Ah, sorry to hear it; NAB must have changed the terms of that code over the weekend. The vendors with NAB tables also have individual free codes to distribute and many posted them on their social media if that's helpful, though I believe those might also have an expiration date.
Great video. At 1:34, @Karl, you mention the TA5 output on the top which can go into a Sony camera. Does this mean Sony cameras can accept 4 channels, perhaps as AES?
Wait till u try and turn it on&off there only a small hole the size of a budgie seed made out of rubber. U can only use your finger nail what will eventually crack the rubber .and have to hold hard for like 4 to 5 seconds very bad design. And only one lead to charge
mephisto's are the fershizzle. nothing says anti-fashion quite like them, and then you put them on and you feel like you just borrowed Federer's footwork in his prime. If you don't have those kinds of sheckles and you don't mind being a shorter sound person, I recommend Lems barefoot shoes, out of Boulder, CO. I'm someone who likes to feel every surface when I boom, and they make a respectable work boot without the cartoonish toe box of other minimalist shoes. Short of wearing ninja slippers or moccasins, my other go to's for fare weather would be Wildlings on the west coast.
All good tips but Peter, +1 there for how you think of your backup. Especially how quickly you can replicate workflow. If you need to switch over from Dante/AES to analog on wireless, that can take a long time to swap out baseplates, add cables, etc. While I love the idea of Nexus, that's one of my biggest concerns.
great wrap up as always, I'm trying to figure out the Compatibility of PSC bells and lights with Sound Devices 8 series, but i couldn't find anything useful in the manual, have anyone connected it to an 8-series and got it to work in Automatic mood ?
Great question!! I've read in the B&L manual that it's possible l - but maybe we just need to try it for ourselves. For sure the CL16 with it's GPIO block would make it easier.
Bellissimo from Egypt . the tube amps , that little saturation in the dialogue to deliver the analogue warm feeling , the dedication , the effort , reverberations , tweaking , the mix , perspectives , spaces , cars , busses , the sound edit , the design ... it is always good recording good mixing , thank you gotham for interviewing the production sound mixer of Ripley... Many thanks to the production and the director that have this mindset and knowledge of how the realistic sound really matters in telling the story . can you discuss the fact that the budget of getting a great and realistic sound isn't that much far away from getting acceptable sound .
Yes, the standard PSC Sharkfin antenna did drop out quite a bit after about 500ft. But with the BSRF Fiber kit we were able use the same antenna to go so much further without experiencing any significant loss.
Hi guys, great vid! I’m a bit of an RF novice here, so if Deity isn’t permitted at an event because of its large footprint, would something like Axient also not be permitted?
When they say large RF footprint that means the emission of the actual transmitter. Shure Axient is one of the most efficient wireless products on the market and is a standard at all large events.
What @eriksharar986 said - plus I'd add that what makes Deity problematic at large events like this is the relatively large amount of RF energy that the Deity transmitters emits outside of its designated spectral mask (the "noise skirt"). This means that less wireless transmitters can be coordinated adjacent to the Deity system than other brands, since the carriers must be given a wider "berth" to avoid the noise from the skirt. Shure and others are more efficient at containing the rf energy within their spectral mask. Answering your question about resources - this is a great place to start: An oldie but goodie lectrosonics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/wg2000.pdf - I read the original version of that in the 90's, and my journey of learning about RF still continues. -Peter
RF Over Fiber systems like those made by BSRF, Wisycom, RF Venue, or Professional Wireless are compatible with any receiver including the A20 Nexus. The BSRF system shown here has a frequency range of 470 to 800 mHz.
at 2:43 of this video what does he mean by the qp5 series had a little lateral movement when having a heavy set up ? and will the new locks aded to the qp5 series fix this issue ?
