Hiperi0n Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Hello guys , i just got a boss micro br 4 track studio...i can say i'm amazed of this little things... it has 4 tracks (32virtual) it has a multi effects (mostly for guitar.. ) and a lot of drums patterns (too bad the most are in 4/4) The other cool things is that it has the possibility to download inside mp3s and to slow them without changing the pitch a great tools for studying songs or excercise.... i found it used and i'm really happy with it!! i bought a 2 gigabyte card..but seems it recognize only one giga that's bad Anyway a great little piece equipment for study or recording ideas or riffs....great things...if you are in the market for something like that..go for it.... it has also a good internal mix..for acustic stuff or to record live without an input....

Paul Cooke Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 get thyself down to Staples... 512 meg SD cards are a fiver... 1 Gig for a tenner far cheaper than the ones in Tesco's, Asda etc. they're trying to gouge you for £18 for a 1 Gig one... and to think, three years ago, I paid £90 for a 128 meg one for my Palm PDA...

kevcooke Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) Think that's bad? 4 years ago (I think it was) I paid £220 for a 256mb MP3 player... Edited July 10, 2007 by kevcooke Quote
Hiperi0n Posted July 10, 2007 Author Posted July 10, 2007 i paid 15 euros for 2 gigabyte sandisk cart was a good price that why i risked to get it ...i've read on some forums that the micro br with bigger sd cards will work always at 1 giga....but i tried Quote

The Burpster Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 I have a BR and use it loads..... I did read on the Boss website somewhere in the specs (I think) that it can only manage 1gig of memory as it cannot process any more space..... It does benefit from a quick 1Gig card tho' And to be honest you can get a lot of stuff on 1 gig if you try. Quote

RichardH Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 What's it like for just plain recording (say) a band practice/jam session? IIRC it has an internal mike as well as a mike input. Quote
Muppet Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Can you connect it to itunes or other music libraries on your PC to update it with music, and can you drop the bass sounds out (like the Tascam) to play over the top of existing tracks? Quote
The Burpster Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Not tried using the open mic (yet) so cant comment...... Muppet...... It has a mid section cut, ( I guess aimed mostly at ***itarists, but its pretty horrid.....). You can adapt the mix by boosting the line input so your bass is lots loader than the orginal track (which is what I do for practice) especially if you have an active out put... And yes you can import anyting in MP3 format ---- Wont handle MP4 or AIFF tho' B Quote
