List Of Most Common Musical Instruments

This is a basic power cord used for a myriad of personal computing equipment, peripherals, and musical instruments and amplifiers. I needed a longer cord for my guitar amp - this one fits my purpose exactly. Simple - no problems.

This was purchased to match the output from musical instruments to portable transmitters (ex - SHure BLX1). Works flawlessly, XLR in and XLR out. Will probably get a second for additional flexibility.

I use this product to photograph my ceramic musical instruments and sculpture. It gives everything a neat and professional look. An industry standard for photographing three dimensional art.

I normally use my MixPre 6 II as my primary recorder for violin, cello, and other musical instruments. However, setting up the MixPre is always a hassle, and I don't like how it has to be powered. When something requires too much time and effort, there's a tendency to hesitate in using it. Since getting this recorder, I can start my recordings within a matter of seconds (literally). I can easily bring it anywhere, and it has become my preferred device for sound recording. The sound quality with the built-in mic is excellent, comparable to the MixPre II (of course depending on the mic you use). It is better than the Zoom H6 I used to own, especially for recording musical instruments. I also have the DJI MIC 2, which is excellent for voice and highly portable. However, when it comes to recording musical instruments, it falls short compared to the PCM-A10.

I ordered these to monitor musical instruments recording and to watch music videos and movies on my laptop. The clarity and the power of the iLouds are outstanding. I added a subwoofer (usually not needed) to reinforce the low frequencies and I now feel like I have a home theater system. I highly recommend them.

The filters are a sound techs dream. Musical instruments, faulty mic lines, guitars, keyboards, and more, seem to be a sound techs plague. Plug these hum eliminators in and leave them in line. The cure is instant. Don't be a victim of high electrician wages to search for the ground fault, especially on older Churches. Our Church suffered from a lightening strike and resulting fire. Even though most lines were replaced, but others are now breaking down. Its fast and complete when dealing with HUM

Most of my caps are the slip-on type that's more common in large-format stuff, but I got these for some of my vintage Nikkors. I use a combination of a custom step up ring from SK Grimes and a B+W filter then I cap them with these caps. These look very slick, and they work well. I've tried some of the cheaper more generic brands, and these Nikon caps have smoother edges, have less wiggle, fit more flush, and have small details like the fact that the pinch flats taper outwards slightly so your fingers don't slip off the caps when you pick them up or remove them that make them so much better to use if you're busy and have things to do. Many vintage rangefinders have cloth shutters, so you can just cover the lenses with this to protect them when you're out and around.

Step-up rings are a common tool for fitting lenses and filters of different sizes. Most any will do, but some are better than others. Good thread fit is essential, but that's usually achieved. What the PRO Sensei rings add is a slight knurl-like grip which can be a help when unscrewing sticky filters. (Hint: don't over tighten them in the first place!)

Selecting a ballhead is now second place on my list of Most Daunting Tasks . . . just behind tripods. Most of the challenge was arbitrarily justifying the cost of higher-end items. No doubt, some are better than others but the huge range of choices mixed with undisclosed specifications creates quite a mission to accomplish. That said, purchasing the Kirk BH-1 removes me from the ballhead market forever as I'm sure it will last that long. Movements are smooth and precise with a 100-400 mm lens and it's solid as a rock when tightened.
