UTILIZATION

Downloadable leaflet in French.
Using fairly simple after reading the general description and the tracks are assigned to input channels. The backlit buttons allow you to easily spot. Live with this type of recorder (and more) found the simplicity and safety of the tape without worrying about computer synchonisation and configure.
TRIM preamp minimum sensitivity is +4 dBu to-12dB relative to full scale DAC 24 bits (internal preamp in this case 14dB gain). This is the configuration I use with preamp (equivalent input noise environment 128dBu)
The hard drive noise is low but audible.
Gates A, B, C, D must be used in order to be assigned to tracks 1-8, keeping the order from A to D.

SOUNDS

I find it transparent and dynamic of 90dB seems to me fulfilled.
The reverb and delay are configurable effective.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over 2 years mainly in live classical music.
Construction, especially electronics, and quality is quite remarkable for the price.
In this budget range is a choice that I do not regret it.
