Understanding Body Mic Battery Packs

Video Transcript

"Here is another thing about being careful with the wireless mic is that it has a pack. That pack has switches and a battery. So if you're working with a professional sound engineer they probably checked that battery but even with really good professional sound engineers I had to put a battery in my pack in the middle of a show or had a tech person come crawling up to the stage all wearing black and hand me one to sub out. I can put in my own battery most of the times, I'll hand you one ready to go and that brings up a good point. First about the pack if I do a summer salt the pack is probably going to be flying unless I have a really good attached sound belt of something that they use in the theaters. Like wise if I have a wrestling match or do some physical comedy with somebody and scrape myself with against the back wall, I'm liable to miss up the wire coming out of it."
