The 664 KIT is a complete production mixer recorder kit, containing all the necessary equipment to connect and operate the 664 in a professional audio production environment.
The 664 Field Production Mixer is the ?agship in Sound Devices line of portable audio mixers. It has 12 analog inputs, four output buses, and records these 16 tracks to both CF and SD cards. This unprecedented amount of I/O connectivity and recording capability makes the 664 perfect for a wide range of production applications.
InputsThe 664 has six ultra-low noise, high-dynamic range mic/line inputs. These transformer-less preamps offer analog peak limiters, high-pass ? lters, input trim controls, and direct outputs. Input connectors 1 and 6 can be selected to accept AES42 or AES3 digital signals. Sixline-level inputs, 7 through 12, are available by reassigning direct outputs as inputs from the Input Setup Menu. With an attached CL-6Input Controller, inputs 7-12 have dedicatedfader control.
Output FlexibilityIn complex, multi-camera productions, output? exibility is essential. The 664 offers threesets of balanced left/right outputs. Twoadditional output buses, X1 and X2, appear onbalanced TA3 connectors. XLR and multi-pinoutputs are selectable to AES3 digital.
RecordingThe 664 can record all inputs and output buses, for 16 record tracks. Recordings are saved to CompactFlash and SD cards as either 16- or 24-bit Broadcast WAV ? les. Scene, take, track, notes, and timecode metadata are recorded with the ? le. All popular production sampling rates are supported. MP3 recording is available for transcription applications.
Integrated Time CodeWith the mixers built-in, rock-steady Ambient time code generator, multiple devices can operate in synchronization. The 664 operates as either a time code master clock or its clock can be jammed from external time code. A helpful time code compare utility shows the difference between internal and external time code.
Ease-of-UseThe 664 was designed with knowledge gained from the industrys top engineers and from Sound Devices expertise in portable mixers.Important controls are on dedicated knobs and switches, while additional features arequickly accessed through the intuative LCD-based menu control
