TommygunZA Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 It seems that wireless has taken over to a large amount of the recording/movie process and was wondering if it warranted a sub-forum, like Wireless, to keep it together and aid searching? Im not super technical but have reasonable ears (when the ones not blocked) and Im intrigued with all this chat of preamps and the quality of recorders and mixers as to what we loose using wireless? For example: What would be the differences in your recorded waveform and Hz to Khz S/N ratio, THD and all those other very important things (that you often dont hear) between say Cos 11 lapel XLR'd direct to a recorder ie633 (coz I have one) vs Cos 11 lapel into Lectrosonics transmitter>receiver>recorder vs Cos 11 lapel into Sennheiser G3 Transmitter>receiver>recorder VS Cos Lapel into Sony wireless transmitter>receiver>recorder How is your signal getting denatured by wireless compared to it going via a cable? I love the "Measure with a micrometer, mark with chalk and cut with an axe" statement. It sort of epitomises that attention to detail people desire while still loosing in the long run. The gear I chose it totally arbitrary as long as its the same in each case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommygunZA Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Or maybe a sub-forum is a rubbish idea...but I'm still interested in how mangled sound gets going through wireless as opposed to cable. If this has been discussed I'd love a link or two to read. I kinda searched but nothing obvious popped up. Ill Google a bit and see if I find anything interesting.

mark kirchner Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 https://www.lectrosonics.com/US/wireless-guide.html This Wireless Guide by Lectrosonics is a good starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommygunZA Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Thanks Mark. Zus! thats a thick pdf. As you said, a good starting point. Just noticed its 18 yrs old. I guess fundamentals are still the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Steel Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Interesting that there is no mention (at least that I could find) of the digital hybrid system in there - except for the picture on the front page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
