Just missing a digital I / O, but hey, it's already not bad for what it can do the beast

UTILIZATION

Easy setup if you have already dabbled in real mixing desk or gear Yam (relative to the signal routing options)
Quite clear manual in all
For the rest, everything falls to hand, so well designed.

SOUNDS

Thereupon I do not épancherai me. This is the MD, so what goes in is found out. No built-in effects, fair opportunity to insert the first 2 tracks and send / return in the final mix.

OVERALL OPINION

Few years, I got secondhand for 100 €.
I was tired of lugging me with a Sony standalone player then my Denon DN-M2300R, good for transplanting a live set but not for the studio or model.

However since 4-5 months, the fader for track 1 trèèèèèès gets really tired, carbon track must be completely rinsed, and others will probably follow. To find the same faders on the other hand, must hang!

If future I remake that choice, I will take a MD8s, m ^ me but version 8 tracks. For what I actually just ca.
Only big downside, the price of which MD DATA cry. $ 9 / room on the bay and almost € 15 FdP ca sucks!

Wide range of connections, the output is + spares

UTILIZATION

Super simple to use, super comfortable working because everything is accessible in real time, no need to go inside in a lot of menus, the function punch I / O is a formidable precision, especially with the wheel muti super prcise function, to tell you, I russi puncher a very easy one note (in a piece satriani style ...), the screen is big and trs trs clear with several colors, for, a peek, know which track is recorded, for example (a is red ...)

I use it for a year, I am satisfied with TRS, j'aprcie particulirement its simplicity of use and its work function hyper complete (you can not find in notement s ries roland vs ...)
with 4 outputs and spares, it can be used effectively trs live (as squenceur audio example)

Stoquage of MD (2 tracks -> 74 min Max)
MD Data Storage (Sony 4-track -> 37 min Max)

4 tracks recordable and readable simultaneously.

UTILIZATION

It takes some time to take a beginners MD4s in hand, but the habit of mixing consoles to navigate now.

Dial The dial allows a rapid ACCS diffrent functions not directly accessible by the buttons.

The manual is a little abstract at times (especially the routing information: Cue Mix Stro ... This seen through the eyes of beginners).
A person served s'tant dj recorder will numrique by problem, and certainly no need to rfrer the manual for this.

SOUNDS

For the price and a small model house, the converters are good. It is difficult to judge if their transparency, because the gear is connected to MD4s gnral the same order (use a small home studio, model base, ... ides), and many Points are playing synthse signal its sound reproduction.

Do not expect to have the A / DD / A with a O2R96, or Apogee (the price of MD4s infrieur is most often .... ... ;-))

No effects intrgrs.

Dynamic rather bland.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for 1 year 1 / 2 (circa 2000)

+ The wheel is nice, the screen too.

- The Mid qualiseur is fixed times to get a lattence endrois of MD are far too long (waste of time), and delete an MD or copy tracks ...... takes the time to a good meal .... (Yes, almost ...). And then an MD Data is 37 minutes max ... 3 or 4 pieces and it's over ....

I tried 2 MODELS Fostex MD4 and used.

Pay the era 4600 F (2000 I think you it). Currently, with the consoles avnement numriques I concerver my lil on and wait a bit.
For those who want to take little things live (two guitars, a song ...) and keep track is nice, but should not ask the moon.

MJ: For the average secondhand (300) is very nice. (I will not sell mine, which can always dpanner!), I began the note!
