soundslikejustin Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 This is true, exactly how I accomplished this with the SD552 (pan L). With the SD664 might be cleaner (less confusion for questionably skilled editors) and maybe less power to record just the ISO's instead of L/R + ISO'S. Just looking at options and flexibility here. Probably something to ask for in the 2nd revision of the firmware... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Ostroff Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Probably something to ask for in the 2nd revision of the firmware... Indeed - but SD is definitely listening as you would expect. Raised the question of whether or not unused/unarmed meters could/would be removed from the Main Screen, hopefully with the potential of increasing the meter size if just using 2-4 channels and not using X1/X2 and other channels, etc. Said it was something they think they could do and would look into it. Hopefully saves the Main Screen real estate for what is only being used, hoping for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing on my list, is to ask about the possibility of unlinking the LR record tracks so I can dis-arm the R channel (effectively giving me my usual mono mix + iso's) Another thing that would be fantastic: As I use a 788 as my main cart recorder... If the file structure was the same, I would love to be able to pop my CF card into the bag-rig (and back to 788 again), if needed, and continue recording to the same sound roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaAudio Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Yes- that's why they employed a Brit ....me!

VASI Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 He wants to use fader 6 to control the boom (which means you have to input via Input 6 as it's analogue) but asking to have input 6 be recordable as track 1 so it's the first thing the editor sees. - Ok.

RadoStefanov Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 ^^^^^^^ Same question, where is the 334? Will there be a smaller version of this unit ? Something like 4 inputs with a few auxilliary ins like the MixPre and that has a form factor similar to the 302... ? Same question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael C Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 If it's not too late, this is another vote for the "why no 96/24?" and, more importantly, "is that something that can or might be upgraded in the future via firmware upgrade?"

VASI Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Michael C this question about 96/24 was answered by Jon yesterday (?). It's not possible because the design electronic topology does not support this 96/24. I don't know why but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_bollard Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Maybe if you want 96/24 and beyond you need to spend the extra money and buy a 788. Why under cut their own product? And, as has been said over and over before, the 664 is primarily a mixer with a recorder built in and so 48/16 is perfectly reasonable. Could you imagine Apple bringing our the iPad mini with the same specs as the 10" iPad? I think not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Isaacs Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Playback - apart from headphones where else does playback from each track appear and is there any control over this? L, R, X1 and X2 tracks can be played back to all balanced and unbalanced L, R, X1 X2 analog outputs, the AES outputs and the HP outputs. All tracks L, R, X1, X2 and ISOs 1-6 (or 1-12 with CL-6) can be routed in any combination to the 8 AES outputs and HP outputs via routing matrixes Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Isaacs Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 When using digital mics with delay can this be incorporated? Are MP3's with timecode in the ID3 tag? Yes and yes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
