Hey there,

I went on a shoot yesterday where I didn't bring my own equipment. Sometimes I'm up for the challenge of making the best out of what you have at hand and improvise.

The production had a Zoom H6 a "Boom", which was a Rode Pistolgrip screwed on a Sachtler Camera Monopod. Oh and no Audio-Bag whatsoever. I always bring my "Harness" just to have it. This is the Solution I came Up with.

I made a loop out of Gaffa and wrapped it around the XLRr of input 2 and 4 of the Zoom.

Later on i moved the wireless recievers up to the shoulder straps so I could see them with a little awkward headtwisting and the antennas weren't covered by my body anymore.

It worked very well. I even could watch the meters while booming because of the slightly tilted screen. The Zoom Itself is a pain to monitor though because you cant really switch the single inputs for monitoring while recording.

A quick and dirty solution. ^-^
