Converters: trs well

Dynamic: ok

OVERALL OPINION

2 years of use

no problem

I prfre particularity: easy to use, start-up, flexibility

I like the least: there's no bote incorporates rhythm! it's a shame, compared to a machine much worse (the BR8) that in a possdait.

quality price ratio trs INTERESTED especially now: used 600!

I would do this choice. We recorded our first album on it. C'tait a model, but the record company found the model good enough for the press as well. The album is Submitted in all stores in Belgium, has had good reviews trs of the press, no worries vis vis the sound ... The gear used for this album:
- Two microphones AKG C3000 (in overhead for percussion)
- Two SM58 microphones which were removed for antipop congas
- RODE NTK microphone lamp for voice, acoustic guitar and other acoustic instruments ... etc. ....
- Bass DI
- TL AUDIO prampli fatman 2

That's it! To save the bass drum, we used an AKG C3000 in the coated fabrics for vibrations: it is DIY, but costs the country as www.dinea4.be charcoal on our site, we are happy with the sound of GC .

We currently prpare 2nd album on this machine: pq to pay a studio as we have here the flexibility to work wherever you want, whenever you want. We buy qd even a micro GC D112 (AKG) as there will be more battery as seen in this album.
