How to camouflage mics and gear
« on: April 23, 2012, 03:24:13 PM »
hi guys,

can you give me advise on how to effectively cover a pair of DPA 4021 for stealth taping?
I usually cling my DPA 4061 to a bag, in a way they can not be seen. But with DPA 4021 that's a whole different story..

Also what's your experience with smuggling your gear into a venue that's being security checked? Any suggestions?

PMs very welcome  >:D

I'd go ahead lock this thread before m0k3 gets here with his infinite Hasselhoff image if I were you ;)

Awesome. David said you were like The Wolf in Pulp Fiction. Shows up just in time with tons of gear, does a pro job, and disappears into the night! :-)

Scout your location, then pick the closest matching camouflage pattern. If you don't find anything there, another good source.
