Lets hear about Myteks AD
« on: August 16, 2005, 01:21:12 PM »
I am curious about myteks stereo 192. Anyone have any experience with this thing? What kind of voltage requirements? runtimes? And of course the sound?

Swanny, see Mr. Scott Brown. This will be particularly interesting to you, because he runs 4022's. I have only one mytek tape, but it's a smoker. warren and friends, split like 10' on the balcony, I *believe* that Scott ran 4022>v3 analog out>mytek. I really like the sound. Muj has run one extensively as well, I believe.

yep, 4022 > v3 pre > mytek a/d.  i LOVE it.  very detailed, transparent and pleasing to the ears.  runs on 8v and above

but if you order one, be sure to have michal remove the phase inversion on one channel.  they seem to be shipping with one channel inverted.

How much do they cost? I am seriously considering this one... Would it be hard to adjust the gain with a pre like the m148?

i think it's around 1300 now.  but the main thing: it's 24 bit ONLY. no 16 bit from this box.  it's juts a sick box that does 1 thing and does it very well

and it's variable gain, so as long as the 148 was hot enough you'd be fine.  i don't believe the mytek will add any gain, just subtract..

I gotta say, the few recordings I've heard V3 > Mytek sound *excellent*!  If I had the cash, once I get a 24-bit recorder I'd consider getting a Mytek one so I can run V3 > 16-bit and V3 > Mytek 24-bit.  But alas, I don't have the cash.  And besides...I'm currently schlepping two full sets of gear around (AKG C414s > T+ UA5 > JB3, Schoeps MKx/KC5/CMC6 > V3 > JB3), so it's not like I need more gear to carry around!

What is the advantage of V3>Mytek over V2>Mytek? Is it because the V3 is easier to power?

It isn't easier to power.  No real advantage other than...it allows 16-bit output from the V3 as backup/patch in addition to the 24-bit Mytek.  And if you've already got the V3...why trade it in for a V2.

um.....and it's not like you need two complete rigs either, Slutinder. ;) ;D Get rid of some of that gear and get yourself a Mytek and a Flashtracker. ;D

I guess I was thinking the V2 needed a 6V SLA, but there probably isn't a reason you couldn't power it off a Walmart battery with a 4pin terminated cable. Just seems like most people seem to run the V2 off a SLA. Good point about 16bit. I was just thinking that selling a V3 and getting a V2 would make the Mytek more affordable, but if you've already got a V3 it would be nice to be able to run backup and give patches. Thanks  :)
