About to take possession of a BMPCC 4k, I was thinking of adding yet another audio recorder to my stable for compact external audio recording synced by timecode to P4k clips. I'm thinking this would be very useful for those projects where I shoot sporadically throughout a day, such as on vacation for fun projects: I've long wanted to avoid having to hit record on cam and audio recorder or, worse, forgetting to do the latter in the heat of the moment.
Wouldn't it be great to record external audio triggered by the cam so that, at day's end, I would only have to sync the same number and length of external audio and cam video clips in a click because they're all stamped with timecode? I thought the SD MixPre 3 was the answer, delighted that it seems to be the only audio recorder (I've found) that accepts camera record triggers AND timecode over HDMI.
But then, this thread... I'm hoping that BMD and SD can nut out the record trigger for both devices to work in harmony. I don't think I'd hesitate to buy a MixPre 3 if that happened.
