Video

Was not expecting to like the Diety the best.

Which would you recommend for making cycling videos via a djij actiion 4, which has a USB-c intereface? I'd also need a TRS too USB-c adaptor, which I assume would lose some audio quality in the DAC?

to me 3 were noisy comparatively.. Sanken and countryman are the noisiest, more than dpa and deity. Thanks for that. I wonder if diety has a head set for stage?

"most intuitive user-friendly interface on the planet" is quite a stretch. i wish they did a lot more beta testing of these in the field when it comes to UX. thanks for all your Nova tutorials!

What about the Countryman B3

Nice video. Any recommendations for when you’re driving?

deity sounds really good. I use dpa 6060s and 6061s but would consider trying deity for a fraction of a cost

Which one is the best?

Hey Jim, thank you for this video! Question for you - what mic pack would you recommend for the sanken cos-11d?

What are the blue cable protectors attached behind both of your SRc receivers??

Wow, super appreciative that you shared this knowledge, so a huge thank you, really. As a one man band docie maker, the amount of information I have to process is just overwhelming, so these tips mean the world to me. Really, thanks mate.

incredibly insightful!

Glad I stumbled on your content. Thanks for making this super informative video man!

I’m looking to record high def pov driving videos and prefer to have the windows down so you can really hear exhaust noise etc. What do you think would be the best mic? I’ve tortured the DJI wireless mic along with a lav. I’ve also retired an h2n with a dead cat but with either setups, I’m getting a lot of toad noise and rushing air

do you need to keep the device connected during the shoot? Or could you use one device for multiple cameras?

Thanks for this amazing vid! Any thoughts in attack and decay times in general and in specific contexts?

Hi Jim, thank you very much for your Video! I have the same cart, one questions please. This is the Peli 1507 or 1557? Thanks!

Sony a7s3 also accept timecode with same cable😊

Helpful video, thanks....Is there any way of accessing channels 1,2 ? So you could run 3 channel; 1 shotgun 2x radios??

Cool shout out for Rado! I know him from living in Vegas and he's very passionate about his work.

years ago i find myself into that situation. I only had a couple of cos11s and i taped 2 of them on the two visors in an attempt to develop a sort of boundary effect with the visor surface. The voice sound was ok but i had a lot of engine noise in my recording. Sadly the van was pretty old and noisly with nasty vibrations. Anyway i managed to get the job done.

A note for opening the Nova (1 or 2)... Of the 10 small screws holding the chassis to the front panel, the 2 screws that land above the F7 button and below the F10 button are cut a little shorter than the others. It is necessary to use these shorter screws in those 2 locations (if the longer screws are used, they may put pressure on those buttons - causing them to function improperly (or not at all). If your 'F#' buttons don't always respond, Zaxcom recommends loosening the chassis screws near those buttons. Personally, I just leave those 2 screws out altogether.

"Clip Never", cheeky.

A note for NOVA2 users: I own both a Nova 1 and Nova 2, I took a look inside both units and can confirm that they use different batteries and these coin batteries are located in different places... Nova 1, which requires a CR2330, is located near the rear and can be accessed without removing the middle plate. However the Nova 2 (which requires a CR2032) is located closer to the front panel (behind encoder #3) and does require the middle plate to come off the stand-offs. Also to get the Nova 2 chassis open, you'll need to remove the 2 bolts on the rear DB15 connector.

I'm new to lavalier mic's, but need one to fit into the small mic hole of a Meinl Ibo Tri Udu drum for mic' ing it internally. It is for home (studio) recording, so the drum would be close to my audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (3rd gen) and Logic Pro. I need the mic to pick up the full range, including bass and be able to handle fairly loud sound. I know nothing about how to connect, other than XLR ... whether wireless connection results in latency during recording, etc. I heard about the micro-dot connectors but have no idea how these connections would connect to either my audio interface to into my DAW on my MacBook Pro (M1) with Max chip. Any advice would be greatly (extremely) appreciated :-)

@3:58 Important to note that as of firmware 4.00 (released after this video) you can now route tracks to Out 1-4, if you wanted to do it that way.

Issue I have is when I put a battery in it doesn’t turn on. However when I squeeze it. It works. Then when I let go it doesn’t work. 😅

Dub intro Fucks Hard

2:50 *Tom Silva taking a break and talking to some crew member on the sidelines* Tom: "I hope nobody hears this but I really hate Festool, but don't tell anybody I said that, they're a sponsor you know." Jim: "TMZ Scoop here I come!"

For someone who works professionally in the sound industry, it is damn strange that you can't pronounce Schoeps correctly. 🙄😖

Quite helpful thanks

How to connect to liveu 800 to holly land solidcom

This was so well done! What a great shoot out. Really impressed with the Deity mics. Great value.

Which mic do you think matches better in post to the cmit 5u : the sanken cos11d or the dpa 6060?

Do m-dot terminated lav mics lose quality and have possible connection issues with 3.5 to m-dot adapters ?

How do you connect them to your camera?

This was very helpful. Thank you. Do you have any videos about how to hide lave mics and the accessories you would need for this? Would you recommend any of these mics over any of the others when it comes to clothing noise?

Excellent video. I have a question. If am looking to use with my wireless setup, which is better to use. I am using with my UHS transmitter/receiver on the actor, speaker. I uss the Zoom F6 and it has a 3.5mm input on the mic transmitter. Do I need to a xlr input to use any of these or will my 3.5 work? I am filming a short movie in a high school and teaching filmmaking. We are using a Panasonic Mirrorless camera and the F6 for external audio. Sound is important hence my questions. Thanks in advance. New subscriber. 😊

FYI on the Facebook thing. If you are not logged into Facebook is very concerned that you are not logged in and if you scroll down like half the page it puts a full banner over. Facebook should not be your presence whether they have issues or whether they change their opinions on something. I have run across so many pages where I want to know a time or location or something and it opens up and it's never logged in on my phone through Safari even though I'm logged in on the app and it's just a pain to get the information.

Oh wow what a professional company who has a website who could put a firmware page but no we're just gonna put everything on Google Drive! I'm sure it's convenient on the production end of things. Scary from the security aspect that anybody who has access to the shared folder could push malicious material! Most likely by accident! And not always convenient for the user which is why we have to have a video explaining how to find it. And for most web activities it's always a single click, Google Drive complicates things it's still a single click. The problem is more they want you to download it to your Google Drive so it doesn't automatically download which is a good thing in a way (drive-by downloads) but adds that extra step of having to click the button.

This is awesome. I always wondered how they did it. It's impressive how good the audio is from all the years I've been watching. And the irony that there's clothing rustling noise when it's the Audio guy on cam.

Thanks for the video Jim. What is the brand of the battery cup with the extra leads?

Hi Jim, nice video, thanks. I'm a Cos11 user and i'm looking for a smart pouch to pack my 5 sanken. Your pouch at the begining looks perfect, can you send me the reference please ?

Thank you for taking the time to put this together.

Great information

Excellent review. Thanks a lot.

Benefit if dude address Tram is you can face it backwards but mount the windscreen per usual. Doing both of those things really helps fight wind noise when using unhidden.

What’s the best microphones for professional filming? (Price is not an issue) *looking for highest quality

What is the film that is over the mics at 13:43? Great video!

excellent, thanks
