henrimic Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 You are absolutely right. With AES input and TC included, it’s the perfect combo for a really light, no compromise recoding system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their current Tentacles are capable of outputting stereo though. 10 hours ago, daniel said: +1, yep, yes and definitely. I'm pretty sure so many of us would have bought 1 in a heart beat if had a built in recorder. I'm not going to say they missed an open goal because maybe there was something like a legal reason not do this - anyway here's to something like an R2D2 if ever happens. I'd say there was a legal (read: Zaxcom) reason why they couldn't: On 1/17/2020 at 9:19 AM, JAX said: Hello, The US version is the same as the European version, with the 136dB dynamic range. Enjoy!

If going that route, it may be worth reading the SPDR thread first.

chrismedr Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 CHANGELOG Added line out balanced (mono) mode interesting, so for a single mic it seems that it can be used as a balanced preamp now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbuerjes Posted September 12, 2020 Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 I made a housing (3 mm cardboard) for the M2D2. One side is as short as the machine is, the other three sides are longer to fit the bag and to protect the connectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igomarsound Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 as an early adopter (model number less than 300), I'm a bit sad to read that this mod cannot be installed on my device... But nonetheless, one of my favorite piece of equipment i ever had ! a real Couteau suisse (=swiss knife) ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Salles Posted September 19, 2021 Report Share Posted September 19, 2021 Only using one this year and I am very happy with it. I use it to override the crappy preamps of the 688 (in AES) and it feels and sounds like it is a new machine! 🤪 I use it for boom on 1&2 input set to AES3 so I can also switch to the Audio ltd A10 aes outputs for flying booms. No need to change anything in the 688. The only difference is that the M2D2 aes outputs the 2 channels are on 1 XLR (recognised for 1&2 on the 688 when plugged in input 1) and the A10 need the 2 XLR plugged in. Beautiful piece of gear!

They are by far my favorite sounding. But calling the 688 preamps “crappy” is pretty hyperbolic. Sure, they aren’t as nice and the 7 or 8 series, but very far from crappy.

Sorry I am french from Marseille, we are hyperbolic at birth I am told! 😅 Honestly you are right but I am so frustrated with the preamps of this otherwise great machine, they were such a drop down from the 7 series, I tend to overreact when mentioning them. Also, in comparison to the Sonosax, hm well... what would you say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scb Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 Is the sound on the pre/ad on this the same as the sx-r4+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebben Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 I really like the Sonosax and I use it as my computer sound interface. Word of warning about that though. Set the screen to automatically turn off as mine now has screen burn in. 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
