Thought I would give you guys a tour of my audio bag. In this video you see everything I use for audio except XLR cables which I keep in a different bag. In total, this kit would cost around $1250 new, but you could definitely cut some corners and you don’t have to have all of this to get started. I have linked all the gear mentioned in the video below.
