If you’re not handy with a soldering iron I can make one for you. Contact me at audioetc@bellsouth.net or call: 954-255-7628.

The Oktava 012 has notorious LF handling issues. Not a mic for run & gun although if it’s mounted in a good shock mount on a good boom pole on a solid stand it could work fairly well. You’ll need a mixer with a LF or high pass filter to eliminate any thumps & bumps it will pick up. If you find a used AKG Blueline set with the hyper capsule & the shotgun capsule you’ll be better served. Check out ebay for AKG Blueline.

Rodney,
I feel your pain. The major issues I’ve had with SD products over the years is that they were not designed for adult sized hands & fingers. I have no experience with the 552 so I can’t comment on it’s layout but if it’s anything like SD’s other product designs it’s another case of trying to put 10 pounds of stuff in a 5 pound bag.

Hard to say which mic will match your 416 to your satisfaction although both the Schoeps 641 & the Sennheiser MKH 50 have been used with 416’s. As you know the 416 has a very unique voice so perhaps you can find a used Sennheiser 405 as a mate since they both come from the same era.

There’s a pop up that says “file can’t be found” when you click on the link.

The 82i is a great mic but it has a narrow angle of acceptance. You have to be very accurate in your aiming of it, not something I would trust an amateur to do. You might get $1200-$1400 for it on a consignment listing or better yet see if you can do an even up swap for a Sanken CS3e or Sennheiser MKH 50. Try the consignment listings on trewaudio.com or ebay.

Your problem is that both transmitters are on the same frequency. You can have one transmitter feeding many receivers (like television or radio does)but not the other way around. You’ll need to get another receiver in the same frequency block. Then you will need to tune each set to different frequencys within the block.

That’s why it’s called sound mixing. Seperate channels or ISO’s are for backup & post production use should it be required.

You turn up the receiver’s output level until you get a good level on your mixer when the mixer is set to a normal position. Turning up the incoming signal and turning down the mixer cancels out the action. Make sure you have the proper cables. Is your Sennheiser wireless the G2 or G3 EW 100 series?

Forgot to add this to my previous reply. Regarding your Sennheiser mics, you should only have one power source running at a time either the internal battery or the 48vp from the camera. I would choose the internal battery and shut off the camera 48v phantom. You’ll save a bit of camera battery power that way.
