ADDENDUM 1: 6/23/04 INITIAL PRODUCT RELEASE: As you know by now, the initial release of the DEVA 4 and 5 does NOT include all the features mentioned in pre-release publicity and in this manual. This Addendum provides a description of the items not included in the initial software. ALL the features mentioned will be released via a downloadable software package as they become available in the very near future.
SOFTWARE UPGRADE PROCEDURE They will also be sent as email attachments to all registered DEVA owners. Once you download the file you must write it to a UDF formatted DVD/RAM. Insert the DVD/RAM into the DVD/RAM burner attached to the DEVA Fire Wire port. Update instructions will be included with the update files.
ADDENDUM 2: June 23 2004 Some software features have changed, or are in the process of changing, since this manual was written. This Addendum discusses those changes. They are in no particular order. REFERENCE TONE (12.7) The Reference Tone is 1kHz at 48k Sampling Rate. The tone frequency is purposely tied to the Sampling Rate to provide a quick reference to confirm the rate. At 44.1K the tone is 918 Hz, at 96K it’s 2 kHz, and at 192K it’s 4 kHz. EXTERNAL AES (12.2.
This new option allows you to enter the time of day and then jam the time code clock with the Time of Day (TOD) data. DUAL RATE TIME CODE A new feature allows the Deva to sync to one Time code frame rate and record another. For instance, you can input 23.98 time code from an HD camera and record 29.97 time code derived from it. The 2 frame rates will be in perfect sync matching up at frame one of each second. DEVA will hold perfect time code sync even when cycling power.
Introduction Welcome to DEVA 5! This manual describes the operation and capabilities of the most advanced, yet intuitive, field audio recorder available. Continuing in the tradition of the Deva 2 recorder and the Cameo mixer, DEVA 5 combines incredible capabilities with ease of use and a short learning curve. As you will see in the following pages, DEVA 5 is easy to set up and easy to adapt.
•Mic Power +48v Phantom •External disk interface IEEE 1394 FireWire •Head room: -12 to - 20dB selectable •Direct to hard disk recording with backup to DVD is the most reliable way to record location audio. The Deva recording system gives you peace of mind knowing that temperature, humidity, motion and environmental contamination have no effect on the recordings you will make to a sealed hard disk recorder.
•Sample rate conversion is a necessary tool for post. Only the Deva incorporates internal sample rate conversion allowing for simultaneous copies of production audio to be recorded at multiple sample rates. The Deva is also the only recorder that can record and playback at non-standard sample rates for any audio application. •The Deva has the ability as a location recorder to playback and record at the same time. This opens up many possibilities as a production tool.
