Richmond purchases linear solid-state Nagra portables

Nagra-Kudelski has delivered the first two production models of its new Nagra ARES-BB solid-state, stereo desktop/over-shoulder recorder to London-based Richmond Film Services.
The units – with serial numbers 001 and 002 – were hand delivered, direct from the production line at Nagra-Kudelski’s Cheseaux factory in Switzerland, by International Sales and Marketing Manager Gérard Beuchat and International Regional Sales Manager John Owens.
Commenting on this acquisition, the latest in an unbroken series of first production Nagras, stretching back to the NAGRA-D, Richmond Film Services’ Nigel Woodford said: “It’s become quite a tradition for the first two Nagra production units to find their way into our inventory – and with good reason. The ARES-BB is another example of Nagra recognising what’s needed, what’s possible, and then building it to last. The result is a very light, robust, good sounding and easy to use recorder, well suited for radio reporters and sound effects recording.”
Richmond Film Services operates one of the world’s most extensive collections of Nagra recorders, with over 50 machines, including both working models and lovingly preserved ‘historical’ machines like the Nagra III. New additions include another two Nagra V location recorders - purchased to meet rapidly expanding demand.
