I use it for a little over a month.
I bought the stuff in complment fixed my home studio because I was looking for the easy stuff to carry and sturdy quality to record a jazz band in live conditions. I do not destined for the video recordings of stuff but only for music. I hsit with the new Tascam but I finally opt for the Fostex Tascam because the converters would lower quality with a lack of gain and breath (I speak as I did in the conditional not compared.
For the use to which I intended, I am totally fills + + +
The fostex is light but is not junk, it is simple and intuitive but more importantly, the sound is really top: with 2 mic trs average quality (2 audiotechnica ATM33a pice 150 euros), j 'I recorded the sessions of the jazz group to which I belong (a piano, a bass, a drum, a sax, a trombone) with a super satisfying rsultat: well equilibrated large reserve of gain, not a pet of breath, good dynamics. In short, exactly what I was looking for. I am sure that by using a superior quality microphones and working out the investment, there really the possibility to do a good job trs.
Using a 2GB card and working in 24 bit / 48 kHz, two hours of what is really trs than enough for one session and the quality is l. For food, I go through the transformer Fostex (100 euros, it verges on big scam ...) because in a studio, there are always outlets ... I'm not really concerned with the problem of lack of battery life reported by some.
In conclusion, I recommend without reservation this magnto those who want to record or concert music in a portable configuration. You will have the QUALITY and the ease of use.
The only default is the price of the external power supply is shockingly lev. Otherwise, I pay 1000 euros in the Fostex coupon PA Music Pigalle (across from Home Studio) and for the price, it me "filquot; a super practical bag Fostex + + + + which I suggest you purchase. For the compact flash card, it is unnecessary to obligatopirement brands recommended by Fostex.
