Hello.
I'm a newbie soundguy from Korea,
started working in Vancouver recently.
This is my first time posting a topic here so before I start,
I want to thank everyone, how helpfull, just reading all the posts in this site is.
Really, really.
Thank you for sharing all the discussions and experience.
So here is my story,
I will be helping on a short interview type pilot show in a few week.
They wanted to use wireless lav mics which I don't have any,
so I told the person who contact me (...producer? not sure)
that we can rent out Lectrosonics lav mic (UM400/UCR411)
or I can borrow my friends Sony lav mic.
(cant remember the model, according to my google image search, think it's UWPV1/3032)
And the person sends me an email back
"I don't know anything about sound or mic's so I'm not sure what the quality difference would be between the Lectrosonics and the sony? Is one preferable over the other?"
In my short experience,
I think Lectrosonics lav sounds a bit more sharp than Sony,
but I don't know the exact difference between the two
and I don't know the "words" to use when I want to explain it to someone else.
Could anyone give me a clue what and how I should explain?
And what kind of "keyword" I should search to dig in and study about these?
Thank you so much again.
