Do those two recorders have the same drive?!
I mean, the MD4 basically is the same just as the MD8, but with less mixer channels.
I would think that the thing that defines it as a 4 track is not the drive but rather the controller, ROM parts, etc.
I`m asking because I need a replacement drive for my MD8, and since MD4s go much cheaper than MD8s, I would then consider buying an MD4 to get it.
(following the idea that a new replacement drive from the company would cost more than a used MD8 on ebay.)
What do you think?
