    Looks good, but it would really be a game changer if it had 32 bit float and recording while transmitting. Not sure why these companies aren't walking over Zax's dubious patent. Maybe because they're smaller and afraid of litigation? Rode and Zoom don't seem to be afraid...

      Yes, disappointing to be sure. Recall that this product was announced over a year ago. Perhaps 32 bit wasn't a thing two years ago when this product was in the planning stages. I expect it would have it if it were developed today. Non-32 bit will quickly become a non-starter for many.

        Game changer doesn't really have much meaning anymore IMO.

        I used their connect system recently. It was a bit of a letdown as far as line of sight dropouts. I often couldn't even be on the opposite side of the transmitter because even the subject's body was too much, something I've rarely (or never) experienced with my sony system.

        I know this is a different product but I'd be testing before purchasing if possible.

          One of my audio guys just ordered the deluxe set to try. He said, “I can afford a $750 mistake”. I mean, heck, that whole set is less than half the cost of one of our single Lectro transmitters. And B&H has a pretty generous return policy, if he really doesn’t like it.

          He ordered it mainly because he’s looking for something small to throw on Alexa mini’s... It still amuses me that usually the more expensive the camera being used, the less they care about (quality) audio going into it.

              Its even though it doesn't out of box. That problem is rectified very easily.

                Because the big-budget productions still understand the traditional mentality that the camera captures images and the recorder captures sound. They're put together in post.

                  Looks like they have come to an agreement with Zaxcom on the patent:
