Fostex X-28h Any Good

[jamezy]

It's a 4 track to tape and i can get it very cheap, wondering if it's any good, will be using it for guitar, keyboard and vocals.

ANy other options i can take for recording, mainly guitars

Thanks

sure . why not ?
if you can get a second one cheap for 60 bucks then you can bounce between them. and get lots of tracks.
but maybe for the future you might consider a pc. i can do easy 48 tracks on my pc or more.
peace.

Is 60 bucks cheap for one, i can get one for $40nz which is 20 american(about)

Or move to the Fostex mp01 for about $99.00 US and get 4 tracks?

Sorry, I wasn't too clear with that post. Not enough sleep and too much of something else! I've had both machines, and I still have the mp01. I like the sound of the mp01 more because it's warmer. They will both give you what you want, but I think the mp01 is also a little easier to use.

AS a tool to get down song ideas and throw some rough demos together, sure it's good... just don't expect to produce anything that sounds like a Daniel Lanois production!
