Two important announcements about Pro Tools!

A free bonus for the sound community, courtesy of K-Tek Booms and "The Sound Guy" Thomas Popp. Tom has created an in-depth video tutorial about how to rig lavaliers on talent. Normally, Udemy charges $50 for online access to this series of video lectures, but Tom has graciously agreed to share this link that enables FREE ACCESS to these materials.Like so many of us pro's turned educator, the initial fees went more to cover his expenses than to line his pockets!

Audio Technica recently released their new System 10 wireless system in a portable, camera-mount version. Here is Fred Ginsburg's personal review along with links to his video tests.

We are happy to extend a welcome to members of the Cinema Audio Society, the Motion Picture Sound Editors, as well as to members of IATSE Local 695, the sound union. Arrangements have been made with these organizations to include subscriptions to this website as an added benefit of membership. If you are a member and have not received your log-in credentials, just send us an email and we will get you set up.

During the next couple of weeks, some current subscribers to EquipmentEmporium.com (The Craft of Production Sound) may receive an email or two confirming your new "paid" subscription to FilmTVsound.com   It may even include a receipt. Do not panic. Nothing has been charged to your account or credit card.

Welcome to our new website! For those of you who were expecting to see Equipment Emporium -- it has evolved into a new name, and an improved website. Membership subscriptions for the old site have been transferred over and should work seamlessly, but feel free to contact us in the event that you have any issues logging on with your old username and password.

The new site has lots to offer. Better navigation, a good search engine, a discussion forum, and Fred's Blog. For students and folks new to sound, we have created a virtual textbook in the form of an organized reading list -- with links to key articles. It can be found in the pulldown section for College Classes.
