This isn't really a fostex question, but I know a lot of people in here use behringer ub808 and 1002 mixers. Is there really a difference between the two besides 10 bucks? Which would you prefer?
 
I don't know about the difference in those two models. I bought a UB802 because of a review that I heard that said the preamps in the UB series were the best in the inexpensive class. The review was right.
 
Well, the 1002 has 4 stereo channels, and the 802 has 2, so I went ahead and ordered the 1002 since it was only 10 bucks more. I am anxiously waiting it's arrival. Since I am new at this, how much will this improve my recording experience? I normally just usually plug right into the mr8 or use a mic directly into it.

just the fact that you will now have some eq control is worth it, the preamps will really bost your input signal and give you better recordings
 
Thanks. I tend to lose interest in recording if I don't like get new equipment or something...I just get frustrated. I figured it was time to upgrade a little bit, so I also got a new mic. I've been using a cheap Audio Technica ATR30 since I've had my recorder.
 
When you start using the mixer keep the trim turned all the way down on the MR8. You will no longer need it. I remember when I first started using the mixer in conjunction with the MR8 I had to really watch the levels on the screen until I got it fine tuned.
