Hey guys,
Got kind of a noob question here, i've been searching this forum for the past hour or so/google and can't seem to find a good answer on this. I have an upcoming shoot coming up where I will be touring with a few poets/speakers and we will have 4 shows in 4 nights, and i'm looking to rent some lav's along with a couple zoom h1 units to use as body pack recorders. I won't have time/budget really to rent a few sennheiser g3 packs, and dont' want to deal with the hassle of setting up all 3 effetively for each show, and it would see much more logical to be able to just stick a zoom h1 in each of their pockets (there are 3 preformers), and hide a lav on them. I have a dpa 4061 (2x) and a DPA 4060, but I don't believe that these would be powered by the zoom h1 plug in power, yes? It seems like some other lavs such as the countryman b6 MIGHT work, but i'm not sure what would be the best option. I would like to rent from the online rental shops and here is what I would be available to get:
Countryman B3
Countryman B6
Sennheiser MKE 2 Gold
I don't have a zoom h1 with me so I can't confirm that the DPA's won't work, however I don't believe they will.
Any thoughts?
