have I missed the Nagra VII discussion?
« on: February 04, 2014, 04:09:48 AM »
I've gone back through a couple of pages of recording gear here and I can't see it mentioned...

Has this been 'about to arrive' for a while? I've never seen it before...

There was a thread around NAB last year that had pics and an initial impression. Haven't seen anything since then in terms of promo materials or whatnot.
"This is a common practice we have on the bus; debating facts that we could easily find through printed material. It's like, how far is it today? I think it's four hours, and someone else comes in at 11 hours, and well, then we'll... just... talk about it..." - Jeb Puryear

As of right now, there's not a whole lot out there at all, either here on ts.com or on the web.  I was REALLY interested in this when I was scoping out a new high end recorder.  I went so far as to contact one of the US retailers just before Christmas and inquire about price and delivery.  TS.com's John Willett (also a UK-based gear distributor) gave me some thoughts and helped direct me to a US distributor.  The price came in around $3100 for a base unit and delivery was said to be the start of this year, so if that's true then these should be either shipping or close.  I ended up going with a second-hand SD744T mainly because I found an awesome price on the 744 and that I didn't want to pay that much to essentially be a beta tester on one of the first delivered Nagra VII units.  But I'm still really curious about the VII and what it sounds like.

Ah, I see...!

Thanks TSN for posting that catalogue link- I'd missed that.

Interestingly bh Photovideo have it on pre-order and then it's timecode capable brother the "seven TC" which is a bit more.

Yes, there are a couple of options to the base unit, including adding timecode and a wifi card.  If I remember correctly, the fully loaded unit with both options came in around $4500.

I recently read on a French forum that the first one was sold in 2013, october (or october 2013?  ???).
