@@JoshBirman Good man, quality work🙌 You will do well my friend
Great video. Even though I have been in he film industry for over 20years, audio always has been somewhat of a mystery to me 😅 so I love watching these kind of setups. Thanks for the video

Thanks man!! I totally get what you’re saying. Audio gear is more familiar to me now, but trying to edit audio is a whole other beast 😂
Very nice video! Helpful, too.
great video Josh!
You should consider the InstamicPro plus , 32bit float recorder , unbelievable small and good quality
Very courteous of you to put the full setup at the beginning for the impatient - shows that you have no reason to fluff up the rest of the video, so I stayed for the good tips. I've gained a new respect for wedding videographers and photographers - honestly growing up I saw the job as boring, but recently I've come to understand it's one of the most intense media jobs, technically and logistically. That example footage and audio you showed are hella crispy btw 0_0

Thanks for the video, Josh. I have two of the Tascam DR-10L recorders (both in black, but a third mic in white). They are great, but I kind of wish that I had got something that I could jam time code to :(

I know what you mean. Those Tentacle Sync Track Es are so enticing!
Your f3 is the only piece that’s modern. I’d highly recommend changing to the newer tascam with 32bit float. I personally use the tentacle track e for groom with 32 bit float and don’t mic bride. Boosting groom mic with 32bit float is perfect for bride

No doubt! That’s why I mentioned in the video how I would recommend getting a 32bit float recorder like the Tentacle Sync Track E.
Really solid video man! Top tier 👏 We have a really similar kit. I just bought the Tascam X8, I have two F2's, DJI wireless mic's, and the Deity D3Pro... and the crab clamp x2 🤣. I can strap the DJI Mics in record mode to the DJ's mic, or I have a small mic that connects to the F2 if I want 32bit on the DJ's mic. I also like to use the F2's and then connect the DJI mic to the out so I can bake in the audio into one of my cameras, but also have the 32bit if I need it.

Thanks man!!! That’s a really great use for the DJI mics! Have you ever run into wireless issues with the DJ’s mic and the DJI mics causing interference with each other?

@@JoshBirman One time there was a small buzz, but I realized it was actually the magnet on the DJI mic not the mic itself. Now I leave the magnet in the charging case when I couple it with other devices.

Oh dang, yeah that’s not good if your on camera mic is sounding better. Does a quick EQ not help much either?
The F3 has been one of the biggest nightmare pieces of equipment for me . I don’t know if I’ve just got defective one but it’s ruined so many shoots , I just don’t use it anymore . It’s crazy how excited I was to get it and it’s been nothing but down hill since . Anyway . Great post ! ✌🏼✌🏼
