Good enough for brief monitoring

No question..It definitely worth 

But do anyone think it is in fact helpful in Broadcast or Live situation ? slightly cut of hiss or rumble will help bit

I spent a week shooting in HK 10 years ago

 

I guess a lot of HDTV stations have eaten up the 500/800 areas by now

 

Best ask our HK member what frequencies he is using to avoid TV or from where you can rent

 

mike

as far as i can tell , anything above 700 mhz may be problem , i am using 500-650 mhz for 5 m 6 yrs here without any significant interference problem .But Hong Kong is a crowd RF area ( as i mentioned no one care the regulation on RF FREQ (many illegal operation of RF ), which u really need to have good gear esp RF filter for this 

u can probably using any freq if u want , there is law to reg this ,but no one enforce or care. We all do that in HK

I would like to turn to digital workflow , but i cant find any shop or brand selling the aes cable for Zaxcom nomad , Any hints i can find that ?Thanks, 

just plug the mic hard wire to the recorder ,and then turn on other suspect one by one ,You then find which one causing interference or it is self noise of the boom transmitter  

Are u power them in separate power source  ? Grounding sometimes problem off whining

Well he says it's not close (ie high SPL) so in this case I think a condenser would be as good if not better.

 

Though for high SPLs and transients good dynamics certainly have their place (I have an MD441 and would certainly like to pick up one or two RE20s).

 

Jez

yes u are right , guessing a Vocal condenser would help this, Telefuken has good bassy vocal mic or neumann 

u need dynamic mic , such as RE320 

The Zhd mode help in some shooting 

Looking for Sound man in Manila Philippines in Early May (still figure out what day it is )Half day shoot , Single head interview , feeding 3 camera

there is seldom rental here. But different brand got different store. What u looking for ? or We can meet and make friend . I based in HK , local born and raise 

So did anyone successful replace it or repaint by sennnheiser ? It seems will getting peel off bigger and bigger

Oktava has so many limitations that make their use unpractical for our trade. I have Oktava mics among others in my set, and quite honestly, Audix and AT are the cheapest useful ones one can get. Everything else is really unpractical and creates more issues than it solves.

 

I have the Sanken CS-M1 in my shopping list, it could be a good middle solution - do - it - all - run - n - gun mic.

my using exp on the CS M1  is bit hizzy on high pitch , and not really great headroom compare to dpa 4017 or Cmit. But overall worth more then the price, But would not be my primary mic 

if only indoor dial , rejection is not ur 1 st thing to look in , I really like my neumann km 185 sound .
