ORCA OR-280 Reviews

Perfect for the MixPre-6

By Jason
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2025-07-16

I purchased the Orca OR-280 as an upgrade to the smaller Orca OR-28 I got a few years ago for my MixPre-6. The quality and fit of the OR-28 was was very good, but it was so snug that it was a little difficult to get to the power button or headphone knob. The OR-280 is a slightly larger than the OR-28 and it fits the MixPre-6 perfectly with plenty of room on either side to reach the controls. The quality is just as good as the other Orca bags I've had in the past. I would absolutely recommend this bag for a MixPre-6 user.

Overpriced

For the price this bag should have been perfect but it's not even slows. When you put it down it flips over because not in balance, empty and with gear in it. Also the bag is deform out of the box I tried to fix it some how but no luck. It's the sowing wasn't done properly so no way to fix this. I bought an open box at first and noticed it was defective from factory so return in hope to get new one been good but no luck. I would not recommend this brand at this time, I am sure they were better in the past but not now.

The official Orca website says this bag is compatible with the Mix-Pre 10 along with the MX-L battery mount. Does this mean it will fit two NP-F970 type batteries mounted at once?
Asked by: Ole Martin
Yes I have a MixPre 10T II and I got this bag and I have the MXL and 2 NP-F970 Battery 6600mAh 7.4v They are pretty big. They fit in it fine. I tweaked it with the lifters and all of that but eventually just let it sit on the MXL base. If you lift it very much you can't get to the headphone volume knob, which is part of the menu controls also. If it is lifted the headphone control is behind the upper frame. That said after 2 days of intense location work I realize there is enough gap if the 10T is all the way to the left, there is enough space to get your finger in there from the front.

ZOOM F6 will fit in this OR-280?
Asked by: Hardik
The ORCA OR-280 Audio Bag for MixPre-10 Mixer (Extra-Small) is not designed to fit the Zoom F6 recorder, which is very compact and will be loose inside. The recommended bag for the Zoom F6 digital recorder is the ORCA OR-268 Low-Profile Audio Mixer Bag for Zoom F6. See: https://shorturl.at/ZtA4x.

is there a difference between Orca Or-28 and orca Or-280?
Asked by: Dariusz
There is a difference between the Orca OR-280, which has a larger internal size and is optimized for the Sound Devices MixPre 10, and the OR-28, which is smaller, and designed for the Zoom F8, Tascam DR-70, and other portable recorders of that size range.

Will this work with an f8

Will this work with an f8
Asked by: David
Dimensions of the Zoom F8 are 7 x 5.5 x 2.1" and the interior of the ORCA OR-280 is 9.4 x 7.9 x 4.5" so the F8 will fit inside, but the bag is larger than needed. As a better option for a similar bag that is sized for the F8, you may like the ORCA OR-28 Mini Audio Bag for ZOOM F8, Zaxcom Max, Tascam DR70 & Other Recorders (B&H # OROR28), or the ORCA OR-27 Small Sound Bag (B&H # OR27), or the ORCA OR-272 Sound Bag for Zoom F4 and F8N (B&H # OR272), or the ORCA OR-30 Audio Mixer Bag (B&H # OROR30).
