We stock a wide variety of mixer / recorders to suit any senario you may have out in the field, on-set or even at home! These products include audio recorders & mixers, fader panels, preamps and portable mixers.
Mixer / Recorders come in different sizes and configurations, from small handheld devices with a one or two channels, to sound bag-sized larger units with dozens of channels and some pretty advanced features.
These products are designed to be portable and easy to use, allowing sound professionals to capture and mix high-quality audio recordings on location with ease. They often include features such as timecode functionality, auto-mixing, 32bit float, and advanced routing options to provide maximum flexibility and control.
We offer a variety of different types of microphones, each with it's own unique characteristics and uses.
Shotgun microphones are commonly used for capturing dialogue, mounted on a boom-pole or a camera, while lavalier microphones are often used for their discreet size, making them great for hiding on talent, while still providing fantastic vocal clarity. Handheld microphones are useful for live performances and interviews, while boundary microphones can capture sound in larger spaces, such as conference rooms or in-car conversations.
Various microphone accessories can help with the environmental and acoustic issues while on location. We provide a wide array of wind protection and microphone suspensions to eliminate unwanted noise, allowing sound professionals to capture clear and quality audio that is critical to the success of any production.
Consumables are widely used in the film and TV industry, and are often overlooked, but are crucial for ensuring the smooth running of productions and the delivery of high-quality audio. Consumables are key items to minimise dialog replacement in post-production.
Tapes and adhesives are used to secure microphones and cables to actors and equipment. Straps and pouches to comfortably and safely mount wireless transmitters, while stickies provide a secure, invisible attachment for lavalier microphones. Noise dampening products help to reduce unwanted set noise such as footsteps, while cleaning and sanitation products keep equipment clean and hygienic. Finally, lavalier mounting and wind reduction solutions are used to minimize wind noise and keep lavalier microphones securely in place, and hidden.
Timecode solutions are a way to stay in sync. These products include timecode generators, sync boxes, slates, receivers, and purpose made cables that interface these products between cameras, wireless systems and recorders / mixers.
Timecode is a signal that assigns a unique time reference to each frame of video and audio, allowing for precise synchronization during post-production.
Timecode generators and slates are often used at the beginning of each take to ensure that all devices are in sync, while timecode receivers allow for wireless synchronisation of devices. Timecode equipment is also useful for post-production workflows, where it is used to synchronise footage from multiple cameras and audio recordings.
We stock a wide variety of powering solutions that are essential to the sound department for the film and TV industry. These products include rechargeable batteries, battery chargers, power supplies, and power distribution systems.
Soundies rely on these products to power their equipment, such as wireless systems, portable recorders, and mixers. High-quality batteries and power management systems ensure that sound professionals have a consistent and reliable power source throughout long shoots, allowing them to capture clear and uninterrupted audio.
With advancements in technology, many products in this category are now lighter and longer-lasting and even more environmentally friendly, thanks to higher capacity and rechargeable batteries.
Well-known crystal aging and reflow process nominal frequency displacements are no problem for BETSO time code products thanks to the possibility of software calibration.
GPS-1 module allows for the calibration of internal TCXO for time code related products for accuracy better than 0.1 ppm (typically 0.02 ppm).
Ultra-highly Accurate TCXO Calibration
The reason why TCXO calibration makes sense is its nominal frequency displacement after reflow process, when typically 2 ppm degradation of TCXO can be accumulated. In BETSO products, this sideways effect can be easily overcome by using the very easy GPS time base calibration.
After the calibration procedure, which is done during the manufacturing process for each related time code unit, TCXO performance is calibrated not only to meet its nominal values before reflow, but also to ensure that even better results (up to 0.02 ppm of time code accuracy) are reached.
In the field, TCXO calibration takes place due to TCXO aging parameters, which cause possible TCXO nominal frequency displacement along the age of each product. The typical value of this parameter is ± 1 ppm / year as a maximum value where usually less catastrophic factors apply. So TCXO calibration makes sense after each couple of years of product usage.
Worldwide sync to UTC time code
Thanks to the BETSO GPS-1 module, you are able to sync any number of BETSO time code generator devices anywhere in the world to the exact same UTC time code.
UTC time code is time code on any selected frame rate which is second aligned to world UTC - Coordinated Universal Time.
