SOUNDS

The sound is really good value. I make homestudio for over 20 years and I bought the Zoom MSR-8 270 EUR on ebay and almost new. Use a good microphone (Shure Beta 87A BETA58 or better, a pre-amp [M-Audio DMP3 is really good value for money, watch it on ebay just to find o ca 150 EUR in France or Germany (m Voltage me - even made to jog - and the Germans are clean for biseness)] and you'll be amazed by the quality of the catch, especially if your budget is small - small.

OVERALL OPINION

I do a home studio + + + for over twenty years and PC for years. I bought the ZOOM MRS-8 CHRE few on ebay (280 EUR with shipping) for a "small" portable 8-track in order to work around saying tamps if the sound is not everything made the appointment. Worse, the machine is not only great practice dplacement (small, lightweight, runs on batteries and tranfo in obtion) but it sounds great (and breath). Do not forget a good micro (SRM 8 possde an internal microphone not bad for DPAN but not more), a prampli correct (M-Audio DMP3 such a good value trs Q / P ), even better if one has a compressor (the Prsonus Bluemax example is super simple and super effective and inexpensive) any fawn, three lments (micro - pramp - compr ) are still necessary even on recording a lot more upscale. For those on a budget Reduces [especially the "young p'tits" I am no longer a party (not because it's boring hlas not have money to live his passions!)] , go for it. Even if the outputs are and analog (RCA), recorded the final mix on a computer will be more than adequate. try to have the MRS-8 on ebay when one is ocaz Submitted (do not go to great del of 300 EUR max postage included)
I am so charmed by the little bug I think aqurir trs soon the new KORG D3200 (ze bomb when it seems the ratio Q / P unbelievable but much more expensive than any ZOOM MRS-8 m me) and use the PC for small alterations to the final mastering.
