In this episode we give you a behind-the-scenes look at our sound bag and cart setup for recording on location!

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest courses cover Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini and an Intro to Izotope RX. See school.learnlightandsound.com/ for more info!

    A very nice setup. I love seeing what other tradesman use. Keep this content coming!
  • @xaisies
    Definitely an interesting video - and the 'why' of the setup is quite informative too.
  • @theearwyrm6105
    Thanks for sharing your setup, workflow and additional context for us! Your experience and wisdom has been very help for me as I work to establish myself in the industry.
  • @GRIFFYJAMS
    Your videos are so helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge so generously.
  • @lindalawson4296
    That was extremely helpful and something to aspire to. 😊
  • @isaiahadona
    I love the disclaimer in the beginning! Great vid Curtis!! Very insightful. Happy New Year!
  • @HollowRoadStudio
    Thanks for yet another very cool and super clear video - love your explanations every time! Cheers for 2024😊
  • @MichaelWynneCAS
    Great to see your cart set up Curtis! Smart, practical and powerful!
  • @JustinGladden
    I love it when other pros show me their gear and setups ... I don't know why anyone would consider it a "flex." I haven't meant a single serious professional who isn't interested in how others find solutions. One day, I'm going to need to solve a problem that someone has already found the solution for .... e.g. that huge battery is a nice way to handle power.
  • @jazzstream
    Nice informative video, we all like to be inquisitive and see what and how others do things. A Happy New Year to the Curtis Clan.
  • @tokpamuz

  • @pagpapaitim

  • @GaryStockton
    So interesting to see what best in class looks like in terms of audio. My setup is much simpler.. but hey, I am not paid to do it, least, not yet. Ha Ha Thanks for sharing about your sound setup Curtis. Very cool.
  • Really pleased to see the Deity Theos is now your go to wireless system. I got mine a few days ago and there is always a worry I might have jumped the gun.
