Hi Experts. I been using and learning about my Sound Devices 702 since it arrived two days ago and it is a fantastic machine. As I am still learning about the various set-up options, I am wondering if you think I am missing something real crucial: My recordings are GREAT, however, the volume is real real low. (when I look at my recordings using adobe Audition on my computer they are generally around MINUS 40) I have it on custom set-up with phantom power, Input 1 feeding BOTH tracks A and B, using a Rode NTG-2 at 24 bit depth and 48Ksample rate. The input gain on input one is pretty high --- I have it on the " 2:00 " position if this were a clock face. Oh, my limiter is ON. Do you have any suggestions?? I read the manual and it said that there are two different gain ranges a "NORMAL" and a "LOW RANGE", the Low Range says that is suitable for high SPL environments...BUT I cannot tell which of these ranges I have chosen. Many Thanks! Kevin Boucher

Hey guys, My first post here, so I apologize in advance for any lame questions... I just got a Sound Devices 702, and i'm planning on using it with contact mics for sound design, not so much for film, just mainly experimental audio recordings. I've got a pair of JrF C-Series contact mics, a Barcus Berry 4000 contact mic and a pair of Oktava MK-319 mics. After looking through the menu's i'm a little overwhelmed, and just want to make sure i'm setting it up to record my files a decent way. There are different options for signal routing and recording bit-rates and I was hoping I could get some suggestions on good settings to use. I do most of my mixing in garageband, and i'm not sure if the 24bit wav will be friendly with that. I know I need to just spend time with it, but I was just hoping for any helpful tips I could get for you guys. Thanks in advance for any help! I'm really excited to start doing some field recordings!

Hey Guys, I'm looking for the best way to do a headphone send from a 702, so the director can monitor as well. At the moment I'm thinking of taking a send from either the TA3 Master Out (using just L or R channel) or the Tape Out (not sure which would be better) to a Lectro LMa. This would then transmit to a Lectro R1a which the director would have his cans plugged into. Is this the best way to go about it? Would this even work? Do you have a better way I can do this? Any help is much appreciated! Cheers, Jo

Hey All, Just published my latest blog entry on Sound Related. http://soundrelated.com/the-tharu-pumpkin-man/ This is a recording I made on my last day in Sauraha, Nepal. It features one of the local Tharu villagers singing and playing an odd stringed instrument made from a pumpkin! Very cool. Enjoy! Jo

Hey All, I’ve just posted the next entry in my blog. This time I'm covering my time in the Jungle village of Sauraha. http://soundrelated.com/elephants-and-tigers-and-a-rhino-oh-my/ Elephant football and beauty pageants, canoe rides and jungle treks, wild rhinos and getting stoned off a milkshake is all to be had here. There is also a recording I made at the elephant breeding centre, it's a little disturbing. Enjoy! Jo
