Hi Dave et al,

The reasoning behind looking for a hard disk recorder is to enable me to make snap recordings. I know it requires little effort to boot up the pc and launch sonar and ct but in the middle of a practice session, or even a noodling session, I want to be able to reach out, press a button and I'm recording that never-to-be-repeated moment which I'm going to instantly forget, and would have turned out to be a world-wide millions seller, smile. Yes, I think at this point, a hd multi-tracker would be an over endulgence, I'll just have to dig out my old Tascam 4-track cassette machine.

Thanks for the responses.

Jim,

From my experience in searching for an accessible 4-track
recorder, I finally bit the bullet and settled for a
cassette instead. The Tascam 414 does not depend on any
menus and memorizing the switches is relatively easy. Also,
they can still be purchased new.

I know this is not what you are wanting, and it was not what
I was wanting, either. But for what I'm doing I'm not
worried about the usual problems associated with a tape
machine.

I was not able to find any machine either through this list
nor by talking to several dealers, that I could feel that I
could use the menu without a high risk of wiping out a lot
of work.

My 2 cents.

Dave

Hello List,

I want to get a hard-disk multi-track recorder and I think I
would like to go for the Foztex mr-8 hd.  Its an entry level
machine and from what I can gather from various web sites,
is low on menus and high on proper pots  and faders etc.
Does any one on this list have experiences re hd recorders
to share?
Would appreciate some feedback.
Best wishes.
