Arco AS-A10G Overview

Built to serve the specialized needs of sound mixers and location recordists, the Arco AS-A10G is a durable and rugged bag that can securely hold a multitrack field recorder plus vital accessories while maintaining access to the recorder's controls and connectors. Its small size is compatible with popular compact field recorders such as the Zoom F8, Zaxcom Max, Tascam DR70, and Sound Devices MixPre-6 II. It has a weatherproof nylon shell and a clear plastic top cover to protect your gear from the elements.

By utilizing a rigid frame, the AS-A10G supports a full load without sagging or bending. Not only does it have a dedicated compartment for a recorder, but its additional space holds wireless transmitters, cables, batteries, and more. No matter how your field recorder is configured, the AS-A10G's six-sided access lets you get to the device's ports, switches, knobs, and buttons without trouble. In the likely event that boompole operation becomes your responsibility, there are two boompole loops for efficient deployment. Set the bag on its bottom feet, carry it with the handles, sling it over your shoulder, or attach it to Arco's AH-AHB harness (available separately).

For Small Field Audio Recorders
Compatible with popular compact field recorders like the ZOOM F8, Zaxcom Max, Tascam DR70, and Sound Devices MixPre-6 II.
All-Weather Protection
In case of inclement weather, the weatherproof nylon construction will protect your gear from rain and moisture so it stays dry while you're walking to the location. A clear plastic cover provides extra protection as well as visual access to your recorder so you can continue to work, even in bad weather.
Six-Sided Access
The AS-A10G allows access to your recorder on six sides so you'll be able to make direct connections even if the connectors are on opposite sides of the recorder. There's no need to loop cables around the bag or other components. Just open the nearest flap and plug in.
Rigid Frame
Don't worry about the bag losing its shape when fully loaded; it has a rigid frame to keep it from bending or sagging. This lets you pack all the gear you need without worry that the bag will buckle under the weight.
Clear Plastic Cover
Even during challenging weather, the bag's clear plastic cover offers simple and effective protection. Plus, it lets you view your recorder's metering and control panel for continued monitoring while recording. When the rain stops, just roll up the cover and tuck it out of the way.
Interior Elastic Loops
In the likely event that you need to carry wireless transmitters or receivers during the gig, secure them in place with the interior elastic loops. They're also useful for keeping cable clutter under control and preventing accessories from tumbling around.
Interior Lifts
The AS-A10G was designed with interior lifts to provide adjustability for the height of your field recorder, placing it at the ideal position for comfortable access. So you can keep your recorder's control panel within reach for trouble-free access to its essential functions.
Boompole Loops
Since you won't always have a dedicated boompole operator, the AS-A10G bag offers two touch-connect loops perfect for holding a boompole on standby. The touch-connect style means you can deploy it immediately when it's time to wield the boom and get the best mic position.
Accessory Pockets
Two accessory pockets grant generous space for common extras such as cables, batteries, and headsets. By keeping them and personal essentials like your smartphone, keys, and wallet in the bag, your pockets will stay light.
Optional Adjustable Harness
Add the optional Arco AH-AHB harness (available separately) to wear your AS-A10G bag. The padded and fully adjustable harness conveniently attaches to the AS-A10G bag via integrated D-rings. The addition of the AH-AHB harness positions your field recorder in front of you while delivering a secure and comfortable fit as you follow the action through long shoots.

I have a Sound Devices MicPre6. Is there a way to access the bottom of the bag to retrieve the SD card from the MixPre. Or, will I have to remove the MixPre to retrieve the SD card?
Asked by: David
I received the bag and there IS an access panel on the bottom. Unfortunately it doesn't allow adequate access to the MixPre, so removal will be required to access the SD card.
