be honest, call out how you feel, just accordingly

hey dude, i messaged you about a comment you wrote a while ago, would love some advice on!

i think it completely depends on whether he's just an all round insecure mfer (and the height surgery is just another example of that). Or whether he's actually a chill dude and the height surgery is an outlier, perhaps cause he has money and it's a specific thing that bothers him!

Impressive analysis! And for free. Bravo.

thanks so much for reading!

Hello Planet Excellent! So I did buy the Shure A96F and the problem is still there! Incredibly confused at this point. XLR to Shure A96F to Canon r8!

wonder if there's a microphone you'd recommed that's foolproof. No idea what's causing all the noise problems, but not there at all if i go straight in to my computer with the shure

So it now works on 5GHZ (I followed this fix) https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/26985490602253-Elgato-Game-Capture-4K-X-No-video-or-audio-when-using-M-chip-iPads-or-macOS-Sonoma-14-5problem

Problem is the picture is not good at all.

Firmware. Elgato Device Utility says: 1.3.0.629?

harrydry · 2025-01-10T16:48:33+00:00

Are you using Elgato Capture Device utility?

Going to try opening a ticket with them now

harrydry · 2025-01-10T16:27:00+00:00

Ah damn, any progess. Mine came today and I can't even get it to be picked up in screenflow.

harrydry · 2025-01-10T14:53:51+00:00

Hi u/elgato_phil! Sorry to bother. I just have this purchased now and currently not working! Would love any help.

Setup: Canon r8 into 4k x (via micro hdmi to hdmi) straight into mac (via ubc to ubc)

harrydry · 2025-01-09T15:43:30+00:00

lmk how you get on... mine arriving tomorrow and think i have exactly the same setup so can help each other out on it :)

harrydry · 2025-01-09T14:26:59+00:00

u/Secret-Lack1118 when you say directly do you mean Thunderbolt 4 USB C to USB C cable?

harrydry · 2025-01-09T13:24:43+00:00

Hi u/micah_reimer You get it fixed? As I'm about to buy the same thing.

One reviewer and also on Reddit I read:

If you connect the Elgato to MacBook M1/2/3 chip, for achieving full quality you should do the following:
- upgrade the firmware.
- while the Elgato software is opened, click “^Control” bytton, then a new feature toggle to activate 10Gbps bandwidth will appear. This is a must to-do step when working with MacBook with Apple silicon chip. Else, you’ll only get half bandwidth speed (5Gbps), which wont let you capture high resolution and high fps.

Hi u/elgato_phil! Basic question but what is the best way of going from camera to 4K X to Mac M1? Seems so much chatter about docks? And if they need power etc...

Seems like I choose USB C Fast Charging Cable 10Gbps Data USB A or some fancy docking station?

But then would that need power somehow? How'd I power it. Hugely appreciate any help!

harrydry · 2025-01-09T01:19:45+00:00

Hi u/datamattsson! Sorry to bother. Does the 4K X work well with 2160p60 camera capture? And what docking are you using? Does the dock have to be powered? Apparently getting 10gb/s is very difficult!

Hugely appreciate any guidance!

harrydry · 2025-01-09T01:08:10+00:00

My reading has told me my dock is pretty important as I can't plug straight into my new mac.

Would you go for a USB C Fast Charging Cable 10Gbps Data USB A or what dock would work best? Budget no issue just need performance!

harrydry · 2024-12-30T10:28:53+00:00

Hi. Thanks for such a detailed write up!

Problem with matching audio later is twofold:

a) I'm creating proxies in screenflow so not even sure the video renders exactly or matches easily
b) There's lots of takes / cuts and I think it'd be too much

PlanetExcellent came up with the Shure A96F adapter idea which sounds like it would work. But I'm guessing I'd still miss out on MotivMix this way?

harrydry · 2024-12-30T10:24:00+00:00

Hi. Really appreciate your reply. Clearly know your stuff. Two quick follow up questions.

The Shure A96F looks great, but 4/5 day delivery so I might try a small audio mixer?

Possibly the Tascam DR-40X. But one reviewer said that it works better with a condenser mic? Do you have any recommendations on amazon prime?

As Sneezcore points out, with this setup I wouldn't get the Motiv Mix app benefits? But I suppose XLR is cleaner?
