RadoStefanov Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Thank you Richard. I hope the second set of outputs is not just a clone of the first one. As far as the rs422 goes, what I am looking for is a few more knob controllers. If it is possible to have a linear faders controller it should be possible to have knob controller for use in a bag. My usual setup will be 6-8 aes receivers. Another 2-4 knobs will be a welcome addition. A slate or com buttons is what will complete this recorder. But I might come up with a workaround. Regardless I put s deposit and am very excited to enter the Sonosax world.Latelly I have been working on a lot of high end documentaries and scripted so the sx-r4+ will be a perfect match.

Richard Thomas Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 It seems to be like the original setup, but instead of switching to AES out, the AES out has been moved to the AUX AES input connector on the other side and switches between AES in and out. Looking at the block diagram if you're running this it'd be channels 9 and 10 of AES you wouldn't get. If you want balanced analogue you'd still need an additional DAC. This would be fine for running to an F55/Amira on a cable or using a Zaxcom camera link, though. This might be a bit smaller than the AJA box: http://www.tnpbroadcast.co.uk/i-o-devices-converters-c167/converters-c26/dtl-broadcast-4610-miniblox-aes-to-analogue-stereo-audio-dac-p1892 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadoStefanov Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Thanks Richard, So will it be possible to assign 4 different outputs? If I remember correctly there was only 2 outputs in the mix menu at NAB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like that's correct- they'll need to change the software to support this too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Thomas Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Just a thought, the schoeps mini DA42 could do the job as a DAC too, with blocking caps in for the 10V AES42 power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadoStefanov Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 I know it is not likely to happen but something like this can really complete this recorder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Wexler Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 There is a new all-in-one device coming out from a company none of us have heard of. The RadoMix mk.I will have an integrated Multi-Receiver module (patent pending) that can receive up to 12 transmitters from Lectrosonics, Zaxcom, Wysicom, Sennhesier and Audio, Ltd. at any frequency over 8 blocks. It comes standard with a user-configurable hardware surface with only 4 knobs --- software command from any mobile device (iOS, Android and Windows Mobile) provides for additional knobs and switches to appear on the faceplate, with each addition the knobs re-size themselves to properly fill the space. Of course, each knob and switch can perform any function the user chooses from a list of factory defaults and future firmware updates will allow the user to assign any function they may find they need for a specific job. Speaking into the built-in comm mic, metadata is generated using speech-to-text with the text inserted in the file and distributed simultaneously via built in Wi-Fi network (RadoNet, patent pending) to any and all devices on the network.

RadoStefanov Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 The SX62r has the buttons already. I got a very good offer to buy the SX62R but it is way too heavy for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in very early stages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Thomas Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yeah I mean we usually need the TC Buddy anyways. I wonder if this will also sync through the same wifi without needing another one attached to it? Is that a little far fetched? I've just been on the Zaxcom site and seen that the new Oasis has a wifi controller which will interface directly with Movieslate 8. Can't see any reason why this won't be able to either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erkal Taskin Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 That would be wonderful. Maybe even total control from an ipad along with large meters. Shouldnt be so hard to mirror it all to an ipad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Thomas Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Here's the the audio ltd bracket idea- could run DC into the accessory port connector and to both binder connectors at the back. The R4+ is also slightly wider than the R4 so the bracket shouldn't protrude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadoStefanov Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 My setup will be the same with 2 rows of wireless on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Tresch Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 The SX62r has the buttons already. I got a very good offer to buy the SX62R but it is way too heavy for me... This is what Swiss TV use for their docu work. It's 2.2 kg. I don't know if this is to heavy as I use the R4. But I'm not a sound ingeneer and I use the R4 for a lightweight docu recorder. The 62R is actually smaller as how it looks in the picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Thomas Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Here's another DAC which may be used with the AES out to get 2x balanced outputshttp://www.grassvalley.com/products/sdm-771p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r.paterson Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 I'm going to try and fit my picolink in a full diecast box and see rf performance on the picolink I noticed spaces and doesn't seem earthed to casing so will give that a try before totally writing it off.

EG. a balanced stereo cable will give 2 channels of AES and a stereo return or even basic XLR for just the AES. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 5V supply too, maybe a USB backup phone battery type thing would work? Some of the PoE Dante boxes could be also work like this (and wouldn't need another power source), although they're bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
