Sound Devices updates its 32-bit float recording, and streamlined functionality, to give more flexible audio routing options for its users.
Sound Devices has released a firmware update, v10.0, for its 8-Series mixer recorders (833, 888, and Scorpio models), adding features based on user feedback. This free update introduces 32-bit float recording for ISO tracks, preventing clipping regardless of gain settings, and a new Daylight Mode for improved LCD visibility in bright conditions. Users can now rename record folders directly on the device, choose playback audio routing, and benefit from an enhanced SD-Remote app with a comprehensive Routing Matrix tab. This is great for production crews, to continue hearing live audio without interruption while the sound mixer can check playback of takes.
