There are some strange AI "advertisements" showing up on youtube.

I preordered the PR2.  Because of that, I'll wait for reports on the PR4...

Isn't is supposed to have a digital input or was that just the PR8?

Input
2× XLR (Mic, +48V, Line, AES3, AES42)
Stereo 3.5 mm TRS

Adorama's specs also don't mention the 2 xlr inputs, so I think maybe it was rushed to go live first.

Okay, I was wondering if the digital input got left out!

I commented in a YT video asking if both XLRs could be used as AES inputs and they said yes. Still hoping that's the case.

This is the marketing claim on the preamps:

"The PR-4 features the brand new ReGain Preamps™, ultra-quiet microphone preamps that deliver up to 60 dB of gain, providing enough amplification to drive even demanding dynamic microphones without the need for external inline boosters.

"Achieving an Equivalent Input Noise of -127 dBV (-125 dBu) represents a significant engineering accomplishment for the PR-4’s preamp design. Measured under A-weighted conditions at 60 dB gain with a 150 ohm source, this level of performance places the PR-4 firmly in professional territory, delivering an exceptionally low noise floor that preserves detail and clarity even with low-output microphones."

when in AES mode only digital is supported so no mixing analong inputs and digi. thats a bummer for me wanting to use the sonosax on aes and take a board feed on 3/4 but its got a ton of features

I was checking out the manual earlier.

I love my dr100mkIII, but the fact that this has AES is a big possibility to move away from the tascam

A digital input isn't that big of a deal to me (nice extra)!  The Sax is the only preamp with digi out in production anymore.  I really like the size for running 4 channels though, if the preamps sound nice.  To be honest it's annoying that the release date is for preorder and nonrefundable.  Talk about stalling.
