studiomprd Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 " Of course, a selectable HPF might be the option to have, either 80Hz or 70Hz. " selectable HPF options should include "no HPF", eh ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Campbell Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Glenn: are there plans for post-fader recording of ISO's in the future, or, if that is too much of a headache, anyway to allow recording of the two mono outputs (tape/mono) in the recording bus, so it could be a workaround (as in, route Inputs 1-4 to OUT 1, OUT 2, TAPE OUT, MONO OUT) to basically get four post-fader ISO's. Currently, you can record only record the main outputs (1/2). Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJBerto Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 +1 on selectable and bypassable HPF... I've been waiting nearly a year for this to release and just got all my money together to order one but a fixed 80hz HPF gives me pause and might just be a deal breaker as I do a fair amount of music and non dialogue. A continuously variable HPF would be my preference, but I'm sure that won't be in the cards. If it's possible to have a few presets, though, I'd like to see 60 80 and 120 or 140hz I'll be holding off ordering for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Feeley Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 I too have the MAXX on my extremely short list of items to consider buying within the next six weeks. But like Ryan, a fixed HPF makes me hold off. (Geez, I better re-read the manual). Would like several/variable filters. Will settle for 80Hz and OFF.

franky03 Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Just as a precision, there is a variable hpf: off, 40, 50, 60 etc What geluiswerdken is saying is that there is on the mic pres (aes might be different?) a gradual highpass starting at 140hz. Go reread his post. I did noticed it too, my main mic being a kmr81i (which has a lot of low end). But thought it was just the hp feed :-/ geluiswerdken, could you post a graph please?

soundslikejustin Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Glenn, if there is a fixed low cut on your pres, you should probably say so in your advertising material. Quoted freq. response on the Maxx web page is 20hz-20khz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Campbell Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 IT WORKED NEVERMIND! Old version of Zaxconvert, I needed the newest version. Thanks for the phonecall Glenn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Campbell Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I just want to say a personal thanks to Glenn. He called me up and walked me through it all (I had an old version of convert). I assume the DIT didn't eject the card properly from his mac, or pulled it early, thereby corrupting my mirrored WAVs. The marf files converted and everything came out pristine. Again, great customer service and product come through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like Ryan, a fixed HPF makes me hold off. (Geez, I better re-read the manual). Would like several/variable filters. Will settle for 80Hz and OFF. I'm mixing myself up (hardly the first time). Here's a highlighted excerpt from Page 41 of the Maxx manual (available here: http://www.zaxcom.com/instruction-manuals ): So the hardware cut is at 80Hz, right? And the HPF can be defeated (ie- turned OFF) so there's no cut at all? And there's "a software filter that is adjustable between 40Hz to 230Hz"? Just so I'm clear, is all that currently implemented, or not yet implemented in MAXX? Thanks. PS- Glenn, Howy, Jack, et al: no need to reply tonight or even this weekend. I can wait :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Norflus Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I think there is some confusion here. Both Maxx and Nomad have both a hardware filter as well as a variable software filter. The variable filter, when engaged, adjusts between 40 and 230Hz in 10Hz steps. Without any filter the cut is actually at 50Hz - not the 80 that Glenn incorrectly posted earlier. By the way I was curious so I tested my cooper CS-104 cut at 70Hz.

Jack Norflus Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I'm lost now Basically if no low cut filter is engaged the cut is at 50Hz. When you turn on the low cut filter you can then variably cut up all the way up 230Hz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Ok....so basically we need a way to turn off all HPF (off to off off). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundslikejustin Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Ok....so basically we need a way to turn off all HPF (off to off off). Hardware. Would need to go back to factory and be modded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJBerto Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I think a hardware hpf at 20 hz, and the variable software hpf would work for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Orusa Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Better yet is a software controlled hardware hpf, instead of the fixed hardware hpf. Is there any kind of default hpf on the AES ins for either Nomad or MAXX? Mark O. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
