Ze Frias Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Check out the new ambient slate. It's actually a module that can be removed and look a lot like the betso. Though more expensive than the BETSO, it probably is the best option today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomboom Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 You bet ! You get reliable TC as both a display and (well, large) lockit box plus the ACN system and all the options tied to that system. If I was to buy a Betso because of budget, I'd finance the difference to get the Ambient slate for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatfatjames Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 1 x SD633 2 x Lectrosonics SRb 1 x Zaxcom IFB100 1 x Sennheiser HD25 1 x Riimote wireless keyboard in Petrol PS601 bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 My 633 rigged up in a Petrol PS-601 bag. A pair of UCR100 Rx, as well as a very old school 195d Rx. Comtek Tx in the middle, and a pair of Sennheiser G2's for camera scratch feeds. I'm running the G2's out of the X1 and X2 outs with custom Eric Toline cables. The Comtek is fed from the X3/X4 output. Eric also made me an adapter from the main XLR outs and cam return for my existing 10 pin Hirose breakaway cable. It stays plugged in and lives in the bag under the wireless gear when not needed. I run the 633 with an NP1 in the belly pouch, a pair of L-mounts, and AA rechargeables in the unit. Next step for me is to step up the wireless to a pair of SRb Rx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Villegas Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 633 mini bag. Made it myself. This is a first prototype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Campion Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Now that is a mini bag! Just needs an NP35. (or neater still, if the 633 could output DC from its L-types on hirose pin 2 and 3) What material have you used for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Villegas Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Indeed. I'm working on an NP35 battery setup. Only problem is that I'd need 2 batteries to get the same rating as an NP-1, which makes it too big. I may make a compartment at the bottom for the battery. I used KODRA which is basically the same as cordura. Lined it with some soft fabric to give it the Herschel look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callou Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Cool job, what mic are you using for the music recording? most of the times in don' t have anytime to hide specific mic on the drum..when i do use a few beyer dynamic microphones when i can hide them behind the drum ( on the players who sits on the drums wich plays bass) on the lead drums wich are played verticaly i tried to hide a dpa lav ..works quite well on not too hard hitting drummers.. But most of the time i simply use my schoeps MS rig because things are going realy fast and the movie is about catching the "vibes" when it happened and taking time to plant mics before or during the shoot is not an option...a little scary but everything's going fine..

Lancashire soundie Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 My bag, now I have a Nomad 10. I reckon my next purchase will probably be more radio channels. I couldn't face ordering yet more output cables, so I had Everything Audio make me a splitter so I could use my SQN Tajimi cables on the Nomad. The silver box on the left is an Audioroot power distributor, I bought that because while the NP1 and shoe fit nicely in the supplied pocket, the cables protruding from the NP1 shoe were quite tight in the bag, and I don't want to risk a break/short on a power cable. Plus, the Audioroot is shiny, and I like shiny things. Only two annoying things about the Petrol bag - the first is that it doesn't hold its shape very well when sat on a desk, the second is that the Zaxnet antenna isn't really catered for - although mine fits at an angle.

RadoStefanov Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 With a little modification you can make this bag very balanced. Check my mod on this forum Sent from my RM-893_nam_tmous_201 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very similar bag to mine. I also run a Nomad (12) and 2 SRB. As you don't seem to have the modded Petrol bag (they make one with a zip for the Zaxnet aerial to protrude from the bag) I would use caution. Mine lacks this mod and has caused the Zaxnet aerial to break free inside at the SMA connector. Pain in the arse to fix. Especially if you use ERX everyday like I do.

jwill Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 My new 633 in a kortwich bag...gonna squeeze an srb tween those 411s!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locationsoundvie Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Doing film sound just for about 2years and wanted to built kind a good kit to start. Began with a 744T and ended up with the 633. Would like to swap the heavy 442 with something lighter. Wireless 2xG3 with VT500 Mics and a director/boom op IFB Sennheiser IEM G3. They are good enough for the work i'm doing right now, for more range I rent the lectros. Hope to get a good deal sometime to get my own used lectros. On the boom MKH 416/Neumann KM 185.

locationsoundvie Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I bought the 442 to have a mixer during the time i used the 744t. Now i am using the direct outs for the line inputs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
