Re: Sound Devices 788T now supports 192 KHz
I owned 744t for years and now have (3 years) a 788T.
I love the limiters on 788T and don't think they are worse than 744 ones. The sound of 744T is a bit different. May be this explains why people feel the difference in limiters behaviour? Also the A/D dynamic range of 788T is 123 dBA while 744 has 114 dBA. With this dynamic range I recorded several feature films without engaging limiters for a single time on my dialogs. Never got any distortion and I record at normal levels. 744 limiters: Analog (pre-A/D converter), dual-stage optocoupler and FET, -4 dBFS threshold, 20:1 limiting ratio, 5 mS attack time, 200 mS release time from Sound Devices site: The 788T’s limiters have been enhanced with firmware revision 1.76. The ability to adjust limiter characteristics provides the sound mixer with advanced control more typical in studio gear than that found in location sound recorders.

Re: Sound Devices 788T now supports 192 KHz
I still think 192KHz is overkill.

As to the value of high sample rates, I can hear the difference between 48k and 96k. I cannot hear much difference between 96k and 192 though. Why would you think limiters would not be useful for sound design? that is a curious statement to make I think... except for the fact that they are still unavailable on the 788t.... which even though SD claims the limiter circuit is pre a/d on the 788, it makes ZERO sense that they would still be disabled above 48k....

A mono Nagra is not stereo and it never will be. Wether it makes sense or not it's simply a restriction of the hardware.

E.g. in 96kHz, everything above 48Khz must be filtered. There are very few mics that go that high btw. So logically you would use SR of 96 KHz to record signals with ultra high frequencies contence . At this high frequency the energy of the sound waves is usually very low. A way lower than the threshold of the limiter if you'd insist to use it. Thus is my statement: limiter is needed for the higher energy lower frequencies sounds, where SR 48KHz is more than enough for superior quality capturing. Now, practically it would be great to have limiters at 96 KHz so one just can record everything at higher SR without thinking twice what content is going to be recorded. So I can admit that my arguments are based more on the theory than on a real life

probably the same outcry would happen. why not 5 limiters?! why 4 limiters? can't we have 4 tracks at 48k with limiters and the other 4 at 192k without limiters? why not enable the EQs on 4 tracks at 96k first instead of having limiters. etc. etc.
