I was trying to decide between the Yamaha and Fostex when I came across this thread...great stuff.
Ok, way back in this thread someone mentioned that the Yamaha recorded in 4 stereo pairs, while the Fostex uses mono tracks. Can someone explain what this means and how it's a liability? I basically just need to record 8 track simultaneously, and be able to mess around with those 8 individual tracks.
Someone also said the drives on the Fostex are more easily swappable. How does the Yamaha compare?
thx
