Sound Devices MixPre 3

Sound Devices MixPre 3 hire in Melbourne. A compact three input field recorder with Sound Devices Kashmir preamps, for shoots that need clean audio without a big sound bag. Your lower back will thank you.

Field recorder hire for a small crew shouldn't mean lugging a mixer you only use a tiny bit of. The MixPre 3 has three Kashmir mic preamps, the same low noise front end Sound Devices puts in its bigger recorders, in a box the size of a sandwich. It records 24 bit to an SD card and the screen is so simple anyone can pick it up in minutes. Run a boom and two radio mics, send a stereo mix to the camera from the output and run timecode in the aux input. Everything you need, nothing you won't use.

It's the recorder in our Indie Location Sound Recording Kit B and the one we pack when a job needs a light setup that won't slow the day down. Light, quick to rig and easy to bag up. Tested, packed and ready to go.

Good for: sit down interviews, podcasts on location, branded content, documentary, reality, short films, ambience recording and small crew jobs.

Or book the Indie Location Sound Recording Kit B and get it all in one bag.

Good to know: Comes with a power supply or a battery sled on request. No bag is included, so add an Orca OR270 when you book if you want it ready to wear. Need more than three inputs? The Sound Devices MixPre 6 II or the 633 is the step up.

What’s Included

• Power supply or Hirose sled where requested
