Sound Devices 833 multitrack recorderThe Sound Devices 833 is a professional tool for mobile and small productions. Like the popular Sound Devices 633, the 833 is small, lightweight, and compact. A tactile interface with dedicated faders, trim knobs, and PFL switches makes this mixer-recorder ideal for run-and-gun bag use.The 833 has 6 mic/line preamplifiers, 8 channels, 12 tracks, 6 analogue outputs and an accurate timecode reader/generator. It has many features in common with Sound Devices flagship Scorpio recorder such as the new preamplifier design, 2 SD card slots, dual L-Mount battery charging and powering, and an internal 256 GB SSD. Additionally, the 833 shares the same processing architecture and multiple FPGAs as the Scorpio and a future firmware update will enable it to work with the CL-16 control surface. This enables the 833 to be fully routeable and any physical input can be routed to any track. The 833 features both digital and analogue inputs and outputs and has multiple powering options so it will fit effortlessly into your existing kit. A built-in three band EQ may be set to either pre- or post-fade for each channel to tackle any problems directly on-set.
