Gotham's own Peter Schneider, Jim Guzzi, and Christina Z. Wittich returned from IBC 2013 festooned with the latest from De Bijenkorf and a whole host of videos covering some of the neatest and newest from the show!
We've pulled aside some videos below or you can see them all here!
Fair enough, but we can at least capture it for further study. See what Timecode Buddy, Ambient, and Rosendahl were showing off at IBC 2013!

Gotham is now stocking the Tascam DR-60D 4 channel mixer/recorder! It joins our arsenal for DSLR operators searching for a more professional audio solution. It is well centered, balanced, and mounts to any DSLR via 1/4"-20 mount.
Our demo setup above is the Sennheiser MKE600, Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, and the Tascam DR-60D. Adding a single wireless receiver would be over-capacity for this rig and it would prevent it from being able to sit upright safely.
If you want to put it in a fanny pack, the "hold" switch will keep your levels to let you focus on the shot. Alternatively bring your best friend/sound mixer and get cozy with coiled XLR and 1/8" TRS cables whilst you both monitor audio from your respective machines. Tascam has used super-quiet pots and contour buttons, and the "monitor select" button is a quick way to monitor each channel or channel-mix separately for superior level mixing.
With another set of batteries to worry about, I would avoid phantom powering anything, AA powered shotguns are ideal. Green Note: My trusty rechargeables would not power the DR-60D.

Based on reports from the field and through Sound Devices close investigation with Intel engineers, the PIX-SSD5 hard drive, also known as the Intel 520 drive, has the potential for drive failure or data corruption when used in a PIX-CADDY. This failure is most likely to occur when a drive is initially connected to a computer or when left idle while connected to a computer for an extended period of time. While these conditions are rare, Sound Devices recommends PIX users of the PIX-SSD5 (Intel 520 drive) take one of he following actions:
