It even changes the key

Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
I love being able to record a lead in a song and then slow it down to figure it out. The loop is excellent. I can play a part of a song over and over in order to get it down. The greatest feature is the ability to change the KEY of a song. If the original song is in C and you want to play it in A than you can just record the song and then when playing it back change the key and play along with it. It makes learning the leads a snap. I love this thing. Greatest toy I've had in a long time.

This recorder is very easy to use. I did have to take a little time and review the manual and I still don't know all the features. I'm up and running with it and will learn all the other features as I go.

Not bad. I haven't connnected it to my computer yet. You really have to adjust the recording level when recording....just reveiw the manual
Reliability

I've had it for about 3 months and so far it has held up. No problems at all. I do need to get a little case for it. Also, it EATS UP BATTERIES. GET THE ADAPTOR. I'm having to go back and do that now.

It's been reliable thus far, and I expect it to be a workhorse, just like past Tascam products.
Features

The limiter feature is nice in a loud environment. You can dial it back to get a surprisingly clear recording in a loud club or practice space. The shuttle feature works well, and the ability to record in both WAV and MP3 is awesome.

I can split a 2 hour recording into as many clips as I want, as long as its a a wav recording file. I only use wav since it's the best quality. I can then work more details once copied to my laptop.

I havent tried it with a full band yet. That will be the real test. But I can imagine that irt will be a matter of finding the right settings and positioning of this device, and maybe even use of an esternal mic. We'll see how the drums sound, that will be the challenge.
