the FRC8 is almost the same size as the Mix8 , but a lot thinner
Trade off for the short faders,is getting a lot more of control, in fact you can control everything of the F8 from the FCR
Was more referring to the previous quote saying : Since its not a transmitter its not really stepping on any patent. Its just another recorder as far as anybody is concerned.
What about those who invested in the Schoeps Super CMIT when it was released (and is as expensive as the DNS2 unit) and are providing noise reduction as well and are probably not getting any extra rental as well and could use a standard shotgun instead ?
