    Kofi, thanks again for your channel. So I have a question about the DJI Mic Receiver 3.5 to XLR cable going into the top handle on the FX-6. Were you able to get both transmitters over that 1 XLR into Ch1/Ch2? If so, that's a game changer because I could get onboard shotgun plus 2 lavs.
    Or, would one need a splitter 3.5 to 2 XLR's to make that happen? Thanks as always!!!

    quick question! Ive been using the sennheiser mke 600 on the fx3 top handle and have noticed lots of handling noise... when using these mics are you trying to be still as possible? I don't notice this handling noise when using the 3.5 inch jack Rode mic plugged directly into the camera, but the audio doesn't compare to the MKE 600 .. Im thinking of just getting a shorter XLR shotgun mic so there is less movement...

    Hey Kofi, thanks for this video, it's amazing! How do you deal with all the 8 tracks in your editor? Is there a way to only use for example 2 so in davinci resolve I only see two tracks? Now it's very hard to build a timeline. And another question I have is that every time I only use the mic of the top handle, I only hear my audio in my left earbud. Is there a way that this signal is made stereo in camera? Thanks in advance & love your channel!

    I’ve heard mixed reviews on the top handle in terms of its quality. Considering I plan on picking an MKH416 to go with my FX30, I was contemplating using a Zoom F3 to capture that audio. However, I’m not sure how I would go about mounting the F3 to my rig in a handheld situation on the go. Any recommendations? 🤔

    • @KofiYeboah
      @KofiYeboah  Рік тому +1

      I like itEXCEPT how easy the shock mount can break, but the audio on there’s great , maybe get it on rods between the back of camera and the v mount?

    • @Dwoalin
      @Dwoalin Рік тому

      @@KofiYeboah The 32 bit float is very tempting on the F3 👀 That’s also a fair point. Also I didn’t realize there’s a thread on the F3 so I could likely find a spot on a cage to mount it.

    • @HighlyAkicktive
      @HighlyAkicktive Рік тому

      if you have the top handle extension you can mount the Zoom F3 at the end of the handle. I'm using a Smallrig 2948 ball joint for this. But if you're not using the audio ports of the handle at all you may want to consider switching the handle altogether. The FX3 handle is really noisy, so is the "shock mount". The F3 in combo with the MKH 416 will give you killer sound. I'm "only" using the Audio Technica AT875R and am super happy with that setup.

    @braydonlangford485 4 місяці тому +1

    You need to apply a compressor to your audio since there’s still a buzz / noise when you talk. It’s a bit distracting for some of the cuts. (I’m also listening on audio technica monitors so that might be a factor)
