Powering Your Sound Kit with the Core SWX Snap Mighty Battery

Описание: Our sound and lighting courses can be found at https://school.learnlightandsound.com!

In this week’s episode, we answer the question, “How do I power my audio recorder for longer than with the internal batteries?” One option is the CORE SWX Snap Mighty battery system. This unique battery can be expanded in realtime by literally just snapping another Snap battery to your existing battery. And you can hot swap batteries and power your sound recorder all day long.

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest courses cover Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini and an Intro to Izotope RX. See https://school.learnlightandsound.com for more info!
