    I've had two years now. I bought used for 180 euros, the guy who sold it to me did not know if the party worked magneto ... Everything works actually. The engines are fatigus, I often help with the fingers to launch them.
    There is nothing I do not like this magneto. If not we quickly completed the 8 tracks.
    Before I was working on a PC. Incommensurate. Less than ddu possiblit was digital but the sound is undeniably the charactre.
    I rachterais without hsiter. For those who make the Deep Funk 60's / 70's style is what you need !!!
    Lately used to store a battery for the big nag with fairly cheap microphones (T-bone ...) and compress Behringer while arinject in Pro Tools. + Ben is that …

    I have this since magnto prs of 20 years. It's an unstoppable machine. I use it in sync with SMPTE ATARI (Steinberg Time-Lock) and it gives me any satisfaction. I love the mixer, trs pro with qualiseurs parameter. I pass a 4-track K7 YAMAHA MT44 this machine and I stood in 8 tracks, more than enough for what I record. I'd pay the epoch around 22,000 francs nine. It was an investment that still works perfectly ... Super simple to use (I also have a 4-track MD much more complex to use). Trs a beautiful machine.

    I use it for 4 months with a ladle

    I like: in a unit, 8-track tape magneto 1 / 4 inch, table 8 inputs with high quality parametric equalizer, a VU meter per track plus two master pure, natural compression of hell, no the galleys of the patch, ultra fast and easy to use when we took the stuff, it really is plug n 'play. And how dynamic the band! his little ledge skye, its backlit VU meter ... he has a fucking mojo!

    what I like least: uh ... I know. Oh yes, the capo of the magneto should have a little stick to keep open all alone, it is reombe sucks ... Letouchais the knobs is not the best I've ever seen. he weighs his weight too. Other than that ...

    before I had the tascam tascam 424 and 688. the 388 is the 688 Pro version. K7 is replaced by the band 1 / 4 ', the semi equalos parameters by parameters, the meters with VU meters, preamps with better preamps, etc.. aufinal not much to do so, we are in the high-end and it shows!

    with the experience that I would do well on this choice. I would say that if I had to buy one, I could make twice what I paid for first.

    last detail, attention is a machine that talks, especially if you use it with old tapes. tape in poor condition you off this layer of dirt on the read heads in less than 20 seconds more than you do a lot of machine! but with bands of good quality, no complaints.
