Looking for a Tascam DA-88 compatible machine (DA-88, 98, 78, or 38) in working condition, for a reasonable price. Send me a PM.

Oky doky. Here's where I'm at and what I want to do. Wanting to record my band for some decent sounding demos to shop around for gigs. We're kind of Radioheadish mixed in with a little folk, classic rock, and everything else. So distorted guitars (tube distortion not digital), acoustic...

Alright, brand spanking new to recording. Have no equipment (at least none that warrants the title 'equipment') I've decided that I want to take up some home recording as a hobby, maybe develop it into something later. The only thing I've noticed is that my computer has next to no RAM (189...
