Pity this *still* doesn¹t have a 1K tone generator at say -20dB, allowing you to properly calibrate the input levels and replay of your recorder, which almost certainly doesn¹t have ganged controls. The Sounddevices 788T can do this, but others can¹t. Missed opportunity.
well, since the box produces b-format, the calibration of the recorder is not quite as critical as with (say) the tetramic. but yeah, a test tone wouldn't have hurt :) i usually use it either with unity gain line inputs or with PGAs, so its absence doesn't bite me much. you could get one of those phantom-powered XLR test tone plugs to align your 788T before you plug in the soundfield.
