Recorder & Timecode
What I record on
- Sound Devices MixPre-10T (my go-to field recorder)
- UltraSync ONE timecode system (sync I trust)
My Kit
The gear I know inside and out.
Equipment I've spent real time with on set — reliable, familiar, and ready to go.
Microphones
Mics I reach for first
- Sennheiser MKH 416 (my main shotgun)
- Sennheiser ME66 (shotgun I know well)
- RØDE Lavalier II x2 (concealed dialogue)
Wireless Systems
Wireless I rely on
- Sennheiser G3 radio mic system (tried and tested)
- RØDE Wireless GO II (dual channel, solid backup)
Boom & Rigging
Poles and supports I use
- Ambient 3.5m boom pole
- Panamic 5m carbon fibre boom pole
- RØDE 5m boom pole
- Boom Buddy boom holder (saves my arms on long takes)
Monitoring
What I listen with
- Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro headphones (know these inside out)
Accessories
Extras I always bring
- Full XLR cabling (various lengths, never caught short)
- Professional lav mounting and concealment kits (URSA, Bubblebee — the ones that work)
What I Use It For
Where this kit has already earned its place.
Real projects, real experience — this is what I'm comfortable bringing to a set.
Short Films
Dialogue-heavy scenes, location changes, controlled dramatic work — I've done plenty of these.
Multi-Mic Scenes
Lav and boom combos, sync workflows — setups I've run many times and know how to balance cleanly.
Independent Productions
Smaller crews, tighter schedules — I know how to move fast without cutting corners on sound.
