Even worse for connections, though: 4 XLRs and 4 TA3s - I had a six-way version made up for my 788 when I had a DPA 5001which was rather nice, but not cheap. Those multi-pin Lemo connectors are expensive.
But if you’re going for the Schoeps set up, what’s a couple of thousand bucks or so extra on top for the recorder and breakout? I’m sure someone will do you a really good deal on a package. I think you’re in the UK, so try the nice people at Pink Noise, SoundKit or Everything Audio, or the BBList for a used recorder: there are a ton of them around at the moment as everyone is either upgrading in the hope of attracting work when it comes back, or selling up because they can’t afford to keep waiting for the work to come back. SD 788s are often available used at reasonable prices. Or you could go for the Zoom F8, which is inexpensive and seems to have many good reports. I’m using a MixPre 10Tii with my OctoMic and am pretty happy with it.
