Thanks, for the Post guinsu The X-26 is an older machine they don't have it on the Fostex website because it came out in 1988, it was a middle of the road model so I figured the sound quality should be better. I am also compaing it to lesser machines, I have used a Porta 3 with much better...

This is posted in the Analog Forum also but I thought it might get more response here. I have an old Fostex X- 26 4 track, its in good shape, I use good tapes and clean it often and have a Shure SM-57. But I find the sound quality is just not that good. I am thinking about trading it on a...

I haven't been spoiled by Digital. I have been trying to compare apples to apples, I have used a Tascam porta 3 a few years ago, some guys I have jammed with have a 414 and my guitar teach has an old porta 5. All of which sound better than the Fostex. I have no tape flutter or anything like...

I have an old Fostex X- 26 4 track, its in good shape, I use good tapes and clean it often and have a Shure SM-57. But I find the sound quality is just not that good. I am thinking about trading it on a Tascam a 414 if I can. I don't have much money so I am hoping a trade and a little cash...

Record the drums and guitar or bass at the same time. The 414 will record 4 tracks at once. A seperate track for each you can bounce down to one later then add the rest. If you record guitar then drums your playing will be off no matter how good you are. E

Yea, I'm not to impressed with the X-26 it sounds shitty, I could always dump it for a Pre-amp.

I have heard a few problems with the core 2 so I may go SB route or Turtle Beach. I don't know any others That will be around $100-$200. As for the computer Cakewalk runs fine on the 133, but I only do 30 second loops and to jam with. I really don't think I can do much direct recording with it...

I have $600, I have a good Mic SM57 and a few others and A Fostex X-26 that can pass as a mixer. For now it will be just me recording guitar, bass and drum loops but I would like the system to be able to record demo's for a band. Oh yea I also have Cakewalk Pro 9.0. I have been thinking about...
