Topic: Has anyone run a V3 with the 722 ?

[bkirby]

I have been meaning to do a test, and I'll see if I have time to do this either tonight or tomorrow night. If I put this on disc, will someone upload it for me somewhere?

MK21 > KC5 > CMC6XT > M148 > V3 > SD722
MK21 > KC5 > CMC6XT > M148 > SD722
MK21 > KC5 > CMC6XT > V3 (line out) > SD722
MK21 > KC5 > CMC6XT > V3 (24/96) > SD722
MK21 > KC5 > CMC6XT > SD722

It will be a home test and I will use the same song and make levels as equal as I can. I can also try this with the MK41 caps and the MGs. I will try and get this done ASAP...

I have a few shows in atlantic city this weekend that I need to be prepared for, and this is my first leap out of the dat realm. 

good luck with the new rig jon. they should be a couple interesting shows. looking foward to hearing the "tapes" +T

If you are into Panic at all, I just ran: Neumann ak40 > lc3 > km100 > Lunatec V3(analog out) > 722 @ 24/96...I absolutely love the V3(analog out)>722 combo...It sounds so sweet with the Neumanns...24bit really makes the Neumanns shine!!!

Put it this way...I dont own a 722, but since I have run it with the Neumanns and v3, I am only weeks away from ordering my own, but I am looking at the 744

thank you so much for the input, everyone

I've been basking in the single device glow of the 722..  How comparable is V2 > 722 vs. V3 line > 722?   I know that the V2 lacks the good meters of the V3, but that wouldn't matter with the 722 meters.

I still haven't tried mme > 722.  Anyone done any minime > 722 comps? How about 24/96 out of a minime via AES?

Somewhat related to this thread, has anyone noticed an impact from using simple XLR splitter cables?  Having two preamps wired-in changes the impedance of the system, etc, no?

in theory, the V2 > 722 would be identical to the V3 (line out) > 722, because the V3 has the same pre-amp as the V2.  in actuality, Mike Grace had to change one or two minor parts in the pre-amp for the v3, so it is not absolutely identical to the V2.  in practice though, it is generally regarded as the same pre-amp.  another advantage that the V3 has, in addition to the meters, is the ability to give a 16 bit S/PDIF output to patchers.  that may or may not be a consideration.

This is very true and when I get a 7series recorder, I will still run the jb3 as backup...

This summer I ran v3(analog)>744@24/96, v3(opti)>jb3@16/48, and v3(s/pdif)>M1@16/48...always good to have backup

I love the sound of 4022>V2>722

I've run 4023>V3>722 several times now and it's about as close to pure sex as you can get without ruining the resale value of your speakers.

I have a minime that needs slight work done to it, I'm thinking of getting it done, running that comparrison as well.  I will post about it when I do, but it wont be for quite some time, as I just spent a lot of money on the 722!

the 2 shows I will be recording this weekend

What, no update? 

How did you like the V3 line>722?

[Cooker]

better question: which drummer did you like the best?
