  1. Hi Bud! No, it did not work. I've contacted the DPA support and they told me that I will need a new microphone. That DPA Slim has really slim chances of surviving few drops of sweat.
  2. Dear community, I am looking for above mentioned documents in english. Can you, please, help me find it. I know I can buy hardcopy on ebay, but a PDF will be good as well. I think there are few Nagra experts around here, but can't remember their names. Thank you!
  3. I need a backup 2 sets of Sennheiser G3 without lavs.
  4. Hi group! Can you recommend me a good audio rental house in Dublin? Thank you!
  5. Thank you for the link. Hopefully the solution will work for me.
  6. Dear group, few days ago, I had a gig where 2 dpa slims failed because the actor was sweating doing some excercises. I let them dry out, but one of them now sounds very thin, distant and has a lot of self noise. Before I send it to repair, do you have any suggestion how it can be fixed? Thank you! Hrvoje R
  7. Probably, it won't be on our shopping list, but I could not resist to post it here. When it’s not possible to have an experienced sound engineer on site, the d:vice™ can act as a ‘mini sound engineer in your pocket’. http://www.dpamicrophones.com/microphones/dvice?utm_source=DPA+Complete&utm_campaign=fe8196725d-WW%3A+d%3Avice+launch_25-April-2017_Broadcast&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_a141748c6e-fe8196725d-317003577&mc_cid=fe8196725d&mc_eid=f8806e2db6
  8. Thanks Constantin! It will be interesting to hear background story from Sennheiser, like is it just regular transmitter, or they needed to build one specially for that environment.
  9. Hi, I am just curious... Can somebody identify the wireless transmitter used in this video? Thank you!
  10. I agree with you. But that dealer or distributor was recommended to me by DPA Denmark. That's true too. I know where the fault is, so they probably will not charge me for diagnostics. What scared me was the price of repair which could easily climb to the price of a new mic if they spend two hours on it. That was my thinking, too. I will research other options.
  11. It is DPA in Denmark. When I asked for a 4071 repair, the local dealer told me they need to send it home to fix it. So total cost for me will be: 70 € shipping, 50 € diagnostics and 165/hour of repair = at least 285 € if they manage to fix the microphone within 1 hour. Sigh.
  12. Yes, VAS. Although it probably raises more eyebrows in our part of the world than elsewhere. But I am curious what our western Europe based soundies have to say about it. BTW, I consider that information relevant, since I got it from local DPA dealer. http://www.sonus.si/en
  13. You are lucky. I think it is good to know that DPA charges 165 euros per hour for the repairs. Only 50 euros for diagnostics.
  14. Hi there! I am setting up a laptop (Ubuntu OS) for audio data backup and creating sound reports. Does anybody know what would be Wave Agent equivalent for Ubuntu OS? Thanks a lot! And happy New Year!
  15. I think it will record discrete M and S signals as long as you keep them "pre-fade". (input to iso routing on sd 633)
  16. Hi, just an idea, try to pair input 1&2 as an MS pair and monitor with LR. I have SD 633 and it works for me, since I did some documentary jobs in similar way. Hope that helps.
  17. And look at the directional pattern response picture, to me it looks like a skull

    Theremini

    That's not Theremin, it's Tannerin (much easier to play): I am not sure that will be an upgrade. That pitch correction feature is a very clear sign where the Moog company is going.

  20. Hi Imphy, It reads in SD633 user manual that 633's line inputs are suitable for connecting microphones if you are willing to capture very loud sounds. The line ins provide phantom power, too both 12 and 48v. Here's the quote form the manual: For use with phantom-powered condenser microphones only. Provides 48V or 12V phantom power, but at a line-level gain range. Useful for recording extremely loud sounds.
  21. +1 I think that carefully choosing analog side of the transfer will make bigger difference than AD quality. If you can try Nagra as a playback machine, I think you will be satisfied if not blown away with the quality of sound.
  22. Really? Do you have a link? I couldn't find it on their page. Thank you.
