19May ART USB Dual Preamp camera mount adapter.
I had some time last night to build that 1/4 20 adapter for the ART USB dual preamp I ordered last week. As you will probably notice the 1/4 20 mount positions the unit upside down. That wasn’t my original plan, I actually wanted to drill and tap the case on both sides and just thread the […]
18May Zoom H1 shock mount adapter, first run.
I received a few more of the parts I need to build those Zoom H1 shock mount adapters I’ve been working on. I’m not really sure how popular these will be, so for now, there are 6 made up and ready to ship out. The price is $10 plus $2 shipping and includes the shock mount and […]
16May Juicedlink DS214 full Review.
I spent most of my Sunday testing and playing with the Juicedlink DS214, I ran a few test on my Canon 7d and on my Canon t2i with the Magic lantern firmware update. As a small audio amplifier and a device that disables AGC on the 7d it works great. The gain is very clean […]
15May Juicedlink DS214 adapter and Zoom h1 shock mount.
Finished up the Black versions of both the Juicedlink DS214 adapter and the Zoom H1 shock mount adapter, both of which turned out great. I added a cold shoe mount on both the top and bottom of the Juicedlink adapter, and cleaned up the design on the shock mount to include tie wrap holes across […]
14May Zoom h1 and Tascam DR-05 shock mount.
A few weeks back I mentioned that I was working on a design for a Zoom H1 shock mount. Now that I’ve got the 3d printer up and running I can test out my design. I must say it works very well. I added a cold shoe adapter to the bottom of the shock mount, […]
13May ART USB Dual Pre 2 Channel Preamp arrived
The Art USB dual channel Preamp showed up this afternoon. Before I even had a chance to test it out, I took it apart to see how hard it would be to add a mount to this little guy. After removing the knobs, rubber side pads, and a few screws you can see that there […]
13May First Makerbot print, Juicedlink DS214 adapter plate.
I stayed up tell midnight last night ironing out a few problems with the makerbot. Once I got the wires rerouted and a test cube printed, I decided to print out my first peace of handy film gear. I was complaining yesterday about the Juicedlink 1/4 20 mount being located on the top of the […]
12May JuicedLink DS214
Made it home and found the Juicedlink DS214 cleverly hidden under my doormat, good job UPS. $144 gets you a small AGC disabling audio mixer with pre camera headphone monitoring output. I haven’t been home long enough to test it out, but my first impressions are mixed. The 1/4 20 mount is in a position that’s only really useful if you own one […]
11May Adobe CS5.5 released.
Sure the video is a little cheesy but the new features in CS5.5 look pretty nice. The Warp stabilizer and audio features are the things I’m most interested in trying out. But I’m still not sure If I want to pay the upgrade fee, or hold out for CS6. Every adobe release seems to be […]
