833

Weighing only 16 ounces, the STR-833 Ultralight Soft Field Case from STRUT is custom-designed to efficiently operate the Sound Devices 833 in the field for either FX or RX situations. Featuring a unique integrated carbon-fiber support skeleton, adjustable suspension cradle, and padded compartments, the case provides full access to the unit's controls and connections while protecting it from a challenging environment and impact. This system suspends the mixer above the case floor, leaving room for large NP-F style batteries. This is a case that allows you to do more with less. Less bulk, less weight, less time.

The front RX pocket can hold up to four Sennheiser G4 or four dual-channel receivers plus BDS , and has a wiring port to the main compartment, making cabling fast, easy, and very tidy. The pocket lid tucks neatly out of the way for RX work, or gives the pocket multiple uses for FX work. The pocket also fits the Sound Devices SL-2. The case is equipped with a combination clear vinyl cover for dust and rain protection, which converts to a solid Cordura travel cover to protect your valuable equipment in transport and hide it from prying eyes.

Zippered access points on the left and right sides let you plug in headphones, and make discreet wiring adjustments during production. The bottom battery wrap accommodates an external NP1. The case features double belt loops and 4-point harness attachment. The HAR-2 lightweight chest harness is included with purchase of the case. Made in the USA
