Lectrosonics For Pittsburgh-Based Production Sound Mixer Chris Bell
ProSoundWeb: Production sound mixer Chris Bell, who mixes TV movies, commercials, documentaries, corporate video, and sports events in and around Pittsburgh, is a long-time Lectrosonics wireless user who recently added a DSR digital receiver to join his SRc and SRb slot-mount receivers and a stable of transmitters that includes the DBSMD, SMV, SMQV, and SMWB.

Working with the elements always adds another layer of challenge because everything is so uncertain. Without good equipment, it is almost impossible to get a good quality sound and it is super interesting, for me at least, to read about how industry professionals deal with these challenges. I think that what Chris Bell said about investing in good quality equipment early on is super super important and spot on because it’s the good equipment that will last you a lot longer than cheaper quality equipment even if the good quality equipment is second hand. Another thing that popped out to me when reading the article was how being in a city affected the sound quality. I am almost positive all the skyscrapers and densely crowded buildings would have an affect on the sound quality and I think that is another reason why having good quality equipment is so important and it is good to know that Lectrosonics is a reliable brand.
