Sound Devices lance le "SD MINI"

Un nouveau pas dans la miniaturisation des enregistreurs vient d'être franchi : l'ultra mini  de Sound Devices ne fait que 6 x 2,5 x 4 cm ! Le SD mini possède 6 entrées mic/line en TA3 et 10 entrées sur sub25. Le Cantar mini devient un mastodonte  ! Finit le mal au dos en configuration sacoche.

Aucun réglages  ne se fait sur l'appareil : ils se font via l'appli Wingman sur un Ipad ou un Iphone du fabricant déjà utilisée pour la série 6.

Il faudra maintenant éliminer les prises micros et casque pour faire plus petit. A tester au plus vite.
