I purchased an MR-8 cupl yrs ago but have just turned back to experiement with it after doing my limited recording (guitar/vocals) with Cakewalk. After doing only a few recordings with the MR-8 & getting excited about its possibilities, all off a sudden, I am getting static in the recordings...

For some reason, I am unable to post my message -- Keep getting "This is duplicate of message posted in last 5 minutes" Can't seem to find the problem. Not sure whether this will get thru either.

I do digital recording in 2 ways - 1) directly (audio only acoustic guitar and vocal) into Home Studio software on computer, and 2) on Fostex MR-8 which I then transfer as stereo wav file by USB cable into my computer. The Home Studio software allows me to adjust volume on tracks and, of...

From postings and tutorial here, I understand that I should be plugging my mic into the Line In on computer rather than the simple Mic input intended for computer mics. I am having problem identifying where that Line In is on my computer. My sound card is Sound Blaster Audigy 4. I think I...

I am a newbie working with a Fostex MR-8 having only the original chip capacity which I thot was about 25 min - maybe that is not right. I recorded a 4-track song (keyboard, guitar, vocals) and bounced it to 7-8 and then tried to convert it to WAV Stereo. At that point, the display indicated...

I know the subject is confusing but this question is hard to define. Here's the deal. I bought a Fostex X-12 4-track recorder and found to my surprise that it is very small and only weighs a couple pounds. Then, I bought a Sony dual-cassette deck for mixing and, again to my surprise, it is...

How can it be that I have recorded with cassette tapes for years and only now I have found out that there are different Types of tapes -- I, II,and IV? Anyway, when I looked over my new Sony deck, bought for mixing from my 4-track and received yesterday, I saw it had settings for I, II and IV...
