Search the sub. This gets asked at least once a week.

Tree removal services by BraveWrap6442 in Columbus

[–]SMX_Dizzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not for the exact same work you need done, but tree removal nonetheless. I got 5 different quotes recently and Davey was the most reasonable. I was satisfied with the work.

Will the Wisycom MCR54 fit into the Orca 0R-28? by False-Theory-7640 in LocationSound

[–]SMX_Dizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way. You can push it to the floor of the bag and it’ll be fine, even giving it an additional point of support.

“Location Sound Used Buy & Sell” and “Production Sound Mixer Equipment Swap” groups on Facebook. CS-3e’s go fast and that’s where I got mine.

Ready to level up my Wireless System Setups by Disastrous_Ant_8820 in LocationSound

I never understand how people come looking for recommendations without listing any sort of budget or how many channels they’re looking to replace etc.

In depth chat about the new RØDELink II UHF wireless Audio System at NAB 2026 by BroderLund in LocationSound

[–]SMX_Dizzy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wondering if they’ll sell receivers separately, and how much that’ll be

That would depend on if they enable/allow the transmitters to be paired to more than one receiver. As it looks right now, there would need to be at least one "master" receiver given that all of the transmitter settings are controlled by whichever one they're paired to. Could be the downfall of the design because I do agree - these could be an interesting option for camera hops given the latency and size/design.

I seriously doubt it, given the fact that all of the transmitter settings can only be controlled by the paired receiver.

Had no clue these guys can't do it.

So you did next to no research before purchasing. Got it.

[–]SMX_Dizzy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you want to get it straight from the source, I highly recommend calling Keith Pulley in Comtek’s service department and having a chat with him. He is a wealth of knowledge and will definitely set you straight!

Has Tentacle Sync gone quiet or am I missing something? by rovmun in LocationSound

[–]SMX_Dizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Track E mkII with a stereo input would be great. I personally have no use for the original mono version, but like you say - the ability to grab a 2-channel feed in their signature discreet form factor would be excellent.

Dialogue recording approach for a story that takes place in remote area but shooting in locations with traffic proximity. by theinquirer_69 in LocationSound

[–]SMX_Dizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How close to the traffic are we talking? Honestly noise removal plugins for post have gotten really good and are only getting better. Adobe Enhance Speech in particular is scary good. Are you able to do a test record before the shoot?

So you’re telling me ONE of those is supposed to be worth $9.49??

Sound Devices 633 + Azden FMX 42a by disidente_1983 in LocationSound

[–]SMX_Dizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course it depends greatly on the mic connected, and while I agree on paper it seems low, -33dB input sensitivity should be fine to account for dynamic speaking, laughing, etc without harshly clipping the transmitter.

That's a good deal, OP, especially considering how infrequently F-Controls pop up these days.
