Field Audio Recording

The field wireless recording unit and mic options

Following on from yesterday:

For field recording we have two mic options – lapel mic and a base of hand held mic option.
Both send back to a Azden battery operated – camera mounted Receiver.

200UPR Receiver
Frequency Range UHF 63-Channel Selectable (793.750 – 805.875MHz)
Type of Reception 2 Channel Receiver

As this takes in two separate feeds from two mics – the outputs from this are plugged straight into the XLR inputs of the HVX200.

I love this unit .. we have another I will talk about tomorrow but this thing seems to be very robust.

The hand mic unit just clicks on the base of an XLR mic – In yesterdays photo I think John is using the XM1800s Behinger… I tell you this mic is super cheap and completely professional… it is solid – metal and yet very inexpensive. We have a bunch of them as our “workhorse” mics which dont matter if they are lost or nicked… vs our studio mics – which are 10X the price. Honestly for dialogue – they are cheap and brilliant.
