What a great gadget....I was looking for something to get song ideas down and had tried other recorders but they didn't allow for multiple layering....this baby lets you stick down drum beats, bass parts, rhythm guitars and lead work and vocals and lets you master your work so it can be downloaded and burnt to Cd. Everybody knows what it's like trying to get new songs done via practices...well this lets you get a proper working demo which is absolutely brilliant.
You can do live recording of work also with decent sound quality letting you hear how your band or yourself are playing. It's easy to use, with well laid out menus with enter and exit prompts so you don't inadvertently dump anything you wanted to keep, a multitude of boss effects and if you use a large memory card you can put whole catalogues of work through it.
It also has a great training / play along facility where you can edit out the parts you want to learn / practice and it includes software to allow detailed mastering of your work.
I would easily recommend this to any level of musician it's small, compact so easy to use and very, very impressive. Get one and enjoy making your music it's that easy.
