Value For Money : Excellent
This notice (also valid for the M208 and M216) toff will eventually have this console because I recently (and many things are unknown to me in this area).
My point of comparison is a Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro that I sold.

Console markets in 1985, the manual in 1987.
24 channels, including 16 in-line (back-in tape or magneto), 4 subgroups (or bus), a stereo master. Insert a track, two feedback effects (and many other things I do not know yet)

Between Jack and XLR.
Tape + in Subgroups in CAR

The semi-parametric equalizer (only medium)

No power supply fantme (preamps but I have to ca ...)
No onboard effects.

Action: 86cms/42.5cms, 13 cms deep.
Weight: 15.5 Kg

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is fairly simple. at least for now.
I use it to connect all my instruments, samplers + ... to record all this on my PC and my band magneto Tsr-8

The basic functions are very practical. Using the bus, Eq, insert, effects ...

The manual although English seems pretty clear but I did not read that trs.

SOUNDS

With regard to the sound,

Until now I used then a Mackie VLZ Pro 1202 that I found not bad at all for the price (of OCCAZ) but I must admit she can not hold a candle to this little tascam yet trs known.

Indeed, APRS have performed some tests: taking an Elecro-acoustic guitar + micro 700 Sct T-Bone, is your exact patant.
Catches have much more presence than the mackie, trs The sound is clean, warm and round Retailer, The Eq trs is effective without being overpowering and it did not seem there is more than a breath VLZ.

I imagine that the era, she was ranked among the consoles so-called "professional"
These recordings have been done on a PC via a card bad. I can not imagine your exact with my Tascam Tsr-8!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 weeks and I'm delighted!

Plus: The sound, the 24 tracks, 16 in-line, price, VU meters!

Minimum: seeking small bte I would say that 8 buses instead of 4 would not hurt, but only as good as I register ...

I prfre trs much my old Mackie 1202 VLZ PRO.

The ratio quality price is excellent.

This choice I would do without hesitation.
