  1. The 5 pin to 5 pin cable will work well, and you can jam either one depending on your need.

  3. I have a day of interior interviews coming and yes there will be air handlers, I will give SNR a try. Thank you Larry.
  4. Really, I did not know that, I don't believe it is discussed in the manual. Tell us more o great retired Lectro maven.
  5. I was helping my sweetie find a new car when we discovered the Honda HRV on the lot -a bigger than the Honda Fit, a bit smaller than the CRV. Incredible amount of space inside and fun to drive.
  6. You could describe what happened and explain why you feel you were ripped off ?
  7. I was scanning the FB Production & Post-Production Sound for Film/Video group and found a discussion on Aligning phase in the polyphoninc dialog tracks. A lot of it was a rehash of a jwsound posting, but part of this reply popped out at me. I use Premiere/Audition, and when you Merge Clips (audio waveform matching just like PluralEyes), the waveforms are automatically time aligned to the best of the computer's ability. For mics that don't move a lot, that means you can blend them, no problem. I often throw down a plant mic for the purpose of giving me a 'reverb/room' track that I can blend into the lavs, which I find can often help match to the boom. If you instead use timecode or a camera scratch mix to sync your sound, you'll get phase issues either from speed-of-sound * distance or digital latency, all of which can be compensated for either with input delay on the day, or dealt with in post. Would all of the polyphonic tracks be aligned to be in phase ? Seems unlikely to me. Al

  9. >When it goes into Premier it is -30 <
  10. I believe Mike refers to "0" dbu hash mark on the 633 screen, we previously referred to this as -20.
  11. Jeff Thank you for all the BS you have to go through to keep this site humming along
  12. I went from a Ford van to an Honda Element - I also downsized how much stuff I haul around. Love the Element.
  13. I have a few comments that I will not post - I fear the wrath of Jan
  14. I have always had a sweet spot for songwriters, they might not always hit the note perfectly, but the feel drips off of them. Happy 73rd Birthday Tony Joe White
  15. Hal Needham was the stunt mans stunt man. I got to work with him when he directed an episode of BL Stryker in the early 90's. What I recall was he had 2 hearing aids and they would suck in any sound available, he would actually shut down craft service " because you are making too much g-damn noise over there. He was integral to the development of the Shotmaker camera car and I do hope someone wrote down some of the stories he would tell. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/hal-needham-stuntman-director-dies-651039
  16. Charlie, I know you are out there When does it ship ? Al ( kept the secret )
