Location Sound also sells Location Audio Simplified if that's your cup of tea. I believe it's $10-15 cheaper than Trew/Coffey sound.

I find myself keeping an ear out for ambient sounds to record during production but cannot always find the time. I think most people would agree that the sound department cannot ask G & E to stop...

Running a cable to camera isn't always easy, and I don't have a wireless hop!

I'd love to hear some post insight on the importance of a reference track.

Hey there,

I'm looking to buy this microphone! I'll negotiate on price depending on wear. I'll spend a minimum 700 and work up from there.

It will be driven, and all 4 have speaking parts. I was told that we'll have singles on each actor, probably a 2 shot for the backseat, and I don't think a wide with the camera static in the front. I...

Hey there,

What microphone would you recommend to record a scene in a mid-size vehicle? I have a driver, passenger, and 2 backseat actors. I'm going to be using a pistol grip and do not know...

Sent PM.

Now that Steve House corrected me I might be able to answer this with a better understanding. Firstly, if you were to try this method of having multiple microphones picking up ambient noises you...

What kind of training videos are they? A two track recorder works great for me on all my projects, big or small. I can't see you having too many people on camera at once speaking, so one track...

A mentor of mine places furni's at the corners of a room. To be honest though I can't remember the reason why. I'm sure someone here could explain the science of it.

After watching that video that Alex linked above, I have a better understanding of the differences of shotguns and hypercardioid mic's, but it did not help me in choosing a more recently popular...

I haven't been able to get much feedback on this subject but I feel this information can come in handy in not so great locations for sound.

Does anyone have tips or tricks for sound blankets? I...

Alright. I thought that there might be a trick to use in production, but if you say post, I'll just give it to them clean.

29 seconds in. I'd like to record a phone call with that sound quality.

Purchased. Mind giving me tips until it arrives? I have two questions.

1) How and when to use furnipads.

2) In production, what's the best way to record the sound of another person's voice at...

My problem does seem to lie within polar patterns! I've gotten the wrong impression from previous experiences, but being corrected twice now has helped me. No I do not want an omni-directional mic....

Just found an older link. Very helpful as well.

How does the Audix-SCX1-HC stand up to MKH's 8050 and 50?

I'd love a lesson in furnipad placement if you're willing to help me there. I have no control over the location, I'm just expecting worst case scenario.

I just spoke to a guy out of a sales house...

I looked back and mis-read that. MKH416 is a super-cardioid shotgun mic. Since this is the case, and what I want is a hyper for indoor long hallway scenes, what is the industry standard for avoiding...

I'm looking to expand my kit with new microphones and misc. items to help give the audio I turn in sound more natural. Right now the only mic I have is the AT4073b which has been great for me. I've...

Oh man. I actually think the woman's voice is from a wild line. Not once in the trailer do they cut to anyone speaking. They show a visual of the woman after the line is already delivered.

What's the best way to handle that/figure that out?

Undershirts are pretty helpful. The issue I had was with guys who wore button up shirts without anything under. Luckily they weren't all hairy, and I might've ended up placing the lav against the...

Haven't used moleskin yet but I really like using top stick. One big problem I've had is wiring men with hairy chests. Habit wants me to put the mic directly on the chest if clothing allows, but a...

Lectrosonics seems the way to go, and the 411 would be worth it if I have the budget for it. The UCR400 is ta-3 connected right? So then any LAV as long as it's connected with a ta-3 or adapter would...
