Sound Devices 833: Why do Pros Use Gear Like This?
Sound Devices has a strong history of providing high end audio field recorders for film and TV production., having won several prestigious technical awards. Five years ago, Sound Devices announced their 633 professional recorder/mixer with three mic/line inputs and three line inputs. Today, the 633 is a very popular recorder amongst professional production sound mixers. Many who work smaller productions use it as their primary recorder. Others use it as a secondary recorder in a bag when they’re not mixing from a sound cart on a larger format mixer.
And now, Sound Devices has released the 833 - their next generation, pro level, compact mixer/recorder. In this episode we cover two main questions:
- When is an 833 a better fit for the job versus a Sound Devices MixPre II?
- What’s new in the 833 versus the 633?
