Hey everyone,

So I recently ran into a serious issue while on a location shoot.

I've never had any signal issues with any of my mics before, but for some reason, I've been getting a strange, periodic popping sound on my ME66. I have it plugged into channel one of my Tascam DR-680 and the other channels are usually taken up by my Sennheiser G3s.

Will RODE WSVM windsock fit snugly on a Sennheiser 416?

I'm told by the Sennheiser distributor there are currently no stocks of 416 windsocks. RODE 's WSVM accessory windsock, compatible with the NTG1 & 2 and Videomic according to their website, looks like it might fit. However they don't seem to sell one compatible with the NTG3 which I gather is their direct competition to the 416.

Sennheiser ME66 problems

Hi i was loaned out a Sennheiser ME66 Shotgun mic from my work. The mic was working fine until the mic stopped picking up audio normally. We checked the XLR and the camera and another shotgun mic and the ME66 was the problem. You can hear someone if they talk into the front of the mic but it sounds like a whisper.

Mackie monitors or Sennheiser headphones?

I'm trying to do the best I can to monitor and mix my own stuff with a really low budget. I can't afford more than $200 right now, and I'm working in an untreated room. Through craigslist, I have the choice of a pair of Mackie MR5s or a pair of Sennheiser 598 headphones. They're the same price. Any recommendations?
