    Cleaning Faders

    Wow. first post in a long time. The visible 'gunk' in the faders of my mr8 is not affecting the machine at all. But I'm afraid it will in time. Can anyone recommend a safe cleaning regimen to clean the faders?! I've thought about that canned air spray stuff, but I am afraid of blowing the...

    MR-8: Gains set so high!?

    Don't blame the mics. I have tried rather expensive mics and this same thing happens with me. I suggest you buy what is called a mic preamp.

    I Went to a Battle of the Bands...

    I went to a battle of the bands here in CA on Saturday and the first prize winner won an Fostex MR-8. Which I found funny because that band is the only other persons I know (not including you guys) who own one.

    Fostex MR-8 USB port

    I am assuming they didn't offer such feature because they wanted to keep the price for the end-user somewhere near $300.00.

    MR8 and n-track

    I write web apps with PHP. and php is really good at string crunching. I used to write VB back in the VB4 days as well. The only deal is is that I don't know anything about how mr8 uses ADLs. there are like 3 timecodes per entry? which one is where the entry starts?

    MR8 and n-track

    The only thing that would make ntrack better is if it could open adl files and place all the wavs on the timeline in their correct positions. If you record two tracks both beginning at absolute zero on your mr8 and then throw the wavs on your computer and add them each to a respective track in...

    Mac-MR8

    sorry! but each song on the mr8 can only be 60 minutes long. regardless of how much recording time you have left. i had to find out the hard way too! and I think it's stupid! a Fostex rep said they had no plans on eliminating this 'feature'. check out the thread on this forum labeled "60 minute...

    Alright take bdbdbuck's last post and where ever he said 'file', read it 'folder'.

    SimpleTech 1GB CF?

    It's not on the newest list of confirmed media. But they also said that any PQI cards wouldn't function correctly and mine has worked fine for months now. What's Costco's return policy. If you can return it for a cash refund, then i say just get it and give it a shot. If it doesn't work, take it...

    Finally bought the MR-8...now a question or two

    I am not in front of my machine right now but I believe it's Menu->Track->Move Track. Check out page 65 of your manual for moving track data.
