digital recorders[views:5213][posts:16]________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 7:12pm - Hooker ""] We want something easy to leave in our practice space that maybe has a cd burner built in. Like a digital 8 track or whatever. Suggestions? |
| ___________________________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 8:54pm - WhyamIandasshole at home ""] I found one in musicians friend for 399. No cd burner but you can hook it up to a computer. DP-01 Portastudio |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 9:18pm - the_reverend ""] it's portable and (since platform shoes came back) this will be envogue next year! [img] [img] 2 cassettes are key for copying yout demo! |
| ________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 9:20pm - Hooker ""] VF80EX /\ We need one of these. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:06pm - WhyamIandasshole at home ""] Not bad. I'd be down for that. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:27pm - litacore ""] if you're looking for a standalone unit, I recommend Tascam or Boss. Depends on how many tracks you want, and your budget. Get one with the CD burner built in, yeah. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:31pm - Hooker ""] well, i'm not really in need of tons of overdubbing. The most important thing is price obviously, then how many simultaneous tracks and the cd burner. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:37pm - litacore ""] look into Boss BR-1180CD. 10 Tracks, CD-RW drive. Thousand bucks. otherwise, go Fostex VF80EX, 8-trk., CDRW. $600. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:44pm - Aegathis ""] yikes! 1000?! That thing must really do the trick , compared to the Boss br8 that is. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:50pm - dyingmuse ""] roland v series! i have owned 3 of them, they fucking rock! i have the 18 track one now |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 10:55pm - litacore ""] hmm, if I ever go this route I'd prefer to get a new, dual processor Mac, Firewire interface, and either Logic or Digital Performer. in the meantime, I'm happy with my analog Tascam, plus I can always burn the mixdown cassette to digital AIFFs. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 27,2005 11:28pm - dyingmuse ""] burn a tape???? hmmmm, i wouldn't do that one man. unless you are just talking scratch tracks for ideas. and a computer is a great way to go, but a bit expensive and too complex for being in a jam room imho |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 28,2005 12:25am - litacore ""] not a great method, I know. But that's what I did for the mp3s on our site (maybe once you hear 'em you'd see why they sound like doo-doo, hahaha!) also, I don't have a proper pair of monitors, just my home component stereo so basically my whole recording setup is Nymphomaniac Cavegirl in Dinosaur Hell Island |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 28,2005 1:11pm - Josh_hates_you ""] how many mics/line ins do you need at once? most of those smaller all in one units only have a few XLR inputs. many of the cheapo 8 tracks have 2 xlr inputs thus limiting you to 2 mics you can still line in instruments providing you match the impedance. |
