    The report qualitprix is ​​excellent. I use it to play the backing tracks. The only small BMOL is that it is not o put it when playing the guitar. On my Yamaha Silent dtourn I support a GPS fix and it's top.
    In addition to the BTE can be used as MP3 player.

    <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="wink" /> The sounds of drum and bank effects are basic but adequate for demos
    The interface is too minimalist. It was quickly losing its young, or even run over by a mistake made that we wanted to keep. And when it tries to copy / paste, it becomes problematic and anti-creative if you want to work song structure <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt="sad" /> Too small and too light to use at home. By plugging the headphones on one side and the guitar on the other, the Micro BR has a tendency to fall under the weight of cables

    Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    No, I just compared it with that of the sheet Korg D4. It has an XLR input as well, but its price was 50% higher

    How would you rate the quality / price?
    Expensive in absolute terms, but less than the competition. A € 100, we find that the Line 6 Backtrack, but which serves as a voice recorder for guitar

    With experience, you do again this choice? ...
    Basically, I'm glad it fits my needs. However, its interface and its propensity to fall is frustrating. I may be too used to the comfort of Cubase ... but suddenly, if I had to make another choice, I will test the Korg happy.

    I use it to quickly record the songs that pass through my head when I improvise at random from the studio. the result is audible here: http://audioblog.arteradio.com/theelectricmoon/ sound quality seems quite convincing for the price of the machine.

    I use very little of the internal microphone is especially sensitive as discussed below, to the extent that records the clicks trigger my rig kontrol even when the amp is loud enough!

    I find it very easy to take over: once to read the manual for the basics, the rest is really intuitive. Special mention for the tuner, very convenient. It seems that all cards are not compatible but I have put in a 2GB lying in the closet and it works impecca…

    The main drawback that I found is the lack of rechargeable battery and the fact that the taking of power supply by 9V battery will not charge you put in (it's two separate power supplies, a 3V and 9V ). Incidentally the amp simulations are correct and effects without internal means - but hey who cares, just hook up your usual effects in the guitar input and voila! Too bad only in passing that the line input is stereo.

    I use it for 1 year. my ex who made the korgd4 me.

    It takes a little time to get used to the easy. Since it is compact trs, its functions are superimposed.
    I find Gnralement trs well.

    But its functions is still quite limited, for example, impossible to record multiple tracks at the same time.
    Systmatique must master the tracks one by one for used elsewhere on the computer.

    Either we CRER project or lump it well above all its tracks, to which end they masterisent to mp3 or wave.

    Another thing too, we can not do backup project, once the boss suprime even if MTIP is no longer recognized.

    Its internal microphone is of good quality but a little too sensitive to the same keys of the device.

    The batteries supplied are of good quality but beware, it is disables "the arrangements" prfournit which are useless or that are plutt Gnant.

    It comes with a 128 MB SD card, I recommend 1GB plutt, with that you be quiet!
    I do not use batteries, others say it's eating too fast.
    And finally, dising level, it is beautiful trs.

    I was looking for something that can register multiple tracks for rhythm .. ... ... with a solo by adding a bass etc..
    I had a choice in my price range between a tascam 4-track and br, I hesitated, but the holidays coming ... I started in the boss. Why? Since the move I wanted to record my trials, but what good is embedded hardware if it is to reproduce certain tones. The tascam to record, but can not reproduce a distortion or other sounds, by the boss has the same functionality against, but also reproduces the same effects as my old boss gx 700. I am delighted with the boss: there is a crazy number of effects, you can register, delete, mp3, play on his favorite songs ....

    It took me still play with the user manual QLQ days. There are no keys but not a lot of each in several functions. Count 1 week
    Can be a negative (not me) mandatory headphone (or baffle) the device is not equipped with an HP. Went on holiday two weeks Ms. was happy that I can connect on an output line out ;-)
    Perfect? It is always better for the price ..

    I use it for four months. I use it for home studio recording my songs.
    Before I used my pc with software adapted but I found it too "gas factory". The micro br greatly simplified my life because it contains everything I need to create my compositions.
    Being able to create his arrangements of batteries from existing patterns is a real plus.
    The microphone is very good. I do not use multi effects section as I plug the output of my amp directly emulated on the micro br. The realization of the compounds quietly without taking his head with vst software and makes it an excellent product.

    It is certainly not easy to take control early because of the number of functions and therefore the limited number of key date, but after some time, the navigation becomes very intuitive.

    My only regret is not having bought sooner.

    I use the Micro BR for about a year.
    I only use the programs submitted by the PC as Audacity etc.. but I'm not gifted in computer science and his general.
    Initially I found a lot of quality in this recording: you can do many things, great choice of sounds, possibility of track by track, direct drive, internal microphone and so on. Sadly you really tweak for hours and even days I say! I do not have much time for that is at once the galley ...

Any way I can not edit tracks on my PC (why I do not know not!) can not share with other musicians in my band, the sound directly with the internal mic for MP3 rehearsal 'is good but the result is that we hear nothing, c is too muffled and saturated. The unit I think is very good and reliable, we must be honest, but a more explicit instructions would be welcome. I'm too bad I would need a teacher to explain how the machine works ... I think buying an analog recorder that will be simpler!!

    I use it for over 2 years and is the only model I tried, I had inquired a little competition, but the Micro Br was best to satisfy my requests in view of its musicians characteristics and its attractive price.

    I find it really easy to use, it did not take me long to understand the principles of the machine was very "plug and play" for me. The features are absolutely brilliant, everything was at hand, distortions, some effect, a box mastering drum kits, a tuner, EQ, virtual tracks, a stereo input to retract the keyboard (it works for hell!) or a stereo microphone (which can be powered by the Micro Br, a microphone of good quality (I use it for acoustic guitars, recording "on the road" and …

    All my compositions go through this little toy, I even recorded some of my concerts, rehearsals, ... I use it a lot! The amp models and effects are good enough to develop his ideas, the 4 tracks provided are sufficient and the price is really low!

    I recommend it to any guitarist, singer (se), musician (not) who wants to offer a very good portable recorder, with great opportunities and great prizes! I remake that choice without any hesitation!

    I've been using it for a few months.

    I like the portable concept, the look, the sound, the virtual tracks and the bounce mode (that allows you to merge a virtually infinite number of tracks, it's fabulous).

    Cons: Battery operation time, integrated mic (useless because of its lousy quality).

    I didn't try other models, this one seduced me for its price, looks and features. It's exactly what I needed.

    Excellent value for money. You'll be able make good-quality demos pretty fast. The effects provided are very good and I get decent vocals with a small Sony stereo mic.
