Boss BR-1200CD Digitial Studio

[DRMusic]

I'm thinking of getting a Boss BR-1200CD Digitial Studio to record my band's stuff. It's got mastering capabilities on its own. I feel like it would pay for itself when compared to studio and mastering fees with an outside company.

Does anyone have any experience with the 900, 1200, or 1600?

I had a BR532... I would say it's quite limited to what you can do with it. I think you'd be better off recording it to a laptop and then mastering it.

computer for final mix, all the way. get a good firewire box.

For the price you would pay for the boss product, you could buy yourself a Digidesign Protools Box ($449). It works wonders...Personally I work with an 002 rack which is more high end than an Mbox. im only 17 and i have been using Digidesign for a year and wouldnt change it for anything. You would have better flexibility and options if you recorded straight into a computer. Mbox's are available all over the place and come with the Pro Tools software and certain effects plugins. Happy Recording!
