Shana If you go to page 46 in your br-8 manual theres step by step info on bouncing tracks. page 89 also(changing the insert effect connection)this page will show you how to apply effects to dry recorded sound. By all means get an electric guitar!!!!! And by the way you can bounce tracks on...

Try this link, it a new BR-8 site, not much yet but give it some time to blossom. http://members.xoom.com/ocomain/ocomain/

Hi GT I have the br-8 I give it very high marks!!!! Easy to use, you'll be recording in a matter of hours. Great effects, insert and loop. The drums sound ok, I use the boss dr-5 for all my drum sounds.But the rhythm guide or drum machine on the br-8 is great to use when you just fill like...

Having problems posting on my end.??????? :o [This message has been edited by jimimac (edited 04-23-2000).]

Keith L I havent run out of time with the 100 meg zip disk yet.I wish it was 250 meg also but it not. I think in the future like the vs-840, there will be an upgrade for the BR-8 to 250 megs.I have used all 8 tracks and still had some time left.I dont have much use for the v-tracks,but you would...

Hey guys & gals Iam very pleased with the BR-8 its alot of machine for the money.Its so easy to use also. Well the rhythm guide isn't the greatist but its real handy when I just want to practice some scales or just jam for a while. I was experimenting with the rhythm guide the other night.I...

Shana Negotiator hit the nail right on the head answering your question. I had the same problem with BR-8,pickup to close to the zip drive. I should have read the manual a little closer it warns about that. Digital recording is all new to me. Your right about one thing ,this is a great SITE.

Hellow Vitt I have the BR-8 and I love it its so easy to use.I was concerned about the 100 meg zip but If have no trouble with it. when the roland vs 840 hit the market it also was 100 megs. then roland made upgrades possible to 250 meg zip.I belive that will be the future for the BR-8 also...

Hellow Eurythmic I recently upgraded from a tascam 424 to the boss BR-8 and I love it. I have no problems with the 100 megs.the machine is awesome. if you want somemore feedback on the BR-8 hop on over to www.vsplanet.com visit the840-ex forum. jimimac

Hellow Kingnothing These guys aint bullshiting about the dr-5 its a band in a box. its a great drum machine with some great sounding kick drums you can edit to your taste. the other instruments sound fantastic also. unlike the dr-770 the dr-5 dosent have individual out puts, only L-R out and...

DLewis Iam not sure about what your saying but i'll take a stab at it.What you wanted was vocals on one track and guitar on another track. If thats the case, you would need to have the mixer channels panned hard left or right on the powered mixer.

Mattc The br-8 has 35 vocal presets and 15 vocal transformers a total of 50 patches. You can edit all 50 of them to suit your needs. Any inline processor can be connected to the br-8 as far as I know. Ive recorded some vocals and they sound great. you should have no problem recording a great...

How can I trigger my dr-5 drum machine with my digital 8 track? I know how to trigger it using my key board midi out to midi in. Can the recorded tracks on the 8 track trigger the dr-5??? 8 track has midi out only. jimimac

Hellow People! I got some dumb midi questions to ask. I dont know to much about midi or digital recording. I got the new boss Br-8 a few weeks ago it has midi out only,I guess that would make it the master connected to my dr-5 drum machine?I understand how to connect and synchronize the...

Hi! teach i never seen the tascam videos but i bought a tutorial video for my boss DR-5 drum machine and I thought it was a real rip off.I learned more on my own reading the manual than watching that stupid tape. Dont be afraid to post your topic elseware on this site,im sure someone has bought...
