Audio Equipment

Here is how the picture comes together. Audio gear reliability is non-negotiable on a production set. In Canada — where shoots can take place in the controlled settings of a Vancouver soundstage or in the open, wind-exposed landscape of the Arctic — the demands on location sound gear are major. Our audio gear inventory covers the full range of pro sound recording and wireless systems, from compact location packages suited to two-person documentary crews to multi-channel wireless rigs set to covering large drama sets or live event shoots. All gear is kept, frequency-planned, and tested before dispatch.

Here is what we have to work with. Boom Microphones give the primary capture tool for most dialogue situations. Our inventory has hypercardioid and super-cardioid options suited to differing acoustic spaces. Wireless Microphone Systems and Wireless Systems allow talent freedom of movement while delivering clean, broadcast-quality signal to the recorder, and our team handles frequency planning to avoid interference from other radio sources on set. Location Sound Packages bundle recorder, wireless transmitters, and receivers into complete, ready-to-deploy solutions for shoots that need to move fast and efficiently between setups. Audio Monitoring gear makes sure sound recordists and mixers can review their recordings accurately in the challenging acoustic conditions common of Canadian location work.
