ORCA OR-280 Reviews
Orca is the best
I wasted my time with other bags. I should have gotten the Orca first. So strong and sturdy with loads of access panels. I use it with my MixPre 10ii and it holds it like a boss. Buy Orca, and skip the other brands. Orca clearly knows how to make an audio bag!
very fast delivery
very good quality
Moving up into the pro audio recording World
My audio production is moving up into the pro area with the purchase of the ORCA OR _280 to hold my new Sound Devices MixPre-6 II 6-Channel / 8-Track Multitrack 32-Bit Field Recorder and sennheiser mkh-416 shoot gun micro phone. The bag is great!!
Design limits functionality
Cons: only two pockets and two internal elastic straps, not compatible with Orca-39 wireless pouch so radios and batteries are a tangled pile of wires. The bottom hatch is indented/concave so the bag falls over when sat down. Pockets don't zip down and open enough to give good internal access. -changing Sony LP batteries on the MixPre 10 is a 9 out of 10 on the difficulty scale. The metal frame blocks the headphone jack and X1 X2 port. You must use a right angle headphone adapter. The MixPre 10 is a tight fit and the bag's metal frame also blocks the D knob on the upper right edge -although after removing the zelcro hanging straps and pushing the recorder to the left 1/4 inch you'll have a 1/2 inch gap on the right for a pinky or small finger to turn the D knob and adjust gain, with some practice your right thumb nail can be used to push in the center button of the D knob each time you enter a character for scene name, channel description, notes. Pros: Orca Lift is an excellent solution for mixer sag and can be customized to help keep the MixPre 10 crammed to the left. It can also be used to bring the mixer up enough for easy access to the D knob although mixer will stick out silly high and the phones port will still require a right angle adapter. The vinyl tubing covering the harness loops are impressive looking.
Fits the MixPre 10T well
What I don't like is that the straps that you can use to anchor it in place by the ears on top cross over the Headphone - Navigation knob. If you use the straps it makes controlling the unit almost impossible. Of course I can't find a tutorial or document on how you are supposed to hook up the straps so I might have done it wrong. In general lack of information on how to best use the bag is a gripe. The bag is well made easy to get at from any side - the construction is superb.
Well built solid bag
I have barely used this bag so my review is based on first impressions. I have a couple camera bags for gear, but this bag is a step above in terms of quality. I feel like I could drop this bag without worry about the contents being damaged. It is rugged and I suspect it is on par with their other bags for audio recorder use. This is my first Orca but I am blown away. As for the fit of the MixPre 10t, it fits, but I am new to this sort of setup, with only a MixPre 10t to my name, no lav mics, battery packs, etc at this point. There seems to be good room in the bag for extras no doubt. The one gripe I read about all other bags and the reason this big is made for MixPre 10t is the DC input plug on the bottom. This bag has a holder on one side that lifts the recorder up a bit so that there is room for the DC input plug without it being bent/broken off. I havent tried it out yet, but it looks like enough room for a straight on DC connection. I bought the DTAP to DC plug, and it fits fine in the bag, no bend/snag to it. There is enough room on both sides to access all the ports. I can even get to the dial, as small as it is, and I have big hands. All in all, I think there is no better bag for the MixPre 10 at this point. This is the bag to get if you own that recorder.
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.
Great bag
Perfect bag for the MixPre-6 and a few wireless mics, accessories, etc.
