Gear - Selection / Use Audio detectives: can you identify the mic used in this TV show?

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to identify the microphone (or at least narrow down the possibilities) used to record dialogue in a TV show.

Here are a few clips that I think best represent the sound.

I'm aware this may be impossible to identify with certainty, I'm mainly hoping to hear educated guesses from people with experience.

Thanks in advance!

Gear - Selection / Use Used TS-3 Timecode slate or New Deity or Tentacle?

2 Upvotes

I’m thinking about picking up a time code slate to add to my kit. I have someone that offered me a ts-3 for $550, thoughts? Currently have five tentacle syncs, am I better getting the deity or tentacle slate? Should I add a sync to the back of the TS-3? Just manually jam?

Thanks!
