eveloped with insight from the industry’s top audio engineers, the 442 Field Mixer encompasses
the audio performance, feature set, and mechanical construction demanded by those who rely
on audio gear for their livelihood. The 442 contains four high-performance microphone preamplifi ers,
multiple outputs, and fl exible monitoring. Its inputs and outputs, including direct outputs on each
channel, make the 442 at home in small “run-and-gun” applications as well as large, multiple input
productions.
The 442 incorporates a complete feature-set into a compact, functional design. With no hidden controls,
the 442's parameters are accessible from the three main surfaces. The highly effi cient circuitry allows the
mixer to be powered by either four internal AA batteries or external 5-18 VDC.
The 442, like all Sound Devices professional audio products, is designed to withstand the physical
and environmental extremes inherent to fi eld production. Its compact construction strikes the perfect
balance between performance, accessible controls, and durability.
