I always get weird looks when my mixer is out in an airport, especially in smaller rural ones, I try to keep it inside a case. I work for MBC occasionally ( middle eastern broadcast company) and people tend to judge a book by its cover, especially when that book is a white guy with a metal box with antennas coming out of it surrounded by a crowd of people speaking Arabic

Can anyone recommend ways to protect a lav against water?

I had an AD surprise me in the morning that the actors were going to be running out of a burning plane in a storm. My quick solution with 30 mins notice, I ran into the craft truck grabbed a couple rubber gloves; double gloved the transmitter using snot tape and tight knot to ensure a waterproof seal around the mic. The tip of the cos11 I slid into the just the finger tip of another glove( made sure it was tight) over the mic and taped it off. I was prepared to get wild lines when I came up with the fix, but I was shocked at how good it sounded. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I'm going to be on a show for almost 6 months, alternating travel and shoot days, with flights every week. I was curious what packing solutions are out there. Currently for small travel shows I have a lowepro dslr backpack which I find sufficient for mics, transmitters, cables, tapes etc. and a pelican 1510 for my 552 mixer ( but the 664 is just too big to put it in sideways, which i have now) and a long case for boom and stand. Usually I strip my mixer for travel and always carry-on, but I want to limit the amount of tear downs I have to do.
