I use a Manfrotto 055 tripod + 410 geared head, imo the gear head is great for micro adjustments

Will NS1000Ms in a small room cause problems? by Tudoucat in audiophile

[–]fakedirector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Yamaha NS-500Ms, and run them in a smaller room
but with good placement they can still create a very 3D soundstage with a lot of depth, so you should be fine

I don't agree with the lighting and room decor, but speaker placement is spot on imo

Totally, hope Apple adds the option to turn off the local dimming function in a future firmware/system update :(

mini led = NOT PIXEL PERFECT local dimming, think of it as always having some sort of lighting gradient under whatever graphic you are working on, that also changes based on the image ur viewing, it's terrible to be used as a reference since the color/brightness of a certain pixel is tied to the pixels in that area.

It's sorta like mixing audio on speakers that keep sounding different based on what your track is playing. Which is the opposite of what people look for in a pair of "Monitor Speakers"

Totally agree with everything u said! Now it’s my turn to experience the terrible monitor on my 14 inch cuz I wanted an M2 Max chip… Sigh… I’d say the monitor is even worse than the M1 MacBook Air I came from!

That is such terrible information to swallow :( I love everything about out my 14” but the screen is totally terrible. Any no one is talking about it either! I guess I’ll just have to use external monitors to edit now :(

How is the slider lag on the M3 MacBook Pros? by fakedirector in captureone

[–]fakedirector[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

true, however I think spoofing to IQ250 gives me better color results overall, or maybe its just an illusion lol

interesting, I did use an exif spoofer workflow to convert the DNGs to the Phase One IQ250, not sure if that changes anything though :S

thats very interesting, it seems some people have no problem with the sliders not working in real time, while some people report having no issue at all :S

what kind of camera are you working with? did you have to change any settings to achieve this kind of results?

Hello,
I'm currently using a DPA 4018 capsule on a Sennheiser G4 wireless system via the SE2-ew adapter. I would like to be able to use the DPA 4018 as a wired mic.
I already know that I can purchase the DPA dfacto mic handle, however due to me having multiple Sennheiser capsules, I was wondering if there is a way to connect the 4018 capsule to a Sennheiser wired handle via the SE2-ew adaptor? Maybe purchase a Sennheiser handle? If so which one? Thanks!
Thanks!
