SRM 450 Precision 2-way, bi-amplified active PA speaker Forget about what other small PA speakers sound like. Especially forget what so-called "powered" speakers sound like. The active SRM450 is that different. It has tight, steel-fisted bass to below 55Hz and detailed, articulate treble out to 20,000Hz. Midrange is warm, natural, and free from ear-fatiguing harshness. Built-in monolithic FR Series™ 300 watt RMS bass & 100 watt RMS mid/high amplifiers. The SRM450 has astonishingly wide dispersion that lets your whole audience hear clearly, whether they're in the front, back, or way out on the sides of the room. And above all, the SRM450 cranks! Without a hint of distortion, it effortlessly achieves sound pressure levels that would melt conventional speakers into a pile of molten slag. |

Wind screens for the most popular models of pro-sumer camcorders didn't exist. So we made our own! The results were so dramatic that all our associates wanted them and we began production. Audio constitutes half of the video experience-why not protect against the sound robbing effect of wind? These small, unobtrusive, water-resistant covers can be left in place even guarding against bumps and their resulting noise. Bring sound security to those outdoor events that people treasure. You have to hear the difference to believe it. | ||

At Kessler Crane, we understand what it means to shoot on a tight budget without compromising your creative endeavor. We also understand the disappointment in current camera crane models on the market. It is this understanding that ignited the motivation to create a quality, affordable, easily functioning camera crane that tops others costing 3-4 times as much. With that in mind, we took a look at the competition. Then armed with our own experience, we asked customers what they needed in a crane system. We made note of every flaw in the current crane models and systematically removed them from our design until all that is left is sleek engineering! See for yourself.

The unit comes with FREE PC teleprompter software that accepts text files from any PC program such as Microsoft Word. The included teleprompter software displays smoothly scrolling text and also allows you to: set cue points to quickly access points in your script, change font type and size, change from black on white to white on black display and highlight specific lines or paragraphs of text. Scrolling can be controlled by the mouse or the optional wireless controller. The wireless controller allows you to control scrolling speeds up to 50 feet away without wires to trip over. With the wireless controller the on-camera talent can either practice reading without the need for an operator or can control their own scroll speed on tighter shots. |
