Oleg sorry to conradict, but almost all your alsumptions are completely wrong.
1. 3 preamps + two channels of out board analog + two channels of outboard digital= 7 channel mix, all inputs are completely routable to any output or to a mix. This means you could use this unit as a through put for any analog signal to a separate recorder either analog or digital into said recorder. While at the same time using another recorder to grab the preamp channels, while also using it to sync all sources.
snip---------------------------------------------
iam not talking about cascading , i can do the same with my 302( not digital in ) , so my dear i dont wrong - this is 5 channel not 7
about pre fader feed- i dont think so - the digiout and analog out are probably from the main bus , so you can send only the main bus out after ato d converter , no direct outs , what mean that everything come in going together to the outs
if like i can cascade 20 mixers in chain that not what i want do that , still dont know if the line ins could be adjusted at all , probably yes true the menu and if they could be sent left right separately , even that becomes not more as another feed input . not real on the fly adjustment inputs .
the digi in is nice , when you fined what to do with in the real world situation tell me :-)

2.Internal battery runs unit for 10hrs and it has connector for attaching a outboard battery. So you are not screwed if your battery dies, not to mention you could just open it up and change the internal very easily any way.\

i didn't see the internal battery , but i can suppose it is uniq to this recorder 9 i hope it li-ion so it doesnt loose capacity when yoou dont work and live much better in cold weather), so you need to waist 200 euro to have another . not so good if you have only one and you want buy another in the local hardware store .
external power - its external power , have nothing deal with internal batteries , i use all my gear with external power what doesnt mean i like be free use my gear with internal power i can find easily and for cheap if i need .
by the way - feel the pain of the m -audio users :-)
10 hours its good as it is , but its not enouth .
3.There is a connector that can be ordered with the unit that has 3 xlr outs on it, you could also have it terminated to rca there are also dig cables that can be ordered with varying inputs and out put terminated on them.
snip ---------------------------------------------------
i dont want inter-connectors that adding weight and become another weak point in the chain to run to the camera or recorder . we are not talking about sitting an jerking during concerts , but about running after camera and the tension you have on cables , less inter connectors -less chance get f...
as i said extremely stupid layout design for the main porpus that device was created
and iam talking from 20 years of experience in that kind of business :-)
We all need to read up around here before er jump to conclusions
I have been intouch with Aeta and am currently working on getting a demo unit sent to the US I'll keep it updated
yes , iam not jumping to eniyjing i just look at the pictures :-)
ask them to send you the signal flow inside the mixer and then we all be much intelegent:-)
exept the usb out which was probably made to voice overs directly to nle in news ( the reporters do it now on the fly directly to fcp or avid after they ending the piece ) or reporting to radio aplications .
