And do not forget to mark the cables with a numbers in the other
end in order to save fowl-up time in set-up situations. Too many
unprofessional recording units arrive in 20 different plastic bags
and something is always missing.
Microphones, microphone stands, cables and all other single
items with no attachment in one end must have their specific and
marked place in a flight case. And the boxes must have a detailed
list of content inside. These ideas about ”boxed recording gear”
have been developed out of experience by professional Sound-
rental companies- so take advantage of this knowledge and
design it to your own needs.
We will give an example of an OB and Mobile recording Unit in
6 flight cases - this solution has the advantage that any vehicle or
donkey can be used as means of transportation bringing the
mobile recording equipment out to the scene of action.

Outside recording equipment must be constructed to be able to handle rough transport and more
abuse than standard studio equipment. Some professional mobile equipment manufacturers and
rental companies actually build and solder electronic components according to military standards.
This helps avoid equipment failures at the most critical times, and in this configuration we have
chosen equipment with such a good on-the-road reputation.
