I use the Fostex 280 for over ten years and I am satisfied with trs. The report quality price of this device is great. The rducteur Noise (Dolby C) A model of its kind. This is my first multitrack digital and I am leaving with a new prt MODEL numrique brand (modern forces). Coupled to an MTC (sold as an option), he manages well with trs and it squenceurs rcupre blocking even when an audio track. It rcupre all of the same to the other three ping pong (not too much, because the breath increases each report). The editors are well, you can add effects collection outdoor, and monitors. Two headphone jack, a jack for pedals punch in and out, a processor to grate all this, a variable speed drive, external RCA outputs for each track without rcuprer qualisations ... etc.. .. In short, it's old high-end, but always appropriate for those who can not remain on the hardware used (for initial purchase, a not worth the blow today because the advance technological numriques!). Coupled with a PC to rcuprer recordings on CD, is the best! If c'tait again with ten years younger, I Rasht eyes closed.
