Sound Devices MixPre-10 II

Properties:

The MixPre-10 II is a 10-channel audio mixer and recorder and the successor of the MixPre-10. Compared to its predecessor, the MixPre-10 II convinces with a bit depth up to 32 bit float for an increased dynamic range, faster and improved hardware, adjustable limiters and increased output level to +18 dBu at TA3. The mixer has eight Mic/Line inputs via 3-pin XLR / 1/4" jack, an Aux/Mic input via 3.5 mm mini jack, which can also be used for timecode, a stereo audio output (L/R) via 3.5 mm mini jack, an X1/X2 audio output, a headphone output, timecode input and output via BNC, and two USB ports. The USB-A port allows the use of keyboard, thumbdrive, or Midi user interface, the USB-C port the use of audio interface (12-In/4-Out) and hard drive. The MixPre-10 II is powered either by eight optionally available AA batteries thanks to the supplied battery slide MX-8AA, the supplied AC adapter with 4-pin Hirose or one of the other optionally available battery slides. Recording is done on an SD card (SDHC / SDXC) and optionally simultaneously on a connected USB thumbdrive as a backup.
