I am interested in getting a Boss BR8. One question I have is: Is there a recording mode for uncompressed recording? Plus, does it really make a difference, compressed vs. uncompressed, and are the zip disks a large drawback? To anyone who owns it, overall, how do you like it? How are the effects and amp modeling, and is the sound quality of rec'ding up to par? Also, does anyone know a resource for this unit on the web (I can not find anything substancial)?

Thanks to anyone who can at least help me w/ any of the above questions.

Don't have a BR-8(I've got a VS-880EX),but I know that all recording modes on it use lossy data compression.
 
I own the BR8 and I love it...find it hard to believe that you can beat it for the price. Zip Disks are a drawback if your songs tend to run more than 4 and a half or five minutes. Built in effects are great...guitar tuner is incredibly handy.

Can't answer your questions about compression, etc. Don't know much about all of that stuff!

Good luck...
