I tend to agree, the few Red shoots I have done I have always treated it like film and used the 744 as the primary sound source. I also had issues syncing TimeCode to the Red, so again made the 744 the Master and jammed TC to a Deneke Slate for good…
I am on a shoot here in sweden using 744 and red.
No production sound on camera (as long as the customer is ok with that)

not nice, many settings reset after power down of red... I've heard that TC can drift or reset on red after power down too. I will shoot on red next month and I'm thinking how to do it. Do you think that recording sound on red is good idea? I was th…
