"THE BEST PORTABLE MULTI FUNCTION DIGITAL RECORDER ON THE MARKET PLUS YOU CAN,NOW LISTEN TO WHAT I AM SAYING HERE,PLUS YOU CAN PL"

Quality:
I HAVE EXPERIENCED NO MALFUNTIONS WITH THE UNIT.

Value:
IT IS NOT PRO-TOOLS,BUT A LOT CHEAPER AND IT WORKS.

Desirability:
IT LOOKS HI-TECH.

Sound:
THIS UNIT WORKS GOOD ,BUT YOU WILL NEED A LENGTHLY LEARNING PERIOD WHICH WILL REQUIRE A LOT OF PATIENCE.SINGLE TRACKS WORK BEST FOR MIXING,UNLESS YOU RUN THE GUITAR PART THRU MASTERING EFFECT BEFORE YOU INPUT THEM AS A STERO TRACK,IT DOES HAVE LIMITATIONS,BUT IT DOES A WONDERFULL JOB FOR SUCH A SMALL UNIT.I HAVE REPLACED MY COMPUTER WITH THIS UNIT,AND NEVER LOOKED BACK.THE REVERB IS PRETTY FFECTIVE AS LONG AS YOU DON'T OVER DO IT.IT'S KINDA A ONE STOP SHOP.I PLAY THRU IT LIVE AND MAKES YOUR GUITAR SOUND LIKE IT HAS MORE RESOLUTION AND DEPTH.YOU MIGHT HAVE TO RE-EDIT THE PATCHES LIKE ENGINEER WORK,BUT THEY WILL BE MORE EFFECTIVE.THIS THING HAS SO MUCH MORE GAIN AND STRUCTURE IT IS UNBELIEVABLE.I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH POWER THIS THING HAS.

Support:
NEVER HAD TO CALL.

Overall:
IT BEATS EVERYTHING I HAVE USED ,EXCEPT MY OLD BR-532.

"THE DEATH OF HOLLYWOODS MONOPLOY AND DISCRIMINATION TOWARDS INDIE MUSICIANS!"

Quality:
IT WORKS EVERYTIME I TURN IT ON.JUST LIKE CLOCKWORK.THE NEXT STEP WOULD BE TO CLEAN UP MY PREVIOUS MUSIC.THE MUSIC YOU CREATE ON THE MICRO IS RADIO READY FOR THE MOST PART!

Value:
AFTER NOW THAT I KNOW HOW GOOD THIS MICRO IS,I THINK IT WAS WORTH THE COST!

Desirability:
I HAVE USED A LOT OF DIFFERNT WAYS OF RECORDING MUSIC ,INCLUDING MY COMPUTER AND THE MICRO IS EASIER TO USE ,BUT WHEN I WAS LEARNING IT WAS NOT EASY,BUT THE RESULTS SPEAK FOR ITSELF.EVERY SONG MIX MAY NOT COME SOUNDING GOOD ,BUT I DON'T WORK AS HARD AS I DID BEFORE TRYING TO MASTER OUT THE SOUND TO SOUND RIGHT THRU THE BIG STEREO SPEAKERS.OR THRU THE PORTABLE CASSETTE PLAYER WITH HEADPHONES ON.

Sound:
ACTUALLY THAT I HAVE HAD A LOT OF TIME AND BUILDING UP OF PATIENCE WITH THIS PUSH BUTTONS THING.IT DOES SOUND REALLY GOOD,BUT MY HARD DRIVE HAS MORE CLARITY,BUT NOT VERY MUSICAL SOUNDING UNLIKE THE GOOD SOUNDING MICRO BR,BUT IHAVE NO EFFECTS SUITE WITH MY COMPUTER,SO THE MICRO IS THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN FOR ME RIGHT NOW.THE PREAMPS AND MASTERING EFFECTS ARE NO GOOD.BIG LET DOWN!YOU HAVE TO USE A EXTRNAL MODELING AMP TO RECORD INTO IT.I SHOVE MY DIGITECH RP50 INTO A MINI-MARSHALL AMP AND ROUTE THE HEADPHONE OUTPUT TO THE GUITAR INPUT ON MICRO BR AND BYPASS THE PREAMPS BY PUSHING THE OFF BUTTON.IT SOUNDS MORE ANALOG SOUNDING,BIGGER AND BOLDER. NORMAL SOUNDING.DRUMS ARE HARD TO PROGRAM IN ,BUT THEY DO WORK AND THEY SOUND LIKE A REAL DRUMMER,COMPARED TO MY LAST SETUP,PLUS YOU DON'T REALLY HAVE TO DO ANYMORE MASTERING,SO I QUESS YOU DON'T NEED MASTERING EFFECTS AFTER ALL.AS A RECORDER,ITS GENIUS IDEA! THE REVERB IS REALLY GOOD! THE OUTSIDE MIC ,I HAVE BUILT SONG MIXES THIS WAY.I AM CONSIDERING BUYING A BR-600 ... I NEED SOME MORE SECRET WEAPONS.I HAVE PLAYED LIVE IN FRONT OF PEOPLE WITH THIS MICRO BR AND THEY SAID IT SOUNDED GOOD,BUT I USUALLY VIDEO RECORD AND ANALYZE IT AFTERWARDS AND THE PEOPLE WERE RIGHT,THE MICRO SOUNDED GOOD WITH THE DRUMS BANGING AWAY.I CAN ALSO RUN THE MP3'S AND PLAY ALONG LIVE WITH MY GUITAR.BE SURE MOST EVERYTHING CREATED IN THE MICRO IF DONE RIGHT WILL SOUND BETTER THAN MUSIC CREATED OUTSIDE AND INPUTED IN EXCEPT FOR V-AMP-2 STUFF WHICH THE MICRO SEEMS TO LOVE.I HAVE HAD SEVERAL RECORDERS BEFORE AND THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BEST SOUNDIND ONE I HAVE USED,BUT THEIR IS A STEEP LEARNING CURVE AND PATIENCE THIS MICRO WILL BUILD UP IF YOU DON'T BREAK IT FIRST,BUT IF YOU STICK WITH IT ,IT WILL REWARD YOU.THIS THING APPROACHES HOLLYWOOD SOUNDING MUSIC STUFF FOR $230.00 DOLLARS AND I THOUGHT IT WAS OVERPRICED IN THE BEGINNING.I HAVE RCORDED SOME OUTSTANDING SOUNDING SONGS WITH THIS THING.IT BEATS MY OLD WAY OF DOING THINGS AND A LOT SIMPLER BUT I HAD TO HAVE PATIENCE.

Ease of Use:
NOT THE EASIEST THING TO LEARN,BUT THE RESULTS ARE OUTSTANDING!THIS THING BEATS THE HELL OUT OF ANYTHING I HAVE USED IN THE PAST.
