Description
Storage On Board
With the onboard hard disc drive, the 722 is always equipped with
available storage media. That is among many included features, along
with its small size and durable construction, provided by the 722 for
high-resolution portable audio capture. Sharing a common menu
architecture with the 7-Series family of recorders, the 722 is intuitive
to operate. Powering by external 10-18 VDC or Sony-compatible camcorder
battery allows flexibility for use in portable and studio applications
alike.
Data Storage and Transfer
The 722 records uncompressed PCM or compressed MP3 audio to its
internal hard drive, a Compact Flash card and an external FireWire drive
simultaneously. It can be connected to Mac OS or Windows computers with
FireWire 400 for high-speed data transfer.
7-Series Family of Recorders
The 7-Series Recorders possess unmatched capability in a compact
packages, each designed for unique user requirements. As with other
7-Series Recorders, the 722 can be used as a stand-alone device, fed by
numerous analog mic, line, or digital AES-3 outputs, or preceded by a
portable audio mixer such as Sound Devices' 664, 552 or 302.
