Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What is the recommended micro sd card for the zoom f3?

A: You can use a memory card like the SanDisk 64GB Extreme UHS-I microSDXC Memory Card (B&H # SAEMSD64GBG) with the Zoom F3 Portable Field Recorder for approximately 11 hours and 34 minutes of recording time in WAV format at 32-bit / 192 kHz.

Q: 3. Can you use this to make a soundboard recording? I'm trying to plug into the soundboard to record a band?

Q: 4. Will this work with a Sound Devices 302?

A: This bag is made specifically for the Sound Devices Mix Pre 3, which is smaller than the 302. The Porta Brace Silent Audio Organizer Case for Field Recorders, B&H # POAO15SILENT would be a great option.

Q: 5. It states this can accommodate L series sled option. Will it actually fit with 1 or t2 np batteries in sled while using the Mixpre-6?

A: Yes it does. I just picked up the L-series sled and two Watson NP-F770 batteries (4400mHa) and have them installed on the Mixpre-6 in the Strut case. It's hard to tell from the picture, but there is a slot in the bottom of the case through which the sled protrudes, allowing you to install / swap batteries, and two velcro flaps that wrap around the whole assembly. The flaps are long enough that they would easily wrap around two of the biggest L-series batteries (7800 mHa). The batteries recess quite a bit into the sled, so they don't stick out as much as I expected . . . and actually allow you to stand the mixer up on a flat surface which is a nice happy accident.

Q: 9. Does the pocket that holds four G3 receivers have an exit point for the cables that leads to the main compartment? Id like to use the pocket for the receivers without any cabling outside the bag.

A: The Strut bag for the MixPre-6 has a slot in the back of the pocket so you can route the cables to the inputs within the bag. Id assume the MixPre-3 bag is the same but you want to confirm. Overal Ive been very happy with this bag.

Q: 10. Have anyone tried to fit a 702 in this bag ?

A: The Strut STR-MP6 is a custom-fit field case for the Sound Devices MixPre-6 and the dimensions of the MixPre-6 are 1.4 x 6.5 x 4.6" (36 x 166 x 118 mm). The dimensions of the Sound Devices 702 are 1.8 x 8.2 x 4.9” (45 x 209 x 125 mm) which is larger than the MixPre-6 on all sides, especially for the length across which is 1.7" longer. The 702 is not going to fit inside the STR-MP6 case. We do have other cases that will fit the 702, like the PortaBrace Audio Recorder Case for Sound Devices 702, 722, and 744 (B&H # POAR7B) and PortaBrace Audio Organizer Case (B&H # POAO15XB).
