Internal disc drive with usb for backup

UTILIZATION

very simple, just need to book early but quickly assimilated.

SOUNDS

good internal effect, if the effect send is but you still need an external effect of internal quality surpassed those. Maquerais a compressor / limiter for mastering, has been corrected in the new version (neo).

OVERALL OPINION

OVERALL OPINION

4 years of use.
With my experience in profesional studio with high-end equipment (tape Studer, akai, dat, consol neve ...) I find this very protable multitrack honnète and surpasses many small home studio with computer (without the disorder and latance configuration) or similar equipment.
The only negative points most used buttons starts showed signs of fatigue, and the screen is small but I just remedy the situation with a VGA output to a computer screen.
If it breaks and I did not become a millionaire by the I rechèterais the same or newer.

A machine attractive

For all these details, read the manual instead, easily accessible and downloadable from the Internet.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is simple, if only one takes the trouble to read the manual carefully enough, which is well done. The first catch is easy, even for a beginner, I think (I speak of course of manipulation, not sound quality)
One branch (sizeable presence of a special entrance guitar / bass on the front), is interlocked, work based training ("rehearse") if necessary, we make the additional outlets, we listen, we equalized, we mix, we "mastered", all without BIG headaches. It is obviously necessary to say that finding the right sound, ask the right balance of...…

It is obviously necessary to say that finding the right sound, ask the right balance of fatally breaking his head a little, but for that, I do not see what else ...

SOUNDS

Not having used other comparable machine, I will not give an opinion here, but I will say that the dynamics for a machine of this price, I feel very good.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for years. NO major failure. Two-time glitches:
- The PLAY button transport has become difficult to engage for a few sessions ... puyis everything is back to normal.
- The hard drive began to produce a sizeable snoring after several hours of heavy usage in a room actually very poor ventilation, again, back to normal after rest of the machine and never a problem since .

I have tried or owned any model like this before, but a Tascam Portastudio 4-track cassette recorders very useful, but really not the same caliber.

Price / quality ratio UNBEATABLE in my opinion.

This recorder is not tiny but it is very transportable ... and then you have to think that moving is a real small studio (which is a very good recorder and an EXCELLENT "maquetteur" / notepad!), Even if we can not consider him to compete with the productions of the market, albeit modest.

I would do this choice? Very simple, and if he fails tomorrow, I bought one the day after tomorrow!

If you dig a little, there is a technology (opration a variable speed, pitch) I tried it works! Systm on backup, backup track by track or rglage master PC via USB is nice. We can also do it by burning to CD.

SOUNDS

The converters are of good quality I think? a limiter on each t between would be welcome (but for the price should not RVer)
the sound output is clean, the gain is correct, no breath, the effects are nice,
What are the top! prsiser must I use this console with synthetic sounds.
Roland TD12 for the battery, Fantom XR for synths and accordion numrique Cavagnolo Odyss3, microphone Rode NT1A for singing all control by Cubase SX3.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year, the time of my first album couraging

minimum: orders automation 'by noon, may be the lack of experience with MIDI and Cubase.
I have not had the opportunity to use other consoles, but through the many forums on AudioFanzine I got an ide of what I wanted or not. I give aujoud'hui courtesy to the many members of this community for whom these lines will provide more to make a choice. the result of my work with this machine and
coutable my site http://www.resonancemusette.fr in the 'video' and 'Discography'
report quality price OK
Yes I would do the same choice.
