Hi,
For a future project (TV commercial) I will work with the Sound Devices 702 Portable Digital Audio Recorder. It records the audio on a CF card. I also want to record on an external bus-powered firewire drive. I have a Lacie Rugged Hard Disk 500Gb.
Do I have to use a Firewire filter? I tested the set-up with filter, but my hard drive didn't seem to work. Without the firewire filter, it did work. What does the firewire filter exactly do? I didn't hear any noise using it without filter.
Can you guys give me any advice?
Thanks!
