Storage SD (SD 1 new éco! now costs less than 20euros!)
2 tracks recorded simultaneously, (8 + 1 and Masters) x 10 virtual tracks per track ... plenty to get started!
Lacks a USB 2.0 connection, but the SD card + the soft Cardmanager work perfectly!

UTILIZATION

To die for:

A pure beginner can get by with just the first 10 pages

BLUFF really!

SOUNDS

Converters? dynamic? not know (yeah, see above: I am a complete novice)
All I know is that even the Guitar and Bass effects are satisfactory.
I, who is accustomed to working in repeated and on stage with a Korg 1500G Boss ME8B and where I have all the sounds I am fond, I have not even tried to plug it into the beast!
Easy navigation through menus, various sounds and good quality ... no problem for a machine so compact!

OVERALL OPINION

Proud owner for 3 days of my first MRS 8 digital recorder, I was totally baffled by the extreme simplicity of its use: I had never had the opportunity to record my work, or even to use a bar ... and that's only 2 hours, just after reading the "OVERVIEW" of the manual, I put three pieces in a box complete (except voice: I must learn to sing!)
Even the install of Cardmanager went well and I have converted my first song to WAV on my PC!
I just had the opportunity to see it work its cousin, the BOSS BR 600 ... but it had neither the XLR input (I work a lot in acoustics) or the ability to create bass lines from BAR module (even if only for troubleshooting)

A quality / price ratio in my opinion totally unbeatable, recommended for those who like me dream a little easier to keep track of their inspiration ... this precious mechanics will help you go faster and and will take you farther than you do the 'Imagine!

A choice I would do it 10 times ... to provide around me!
