of the slate that displays scene and take numbers and when fellow mixer Dan Ostroff asked me to pose the question to TC Buddy if it was possible to generate that information from the sound cart via userbits they responded very quickly that that was a brilliant idea and shouldn't be difficult at all." http://www.televisionsound.com/timecodebuddy.html

Derek, I've also heard of the mythical 4073. Though I've never seen them stocked. You likely need to place an order from the usual suspects.

I was "lucky" enough to do a two camera BMC shoot this week, and to make matters worse, I was using the producers audio kit and he insisted on direct to camera, single system audio. - Probably a combination of my headphones and the long breakout cable run, but the HP out is quiet - Didn't have time to test this my self, but the producer insisted on brick-wall limiting the audio at about -10dBFS he said there are some super aggressive limiters onboard that really fight you when you hit it too hard - Also, no metering - Non-locking connectors I rolled a second recorder from my bag anyways but it is what it is. The DP and I commiserated at wrap about how we both hate the camera

Camera Link, IFB200, and Maxx? or is their something else too?

I use the Denecke TC Toolbox app, you can find a link to the app and a cable schematic on their website: http://www.denecke.com/Products/tcreaders/tcreaders.htm

I agree with Marc, also imgur.com (pronounced Image-er) and minus.com work very well

I'd also put money down that "WXLR" is a shout out to our esteemed solar loving host (also, Jeff, Eric beat me to the draw in posting this -- mine's over in Manufactures and Dealers -- so feel free to close and consolidate that thread as you please)

Rio Rancho, NM – April 1, 2013… Lectrosonics is introducing the world's first solar-powered wireless microphone transmitter, the WXLR. The new transmitter is based on the idea that today's solar cell technology is sufficiently advanced for use on portable electronic devices. The new WXLR was based initially on the previously introduced WM water-tight transmitter. Being fanatics, Lectrosonics engineers aimed to simplify the design even further and make the housing even more bullet proof by eliminating the battery compartments and associated doors altogether. While discussing solar power as a potential option, one engineer realized that solar insolation is almost exactly 1 kW per square meter or 0.65 Watts per square inch in full sunlight. Solar insolation is the available power from the sun that strikes the earth's surface after atmospheric losses. The WXLR case is 2.98" by 2.55" equating to 7.6 square inches. With new multiple-junction, single crystal gallium arsenide solar cells approaching 39% efficiency, a custom cell sized for the WXLR case could produce 1.92 Watts in direct sunlight. Since the unit only uses half a Watt to operate at the two lower power settings of 50 and 100 mW, there is more than enough power to run the transmitter and charge permanently installed internal Li-Ion batteries, even after overcoming small conversion losses. What really makes the concept workable is the 30% Federal Tax Credit for solar installations combined with the 10% State Tax Credits. The 10% tax credit is allowed by progressive states such as New Mexico and fortunately, New Mexico is where Lectrosonics is located. Lectrosonics has always been a leader when it comes to providing accessories for our customers to enhance utility and user experience. The first accessory, the WXLRMAG "supercharger", is a 10" magnifying glass that is used to concentrate the sun's rays onto the WXLR case, reducing charging time (vs. plain sunlight) from two hours down to 30 minutes. The user is cautioned that the WXLR will become extremely hot when charged in this manner. A special set of insulating gloves is included with the WXLRMAG. The second accessory, the WXLRNIGHT, is used when the WXLR must be charged at night or in rainy weather. It uses a 300 Watt OSRAM Ultra Vitalux sun lamp tanning bulb. This bulb with its stand and reflector can be plugged into any AC outlet such as those commonly found in hotel rooms and on sound mixer carts. This accessory charges the WXLR in approximately 2 hours and can charge 4 WXLR transmitters at once. Other accessories will be released in the near future. Lectrosonics intended to release the WXLR in time to coincide with the Vernal Equinox on March 20 (first day of spring) when the sun is directly above the equator. However, unforeseen supply issues caused a delay of 12 days for the introduction. MSRP: $2,395 for the WXLR, $79.95 for the WXLRMAG and $295 for the WXLRNIGHT. Spare bulbs are $90.

You might be able to do something with a Zaxconvert/Wave Agent workflow, but as far as I know, Zaxconvert can't interleave multiple *.zax files

dr-680 gets my vote… not top of the line, but I've been doing several projects with it

What do you all do with your spent disposable batteries at the end of the day? I have a number of Powerex 2700 that I primarily use, but inevitably disposables come into play now and then. I know there are laws, certainly in CA, that mandate they be recycled. I've been just tossing them in the bottom of one of my cases and forgetting about them. So, today I finally re-organized my gear and half filled a shoe box with dead AA's I'll be looking for a place in NYC to drop them off, but was wondering what you all do with yours

There are some HD SDI to Cat 5 Baluns out there http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=900333&is=REG&Q=&A=details

Hey Zaxcom, QRX400… all I'm saying

Bump?

Yeah, I looked on the countryman site too and could dig one up (though, I'm sure I could've look harder) So the clipping above from their PDF was an easy answer. I'm sure one of us could <hat> if really that interested
