The 833 offers six full-featured microphone preamplifiers,12 tracks of recording, six analog outputs, and an ultra-accurate time code generator. Features from the Scorpio recorder are also incorporated, including a new preamplifier design, dual SD card slots, internal 256 GB SSD storage, dual L-Mount powering and charging, and Dugan Automixing with up to eight channels in two separate groups mixed simultaneously.

Additionally, the 833 shares the same powerful processing and FPGA architecture as the Scorpio for complex signal routing, control, and signal processing. Any physical input can be routed to any track and the built-in three band EQ per input channel can be applied either pre- or post-fade. The 833 features both digital and analog inputs and outputs, has multiple powering options, and is compatible with the Icon Platform M+ Control Surface.

The Zoom F6 is an incredibly compact field recorder equipped with 32-bit float recording and dual AD converters, giving it a dynamic range so wide that even a channel recorded with the gain all the way down can be easily normalized back to a great-sounding track.

The F6 features six inputs, time code, multiple power options, and wireless control. It will retail for $649 and is expected to start shipping in July.

Pre-orders are open now and will be fulfilled strictly in the order received, so place yours now for earliest possible delivery!

Zaxcom just announced three new products: the Nova Recorder, URX100 UHF Receiver, and ZMT3-X Transmitter!

The Nova is a combination mixer, recorder, ZaxNet remote control and wireless receivers in one compact and lightweight device. It can record up to twelve channels of audio to two compact flash cards and has four mic/line NeverClip inputs, two line level balanced inputs, four external AES (of two AES42) inputs, and six analog/AES output buses.

It's scheduled to ship later this summer and retails for $4995.

The URX100 is a multipurpose UHF receiver that can be configured as a camera link receiver, an IFB receiver with walkie talkie interface or a standalone IFB receiver with time code view and delay.  

The URXL1 Lanyard will be available separately and adds a tethered control with a push-to-talk button, volume control, and microphone.

Both units are scheduled to ship in late April. The URX100 retails for $895 and the URXL1 is $49.

The ZMT3-X Transmitter adds a larger battery for up to 12 hours of runtime and 48 hours of standby time on a single charge to the features of the standard ZMT3 line, including simultaneous transmission and internal recording with time code, encrypted audio, ZHD modulation, ZaxNet remote control, and NeverClip. It has two Microdot inputs so it can tramsit input from two seperate lavaliers at the same time.

It's scheduled to ship in late April and retails for $1995.

Initial supplies may be limited and will be fulfilled first-come, first-served, so place your pre-order now for earliest delivery!

The Lectrosonics DCHT Portable Stereo Digital Transmitter is a compact wideband digital dual channel IFB or camera hop transmitter designed to work with the M2R receiver.

The DCHT transmits two channels of audio and accepts analog mic or line level audio via Y-adapter cables (sold separately) to the TA6F input or AES digital signals from a mixer to the AES input. It can tune across the UHF TV band from 470 to 608 MHz with adjustable 10/25/50 MHz RF output power. A 2-way IR sync port enables quick setup of associated receivers.
