I actually use the TX660 on the bride. Depending on the dress, I usually ask the bride if she’s comfortable placing the recorder between her chest or one side of her bosom, and 99% of the time, she’s OK with it. Audio sounds clean. No ruffles, no noise.

I love the balanced approach y’all have when it comes to weddings. I think far too often we see people fighting hard against timecode for absolutely no good reason, but you aren’t Justin Porter as well with 36 mics (even tho I am a huge supporter of him and member). Balance has helped me in my personal life and thank you for encouraging this balance while still prioritizing quality and couple experience!

I bought this Sony TX660 a few weeks ago and it is a game changer for me

[brandonleefilms-weddings]

My TX660 saves me more than my F3, and TASCAM Pros on almost every wedding 👍 and the Bumblebee concealers make the wireless lava actually usable. Wish this video existed about 2 years ago, very valuable info here 👏🙂

Threw poor Nate right under the bus there 😂

[waynosfotoscameras]

I have also seen 3.5mm jacks on the celebrant's speaker, so this is another lead that would be necessary. A 3.5mm to XLR or the input source of your recorder.

I've been using a tentacle track e for audio for awhile. glad to see this being adapted more by people.

[NuCreationMusic]

Thanks for the info on audio. I don’t have any of that in my equipment but like you said everything will be like a slideshow with out audio…

[imnickcampos]

I LOVE the versatility of the tx660 and ease of use compared to my dr10l, just throw it on someone and go, even though the drl10l sounds just a smidge better.

[shaydseka]

I use the Sony TX660 for other reasons Lol. For getting important speech notes when writing reports, for recording someone in a criminal evidence set-up and for recording lectures and note taking later🔥

big flaw of current market now is hard to find any good and small audio preamp to have a clear audio at your camera ...

[jermainenaidoo]

Would love to see anyones experience with micing the bride with either the hollyland lark m2 or shure movewmic, and what their experience was

[bypacofilms]

What do you think about using Hollyland's Lark M2, attached to the main microphone?

[MacGuy]

Great video as usual! I'm using Rode GO II's as stand alone recorders for speeches and sometimes the officiant since they have dual track recording😊 I've bought two of those Sony 660s in the last 12 years of filming Weddings and I've lost both of them. They are so nice and small to hide but they hide from me when I'm leaving the wedding too😢

[ericvdl]

Bonjour Jake, You never use the white version of tascam for the bride right ? merci

[DavisSutcliffe]

Such an awesome video! Thanks for the detail!

[Rafa-nqvq]

Your lav mic choice? Defaults from dr10L or Track E？ or rode lav or anything else?

[bypacofilms]

I bought a wireless microphone, Lark M2, do you think I should switch to the Sony TX660? I use the Zoom H1N on the soundboard. What basic kit would you recommend for beginners?

[nightdonutstudio]

What is your take on using rode wireless pro or dji mic 2 transmitter alone as replacement for sony tx660. They both can be used as standalone recorder and are also very small if not smaller and record higher bit depth.

[LCreeper]

How do you use F3 with the Tentacle Sync? From what I was aware of they aren’t compatible?
