    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.

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

    Well no. But you can bounce to 5 and 6 without any crazy panning (center) and then "move" track 5 to track 1,2,3 or 4 and erase track 6. Does that help?

    Ok Who bought it?

    Re: Re: it was me The number 1 was used to number the point as he did with 2 and 3. It should read, "1. 30 Gb hard drive" not ".30 gb hard drive".

    v1.03-v1.05?

    So in other words, nothing. Damn Fostex. WHERE'S THE VIRTUAL TRACKING?! BD, yes I did update to v1.05! nothing different.

    v1.03-v1.05?

    That would be 'DELETE UNUSED' You can find it by tapping 'Menu', then selecting 'Song' and then in there selecting 'Delete Unused'. This will delete anything that you undid or erased FOR EVER (sandlot). so beware. It really comes in handy for all the people using that 128 chip that the mr8 came...

    CF cards/exorbitant prices

    there are sizes up to 3 gigs now. but a 3 gig is about $2500.00. Later this year, there will be a 6 gig available coming out at $7500.00. it will be soooooo long before these are standard sizes though. until this much space is demanded, these prices wont drop much.
