Believe it or not I was a soundman in college back 66,67(vietnam veteran,ranger).
I did Glen Yarborough,Johnny Mathis,The Turtles live on stage and I had pro-mics
hanging from stage ceiling that I would pot up/pot down as the artists moved on
the stage. Now I am really excited about the sound carts you fellows use and I've
got to learn more about how you set them up. My stage mics were fed in to pro-
Ampex decks via a Collins sound board and I sat inside a professional sound room.
Here's my question- Is it practical to have mics at different locations on a film set
and actually pot up/pot down with the action. I had an idea about doing this on a
production that I want to shoot. Does anybody in the sound business ever use this
technique?
