Zoom's highly portable R16 multi-track recorder

Zoom R16

Got one drool…Picked it up at Sam Ash for $299 (I had a $100 of anything $399 or more post card they sent me) more drool….Short and simple it’s a must have! The FX routing is incredible as well as the sounds of the FXs. The fact that I can do 16 tracks of digital audio with FX without having to watch my cpu cycles is worth the $299 by its self. Get thus, you can pop in a usb flash drive and transfer the files as waves on to the drive. It gets better you can link two of these babies together for 32 tracks!! It’s light and made from plastic so take care on how you treat it(got mine on a keyboard tray under my desk).Haven’t tried it as a sound card or control surface yet and probably won’t use it as one. The reason why I got it in the first place is that I need a lot of tracks without the fuss of a computer. Got a Tascam DP-02CF but this thing is on another level. If there is one thing that you treat yourself to this year it should be this baby. It’s mobile, light, and the best bang for the buck in 20 years.
