The microphone list follows the production plan. Subject count, wardrobe, movement, room noise, camera count, timecode expectations, monitoring, backup recording, boom access, and crew determine the audio kit.
The buyer decision
State how many people speak at once, how they move, what they wear, where the recorder lives, and who is responsible for monitoring every take.
Count simultaneous voices, ambiences, playback, plant microphones, camera scratch tracks, and any communication channels.
Flag HVAC, traffic, generators, crowds, wind, reflective rooms, wardrobe noise, RF density, and limited boom access.
Confirm recorder, isolated tracks, camera feeds, monitoring, media, power, file naming, handoff, and backup expectations.
Before you send
Clean handoff
Send subject count, location conditions, camera count, recording workflow, monitoring needs, crew plan, and dates. GLM will review the requested audio path before confirming equipment.
Practical answers
Yes, but the written quote covers equipment only unless labor is listed. The renter remains responsible for setup, frequency coordination, monitoring, recording, media, and file handoff.
No. A request starts GLM's review. Equipment, dates, quantities, fulfillment, insurance requirements, and the final invoice are confirmed before a rental is booked.
