Using the best equipment available allows me to deliver the best possible sound while having the highest level of reliability on location. When the job is mission critical, or if the talent is VIP or A-list you don't want to be relying on non-professional equipment with a questionable history. I've invested a lot of time and money into this equipment and maintain it meticulously myself or with factory updates. I'm genuinely passionate about what I do. I read manuals for fun. I'm constantly investing time into learning about new gear, concepts and techniques. Give yourself the confidence and security of knowing that your Production Sound Mixer has you covered and will have the right tools for the job.
