How to tell the difference between your transmitter and your receiver, . How to get the strongest signal between your two wireless packs using squelch and pilot tone.

      Thanks a lot for such wonderful video. Could you kindly give me some tip on how using two sets of this product (for interview purposes) on a Sony A7 camera? I tried by using one receiver connected to the camera (which has only one p2 jack) and two transmitters with the same frequency of the receiver, but faced interference. Can you help me please?

  • @sharpshootermarketinggroup1031

    You make the set up simple with your clear directions and visuals that make this a no brainer. I've been using this mic system for years just swagging it regarding frequencies. Never new about the syncing. Even my audio pro wasn't aware of that nifty feature. I'll be checking out your other videos as well. Thanks for creating this tutorial.

    Bruh, I've had the G3 series for almost 2 years now and learned something new from the first 30 secs of your video lmfao I never knew it was that easy to re-sync the two by tapping them together. Appreciate you for just THAT right there. Also, it's good to see another person with G3/Zoom H6 combo. ✊🏽 i LOVE the sound it gives when i record interviews out on the field. You've just got a new sub out of me.

I’m connecting to a Tascam DR-60 Dmk II and I wasn’t seeing a single and that was because my Sennheiser wasn’t hooked up right. Now it seems to be working thanks to this set up video.

    Dude this was awesome! I've been frustrated for years with my G3 because I thought I was just dumb and didn't know how the settings worked. My pack came with a handheld mic transmitter, a body pack, and a camera receiver like shown here. Well, thanks to your video, I just learned that the handheld transmitter is on a different frequency range than my body pack and receiver, so it's not just that I'm an idiot, it's that there was legit only 1 frequency that both shared (516.000) and that was obviously problematic. I've already reached back out to my sennheiser rep about it. Thank you so much! Very well done video!

    • @JavierMercedes
      @JavierMercedes  Před 4 lety +1

      the frequency bandwidth struggle is real, especially for those who are working large show choir shows. You may be using all three types of packs in that situation. Glad I could help!

    Very Nice video. I learned a few things I didn't know about my G3's, but background music is distracting (to me, anyway). Some viewers will disagree with me, but I bet if you didn't use the music at all while you're speaking, virtually nobody would mind at all. I've been producing videos professionally for over 30 years and have, at times mixed background music too loud and my clients/sample viewers have let me know to mix it down a bit.
    Once again, Way Good info here. Thanks.

May I make a suggestion for you to add a small sticker on each device facing the camera with the words "Receiver" and "Transmitter" so we know which is the Receiver and Transmitter you are holding. I often find myself doing some rewinds back to verify that you are holding one or the other. Thanks and be safe.

Recently I read about setting the mic / line level in the transmitter by setting the sensitivity to 0 and then watching the AF light -light up as you or your subject speaks, and then adjusting sensitivity down until the AF light does not light up- does adjusting the sensitivity this way allow for a more accurate setting, usually around, say -12 to -24db?
