You should send a service request though the support web page on the SD site.  They are very responsive.

Whats your problem?  Same as matt was reporting?

[MattD]

Do tell ... I'm going to a buddy's place down the street from me tonight. He's got a newer powerbook and a G4 or G5 workstation where I can try the transfer. If it works consistently there, I can probably assume my old powerbook is at fault.

aren't you getting a 722 ray?  why not just run your dpa's right into that for stealthing? 

the sonosax plus dat or jb3 is gonna be about as big, more cables, and you'll probably want a sbm1 in there too at some point. 

I personally do not think I could pull stealthing a 722 off. I wear my guilt on my sleeve, im afraid.. The m2 sounds sweet with dpas, and while i am over here in europe, I want to grab one, cuz im gettin it at a steal. I am gonna use the 722 for open taping only. The m2/dpa I will use for gigs over here in which the band allows taping but the venue doesnt. BY the time I get it, I will have practiced enough to have justified the purchase. The 722 will be here in may, and i will prtobably buy the dpas/m2 in july or so. Gonna get some more stealth work done with the core sounds first.
BUt justi have found my dream "open" rig in the mgs>722 i have found that same vibe in the dpa 4061>m2>jb3

The 722 is about the same size as a D7+preamp (MV100, sonosax, aerco).

I was putting together my little stealth rig for when the 722 would be too big.  With the extra wires required, the D7 and aerco take up just as much room as the 722.  The JB3 isn't much bigger than a D7, but you also have that optical cable flopping around.

Something to think of , for sure. I do love that combo though. I had to wade through a lot of tape of music i didnt like to arrive at my conclusion. SOmeone also mentioned a heat issue..I somehow thought the 722 was way bigger than it is I guess.

As fate would have it the 'Ghost' decided to work..  I just updated the firmware and the beast it 10 for 10 hitting the computer with a solid connection..

Call that one done..

I also registered the 722 properly today.. I can wait a little now.

Next issue - Wavelab 5 and creating a DVD-a...

Thanks !

The heat isn't much of a problem for me so far.  I wouldn't run the thing in my pants but once you get inside, you can set it loosely in a bag and it should be fine.   I'll have access to a camera soon.  I'll take pictures of the 722 against the other gear to show it really isn't that big a box.  I've completely dumped my idea of running the aerco->D7 now.  The 722 and my mics fit in a small eastpack waist bag so there will be no problem in low profile situations.

Isn't the nomad the size of a CD player?  I know that there are other high res options being released, but the 722 is the reigning champ for size.

Thanks Rick. +T and Kim Jong+T
I had no idee it was that small.

What was the issue? Not connecting at all? I'm on 1.24 and still having static issues during transfer. I'll report back tonight after I try different computers.

[CQBert]

I had one static issue and it was in the recording..  Played back through headphones and had it..  even before transfer.  Buddy ran back up so I just chalked it up to me messing up.
