The idea is to utilize camera/AV mics like the DJI or I also have a single point stereo audio technica, which I can mount on a camera tripod and use a lightweight stereo cable. The pre should be very small to fit in my 4U 104HP 'backpack' case.

My current setup uses use a Mackie 402VLZ and normal mics and mic cables and stands, but this is heavier, more cables, more complicated etc... Ultimately I'm hoping to connect only one power cable (the modular) and plug the mic directly into the modular.

It is bonkers. The backpack is a variation of the makenoise microsound and tape system with a 4ms wav recorder on the final output. I'm not that 'computerless modular' guy, but this thing is a soup to nuts musique concrete studio.

The microsound system was the first self-contained modular that made me feel like I could roll up and improvise for any duration of time. I performed at Harvard with it. 4U I can sling on my back and bike anywhere in Boston, but 7U, I can't.

Someone should make a 7U case with a pannier mount.

Tgr SUPER-Radwagon!!! You could have it mounted on the top of the rear cage to make it easy to park and play, and have a speaker on either side of the rear wheel instead of a pannier.

Sick! I've always wanted to take my modular rig up on a ride but I'm scared I'll break something important, even if I'm careful, you never know. I am actually recovering from a shattered wrist from a mtn biking accident right now, at least I'll heal. 🤣 Maybe I'll make my mother32 case a lil skiff

I'm recovering from a bike accident on Aug 3rd. I have no idea what happened because I have amnesia.

Oh my!!! Are you ok? See that's what I'm saying. My housemate had a similar thing, he was riding to work & just woke up in a ditch with paramedics over him. Luckily he had a helmet on. Had to have a major surgery. Then 4 weeks later this happened to me and I may need surgery on my hand now. 🤦‍♂️

I'm ok. Went to the doctor. No head injury. My helmet does not even have an abrasion. I have some theories, but I seem to be ok and I'm really done thinking about it. I'm also now healed up on this road rash side. Just putting it behind me. Sorry to hear about your hand.
