I’d like to thank Nathan and the team at Wendy’s Broadcadst for all their help. They have been supplying me with custom cables, made to the highest standard over many year. The low profile connectors are hard to find, yet they normally ship the finished leads the day after ordering, often to studios or locations where I am filming and I’ve never had to ask for any adjustments or corrections; They are right first time, despite my requiring some unusual bespoke wiring. I’ve also benefited from real world advice about products and fault finding. Wendy’s Broadcast have made location sound far less stressful.
This 2-axes swivel is used for mic assemblies (Stereo Bar, A-RAY, etc.), which are suspended from a boom such as the Jumbo Series.
It ensures that the mic assembly always levels out horizontally independent of the angle the boom is set at.
When the boom is vertical the “MikeLink” prevents the microphone assembly from contacting the boom and thus making noise.
It also allows the microphone position to be set up at ground level and then be swung up into position.
