Topic: Marantz 671 in the field... Part 2

[Rick]

yes. porta brace is expensive, but worth every dime. 

Definetly! I had one for my 722 and it was great. But I just wanted something I could use that would protect it from beer and still be able to see the levels Plus I like using a normal backpack. I feel geeky carring a portabrace/marantz type bag  So no need to spend that much.

it has 2 hooks on either side of the front of the deck where the shoulder strap would go. it has 2 red straps on the bottom on l/r. on the bottom is the velcro door to get to the battery compartment. it also has a "loop" of some sort where a fanny style strap would go.  and. of course, the sides are slit for access w/ velcro. it has the plastic clear cover for the front and you can access the top buttons no problem.

This is how I have the right angle Neutriks angled on my PMD671. I've had no problems.
Also, my complete rig in a Walmart fishing tackle bag.

Anyone have thoughts on me selling my v3 & picking up the marantz 671?

I'm sure some of you did this. If so Do you regret it?

I have the 148 to run in front of it.

Thanks

do it. seriously. get a stock one and run 148>671.

It would be really nice to record 24bit without the lappy.

do it. seriously. get a stock one and run 148>671. line-in is no longer "hot" after the oade mod.

What exactly do you mean by this?  I was under the impression that the Line-in was not affected by the mods.

wait. you are correct, sir. i had the "input lock" button on when i tried switching from mic-in to line-in. it was dark and i was in in a bar. however, in my living room w/ lights it is clear that line-in does, indeed, work. i was wrong. sorry for the misinformation. now i can get my comparison on...
