I've been traveling more often recently, plus I've had a lot of gigs that only require up to 3 tracks. So, I decided I could use a recorder that was smaller and lighter than my 8 track Sound Devices 788T. I purchased a Sound Devices MixPre-3, an Orca OR-27 bag, and an additional Tentacle Sync-E timecode box. The result is a much smaller and light weight recording rig that has industry leading Sound Devices quality sound with timecode capability that will run for a REALLY long time on a single NP-1 battery. The only down side I've found so far is that the recorder doesn't have a secondary drive for backup recording. It's not perfect for everything, but it's more than adequate for a lot of things.
