Hey guys:
I've been using the Boss Br532 for some time, which records in a compressed 16/44.1 format. I've been eyeing the Mr8, as it appears to be the only budget digital recorder that doesn't compress the audio.
So what I'm wondering is: anyone here who has gone from a BR532 (or some other unit using compressed audio) to the Mr8 (or another uncompressed 16/44.1 unit) and have you really noticed a difference in your sound?
Also, any input on how the on-board guitar effects stack up against the Boss effects? I don't care so much about verb, delay, eq, compression, since I mix on the computer and add that stuff later. But the main reason I've held on to the (otherwise rather annoying) BR532 all this time is that I've managed to squeeze some pretty cool guitar sounds out of it.
thanks for any input,
Chris
