Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the 788T/788T-SSD. The ultra-compact 788T records and plays back up
to 12 tracks of audio to and from its internal drive, CompactFlash, or external drives, making fi eld
recording simple and fast. It writes and reads uncompressed PCM audio at 16 or 24 bits with sam-
pling rates between 32 kHz and 192 kHz. The time code implementation makes the 788T ready for
any recording job-from over-the-shoulder to cart-based production.
The 788T implements a no-compromise audio path that includes Sound Devices' high-performance
microphone preamplifi ers. Designed specifi cally for high bandwidth, high bit rate digital recording,
these preamps set a new standard for frequency response linearity, low distortion performance, and
low noise.
With documentary and ENG mixing engineers in mind, the 788T is very small, while still being
feature-rich. No other recorder on the market matches its size and feature set. In addition, its learn-
ing curve is quite short-powerful does not mean complicated.
