@@Watcher3223 It’s a great machine. I love using it.

@@Watcher3223 You never know… maybe I have your old machine!

@@andystandys It's possible. But it would have had some upgrades that you would likely have kept, especially the VESA video RAM upgrade to 1 MB and an Intel Overdrive 486DX4 100 CPU.

@@tech-nomade Glad it was helpful. 👍

@@stef7768 I don’t know, for sure. I have no Android devices to test it on.

I have never tested that out, but I assume it could be done.

I haven't really experienced that issue with the work that I do, and I've never used a Cloudlifter before... It might be worth a try?

To be honest, I have not used a V-mount battery with my Z6iii. I have only owned it a couple of weeks and have only used it on one shoot, so far, on my gimbal using the included EN-EL15c battery. I found a comment on a thread regarding the issue you've brought up: "It will work with a v-mount battery using the USB-C port with a PD-designated USB-C cable. Data cables will not power the Z6iii while shooting, but appear to trickle charge it when off " Have you experimented with different USB-C cables?

@@andystandys Most of them including Nikon's own high speed charge cable that comes with the Z6III, no go. However, I have a replacement V Mount power distribution bracket coming that is specific to the wattage the Z6III requires for Power Delivery and charge. It has a single USB-C PD port that is supposed to output the correct MAh. But up here in the Northwest, Amazon is SLOW.

@@ShellyBHollis Good to hear!

lol, same

I can almost guarantee they made one for "Cindy." I only have my own.

How would you describe what these beats are?

@@martypyper3413 It’s a good one to start off with. It’s pretty simple to use.

Thanks for the comment!

Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm sure they did one for Dylan too!

In the machine's defense, most people aren't going to use it this way. Most people will just be making 4-4 beats.

@@stephenrosenberg2666 Unfortunately, no - it can’t do that.

I get it. I feel the same way about new country music.

Thanks, I appreciate the comment!

Most of the shots were just taken on my iPhone, but some of those behind-the-scenes interview shots or any shot that has a shallow depth of field would have been with my 28mm lens on my Nikon Z6II. The shot of me speaking with the purple background would have been my 50mm 1.8 lens.

Great use for the H6! Thanks for the comment.

I'm sure the Studio Record Executives went mad from listening to this song 1000's of times!

@andystandys Fair enough (lol), but who's paying who?

@@kryticaldepth5220 Sort of. You can manually turn the tuning knob on the bass drum as it plays, but you can’t record those changes permanently into the sequence.

@@andystandys Thanks !! I just bought one, and i love the sound, but i was a little bummed on its limitations.. I can definetely find plenty of uses for it regardless...

@@kryticaldepth5220 Yeah, have fun with it. It's still a great machine. You can really get some nice sounds out of it, especially if you process the outputs seperately.

@@YTPAJ12 I would recommend getting lavaliere mics for all five people. The Comica Lav mics I purchased off Amazon are decent.

The red cables are from DJ Tech Tools. Just Google that and you'll find their site. The gray braided cables are J&D brand bought off of Amazon. The XLR cable is just a standard cable, not sure where I got it.

@andystandys thank you SO MUCH! I'm definitely going to buy the red cables as I'm planning on using my Zoom H6 to record my band from the Venue's mixer. I bought the Zoom H6 after watching your video btw ✌️

@@nitecrwlrz Awesome! Glad you found the video helpful. I noticed Amazon also sells the DJ Tech Tools cables, as well.

@@IanRyanKirk Thanks for the feedback!

Glad you liked the video. No, the RD-8 only has the one set of sounds. You can tweak the sounds by turning the knobs, but they are only the classic 808 type drums.

@@andystandys Can you recommend me a drum machine (hardware) with real acoustic drum sounds?

@@Mackie-t9y The only thing I could recommend that I have personally used is the Roland SP-404 Mk2. It's a sampler, not specifically a drum machine, but you could load it up with any acoustic drum samples you like. It's a great machine.

@@andystandys Thanks a lot!

I agree.

Not at this time, but it might be something I would consider in the future. Thanks for your comment!

@@devine999 I’m really surprised they don’t sell it everywhere. Like, this is part of the culture of the machine. They would sell tons of them.

@@andystandys I just got back and I wish I had bought more. I didn't realize they were so expensive outside of Japan.

Thanks, glad you liked it!

@@erikarabie Great deal! Hope you enjoy it.

@@andystandys if I plug my 2 EV 635a mics into the XLR inputs will I be able to pan them left and right to make a stereo recording?

@@erikarabie Yes, if you plug your microphones into channels 1 and 2, and then hold the 1 and 2 buttons down, it will merge them into one stereo track, with the two mics panned L and R.

I'll have to check a walkthrough.

@@andystandys Try the sheriff's house. Wasn't there something behind the portrait? It has been so long, I am not sure I am remembering correctly.

@@andystandys Believe it or not, I did this on a Packard Bell with an 8086 intel chip. Before even the 286, again if I am remembering this correctly.

@@JosephJohn-fb9wx Yes, apparently there is a bag of silver inside a safe behind the painting!

@@andystandys As long as you save in this game you can experiment a lot.

It is, but somehow I find it enjoyable. That really set it apart from all the other Sierra games, at the time.

@@JosephJohn-fb9wx Admittedly, I’m not a cat person. 🤣

Yes, I will never forget this song! Thanks for the comment.

It's a Neewer Mini Tabletop Tripod that I bought on amazon, and a SmallRig Articulating Rosette Arm also from Amazon.

@@mattmichaela That’s what I thought, too. I guess they don’t want to bother with shipping it back and forth to fix it. Thanks for your comment!

@@andystandys the could have just sent the part.

@@mattmichaela Very true.

Yeah, it really is a lot of fun. Glad you liked the video!

@@UnderTheNorthStar Glad you liked it.

Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks, for this. I think you are right. Someone else had also mentioned cockroaches, as well, so it seems to be the general consensus!

@@commente Glad you enjoyed it!

The shotgun mic is a Sennheiser MKE 600, or equivalent. I think the one I have may be an older model. It's a good mic, but it isn't exactly cheap. You may be able to find a cheaper shotgun mic that works as well. The boom stand I have is a Cameron LS-65B Boom Stand. Again, if you can't find that specific one, you can probably get something very similar. Other than that, you'll need an XLR cable.

@@andystandys Awesome, thank you andy -- whats the length of your XLR cable? Also was the H6 recording separate audio from the camera or you synced through a cable?

@@GeorgeJefff I think I normally use a 25 ft. cable. I have a few different lengths. I sync the cameras to the H6 by running a 3.5 mm cable out of the Line Out jack of the Zoom and into the mic jacks on the cameras.
