I'd also like to know as well. I went back to earlier archive posts and it seemed to get high marks for what it is designed for- easy to operate, 8 track digital(only 2 simul.) with built in effects. Main complaint was limited space on 100 mb zip disc. I'm narrowing my choice(don't have anything yet + zero recording experince) to the BR-8, Korg D-8 or Yamaha MD-8. Would love more feedback on any or all of these units. Thanks! Tony
