Philip Perkins Posted January 22, 2019 Report Posted January 22, 2019 Doco shoot, happening in 2 adjacent rooms at the same time. Me solo on sound. I work with the A cam doing interviews, verite etc in one room, B unit is a solo shooter with a...Red Epic in the other. Ok--so in addition to recording the wirelesses from that set on my rig and a 2nd rig, we need a mic on the camera as well. Lots of emails re: ref-track hop+TC box+mic mounting on the camera. On the day: oops! The brand new RED firmware has eliminated P48 mic powering! So....Mozegear PAPI to the rescue again--plugged into the back of the mic and powered off of DTap. Be warned, folks: it's now not just the Alexa Mini that needs phantom+preamp love when the client asks for an onboard mic! Quote
