...PDR1000 beat D-10 PRO hands down. Back in the day.    I love my PDR 1000 for transfers.

I like the 722...but I have too many mics to NOT upgrade to 744T.


My 722 and AD2K are both available.

Just got my 702 and ran it at WSP in Wallingford on Tuesday 6 hours after it arrived on my doorstep.  I ran with out any issues (even using the supplied battery).

Love it - just wish SD made a 704  ;D

The Cadillac of recorders, built like a brick shithouse...

It's a nice deck, but Cadillac? OK, maybe it is the Cadillac. That would make Aanton's Cantar and Zaxcom's Deva the BMW/Mercedes I guess.  ;D

I see some folks talking about selling their 722's and moving up to a 744T.  I was thinking if I would want to do that I might just buy another 722 instead.  I can chain it to the other and have four channels with pre-amps.  I am pretty sure I would lose something in the "sell the old one/buy a new one" routine and would need that pre-amp missing for channels 3 and 4 in the 744T.  With two 722's the problem is eliminated.  Just a thought.

Cheers

True. But it is only used in film and video work anyway. And films where made for close to a hundred years without timecode, it only makes things a little simpler in the post processing.

I've thought about this route as well.  It's not a bad idea if you can pick up a used 722 at $2000 and a new 702 at $1875.

thats what id want to do as well, with 1 744t and an external preamp, you still have at least 2 boxes, with two 722's , you only have 2 boxes. and the batts are all the same as well!

Bean and all, that is my thinking.  Simplify it.  I know the 722, I have the batteries.  Why get a new piece of gear with a different sound than the pre in the 722/44T?  I like to reduce the chance for error to a minimum.  Other than eliminating myself, I think a pair of 722's would be the simplest solution.  And a good way to solve the four channel problem.  YMMV
