Title: Custom order recorders
Post by: Sean Gallemore on January 17, 2004, 05:20:49 AM
Hello Sound Devices
I would like a 722 without a preamp and in a shorter box so I can crotch it.
Thanx ;D

How do you want your box?

Grace preamps, Apogee A/D conversion (at 24 bit).... RCA inputs as well with adjustable channel delay (so you can run SBD+Mic mixes with no problems)... firewire, SPDIF, GOOD headphone amp, and internal batteries a la Oade preamps...

Oh, and good VU meters, too.

I wrote to them and asked the same question last summer because I didn't see the need to pay for/carry/power an extra mic-pre and A/D when I plan to use a V3 front end.  The response was, "how are you going to monitor"?

So I thought about that and realized that I will want some way to listen to the show while still on the HD, and there is no way I'm buying an external D/A just for my car/hotel room.

Also, with the internal power, all you need is the 722 and mics to record a show when you can't get the full rig past security.

EDIT:  It looks like they finally posted the mechanical specs.  With battery and connectors it is about the same face dimensions as a V2 but not as deep.  So you can crotch it and get admiring stares instead of horrified shrieks.

adjustable channel delay (so you can run SBD+Mic mixes with no problems)...

If you run the 744, can't you just do the matrix channel delay in post production?

I think he's just leggin ya ;), but it only seems like natural progression :D

v2 = power and pre
v3 = power and pre and a/d
v4 = power and pre and a/d and???
