I just saw an ad for the Tascam 788, an 8 track hard disc recorder. Anyone want to throw their 2 cents in?

BOSS has one that uses ZIP discs, but I havn't seen much about it. I'd like to see a comparison.

It's brand new, but it's also been highly anticipated. It just takes one word to describe it: TASCAM. It's gotta be good!

I actually held one in my hans on Sat. although I didn't hear it.It's kinda strange/cheesy looking,but if it does what it says at that price,who cares?

yeah ray..i saw it too...it BETTER sound good...cause it looks cheap and shitty....i cant believe that...and for the $800 or $900 that they want for it...no way....a couple hundred bucks more and ya get the fostex vf-16...twice the tracks...and built TEN times better....pretty disapointing...but i guess tascams priorities are in thier higher end stuff...who knows...but like i said..i havent heard it..and thats what counts when it comes down to it

Yeah,the Fostex is in a metal casing,BUT records at 16 bit res. and only 8 virtual tracks vs.24 bit res. and 250 virtual tracks on the 788 so pick yer poison...

the vf-16 has automated mixing that is possible without losing significant amounts of hair...on the roland products its almost more trouble than its worth...besides id take 16 track/16 bit over less tracks/more bits anyday...i want my stuff to sound great but i AM only recording at home..as far as virtual tracks...ive never even used one
