From professional audio recording to small-scale productions, the advanced 833 8-Channel / 12-Track Multitrack Field Recorder is the ultimate tool for high-quality, multi-source audio capture. Drawing from the success of the renowned Sound Devices 633, this sophisticated field recorder is compact and lightweight, making it the perfect companion for on-the-go audio professionals.

The 833 Field Recorder boasts a tactile interface complete with dedicated faders, trim knobs, and PFL switches, making it an ideal choice for run-and-gun bag use. It is equipped with 6 mic/line preamplifiers, 8 channels, and 12 tracks, offering ample space for simultaneous recording and post-production mixing. Its 6 analog outputs and ultra-accurate timecode further enhance its professional-grade capabilities.

Inheriting features from the premium Sound Devices' Scorpio, this durable field recorder showcases a new preamplifier design, dual L-Mount battery charging and powering, and an internal 256GB SSD. It also offers 2 SD card slots for additional storage. The 833 shares the same processing architecture and multiple FPGAs as the Scorpio, enabling full routing flexibility where any physical input can be directed to any track.

The 833 Field Recorder is designed with both digital and analog inputs and outputs, seamlessly integrating into your existing audio equipment setup. Its built-in three-band EQ can be set to either pre- or post-fade for each channel, providing on-set solutions to any audio issues. The Dugan Auto mixing feature automatically attenuates unused microphones in multi-microphone applications, with the capacity to auto mix up to 8 channels at a time and mix two separate groups simultaneously.

Professional bi-directional communication with other crew members is made easy with dedicated coms and slate. Customized mixes can be sent to the camera or crew with multiple mix buses. With the ability to record to three media simultaneously, you can hand over SD cards to production while keeping a backup on the internal 256GB SSD.

Control the 833 Field Recorder via the companion Android app, SD-Remote, which offers transport controls, metering, and sound reports. For an instant mobile workstation, choose from one of several supported USB control surfaces for remote fader and transport control. The 833 8-Channel / 12-Track Multitrack Field Recorder is the professional's choice for advanced, high-quality audio recording and mixing.
