Hello... after my frustrations with getting Cakewalk to work I'm jumped into intro home recording with the BR-8. Thanks to those who helped me make a decision.

I'm a guitar player and here's my setup;

I plan on using my DR-5 for basic drum patterns but eventually I will investigate using software like ACID or Fruity Loops to possibly enhance my drum programming capabilities.

I have several guitars and a couple of preamps/effects units including Digitech Legend, Korg AX100G, Alesis Quadraverb, BBE sonic maximizer, and a Mesa Studio Preamp. I also have an external mixer (haven't figured out how I'm going to use this but probably for mic attachment, and possibly for routing outputs of DR-5 to inputs of BR-8 while synced)

I have a Pentium II 450Mhz 10G and a CD burner. My computer is loaded with Cakewalk (sigh) and Cakewalk Pyro which I plan to use to dump the BR-8, create .wav files and then create mp3's.

.....so, I think I'm ready to go. If anybody is interested in conversing on the finer points of the BR-8 I'd be interested in any tips, short cuts, how you use it, kinks you've worked out, any advice or comments would be appreciated....

thanks,
Rudd

....let's see, I think I'll try a pic and see if it's working...

late,

welcome

Hey Rudd - welcome to BR8 ownership. We exchanged emails on this, right? Anyway-- I believe that I told you this via email, but you should also check out the BR8 forum on Yahoo groups:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BR-8


For some reason, the forum has been down the last couple hours... but check it out later. Also, I mentioned in an email to you that I was about to post a new BR8 song up on mp3.com. Well, it's there-- check it out, it's called "Good Luck John"... http://www.mp3.com/PeteAnon

Thanks, Pete.

your new tune sounds good. Thanks for the tip on yahoo. I registered there so you should see me there on occasion! I'm busy crankin' away on my first tunes. When I get something halfway decent I'll put it up..
