first time recording

[wizzzard]

Hi folks,

I planned to buy a simple hd-recorder but yesterday I got an offer to buy the Fostex VF-160 + cdwr for a real hot price (about $400), so I did. Now this machine seems pretty complicated for a total dummy like me. Anyone who can suggest any good book to start with (digital recording starting from zero).
Or good links to get started. For now I only like to record about 2 guitars en some voices (+ keyboard)

Thanx!...btw, nice site!!

You are already reading the good book....if you search these forums, you will probably find the answers to your questions...Good Luck!

Yup, it's complicated, mostly because of the amazing editing capabilities of the current crop of standalones. I feel your pain. I figured out how to use the Roland VS1824CD. I recommend humbly that you begin by reading the freaking manual. Then take more specific questions to the Fostex Forum. If you don't have a manual, get one. You will not figure it out without one.-Richie
