multitrack recorder that apparently not breathing necessarily quality (all plastic) but for its price offers interesting features and practical for recording.

mics for recording acoustic is correct,
being able to connect simultanéments 8 instruments (8 extra): very handy to save a particular group (provided you have a limiter)
operation by mains or battery, backup to sd card, its connection to PC (sound card or virtual drive) very useful

black dot:
- The quality of internal effects very average,
- Inability to integrate multiple internal effects on different tracks (only the first can receive internal effects. Way with a microphone that requires phantom alimenation is not possible to add a disto eg, phantom power is available only on track 6 or 7)
- The impossibility to combine internal post processing effects (eg you can not get a micro simulation effect male voice and a reverb! Must make a choice). say that these spots disappear when the treatment is continued on computer audio.

Note the internal post processing effects are applied to all tracks, only pre-treatments are only available on the first track

IF it again I will redeem it because it fits my needs for a reasonable price. Especially since I'm not a fan of records by computer (it's long and chaint with the mouse)
we can say that it is rather plug and record!!
