What kind of power (AC or DC) do the power supplies OUTPUT TO the receivers?
What does the power input on the receivers say?
In other words, what voltage, current (amps / milliamps,) and AC or DC do the Receivers themselves run on?
If its DC, you can simply run them directly from batteries, if you connect the batteries with the right kind of plug to fit the jack on the receiver.
Post all the info you have and we can help you.

Build and use gobos (screens/false walls with sound-deadening material) to “change the SHAPE” of the room.

[peter Groom] “There are 2 types of people in this world.
Those who wear suits, have meetings, then see who can actually do it for them –
and those who just do it.”I started out as a DO IT guy.
Then, I wore the suits and attended the meetings for a year or two.
Never again.
Just hand it to me, and I’ll DO it.

Set up the first clip, then just Copy and Paste the ATTRIBUTES onto all of the other clips on that track.

Apple has that.
They call it an iPhone.

[Bret Williams] “And make sure the audio guy monitors the camera output, and not their little mixer output! So often the audio recorded at the camera is overdriven because the camera record level is too high,”
All well and good.
But we are fully back around to the SHOOTER wearing some monitor headsets, as well.
When I’m running the shoot from behind the lens… I am responsible.
I want to HEAR that its right. -

As was said, the audio is AC and the phantom is DC.
The constant DC won’t interact with the audible frequencies of the audio signal.
But adding another AC signal will create harmonics and cross-talk on the both signals.
There is no such thing as a “null” audio frequency signal that can be sent down a long cable… the cable inductance alone will “alter the null” as it travels the length of the wires and make its artifacts severely problematic.
FWIW, you can send an “RF” (radio frequency) signal down the same line as audio (with the proper filtering on either end) but RF is so high in frequency that it won’t add any discernible harmonics to the audio signal.

[Herb Sevush] “If you take one of the stereo channels and reverse the phase (many plug-ins can do this) then re-combine the 2 channels, theoretically the vocals will dissapear, as the audio that is identical on both channels (center panned) should cancel itself out if one channel is out of phase with the other.
Adobe’s audio program, Audition, has an effect that does just this but the resultant music sounds awful and generally a little of the singing still leaks thru.”
And since 99.99% of all the BASS is mixed dead-center, IT cancels as well.
You bet it sounds awful!

July 2, 2007 at 3:55 pm in reply to: Why won’t FCP6 play an mp4 file straight from iTunes?[David McGiffert] “t looks like your question is answered to an extent.
But, as I was just wrestling with this the other day,
and I found the quickest way was to select the song (in iTunes),
that you want to import, go up into the “Advanced” setting, select
“Convert Selection to AIFF”…
This duplicates the song as an AIFF.
Drag that converted song to the desktop.
Import it into FCP from the desktop”No need to drag any file (audio, video or still image) to the desktop.
Just click on it inside its folder (right where iot sits) and drag it into thye open FCP Browser.
