Feature:
it has everything i needed to make my demo and record ideas.
Quality:
i bring it everywhere and have had no bad experiences, i only worry that it will be stolen. that is why i bought the optional lock, so i can secure it like a laptop.
Value:
for the price, who are you to resist? no other recorder is as friendly to guitarists/bassists/singer/songwriters and offers as many options. If it was stolen i would get another one.
Desirability:
the ease of the usb port makes this product extremely useful. i bought 512mb CompactFlash card online for $40 so now i have 4 hours more of recording time before i load my tracks onto my pc.
Sound:
it has a 3 to 1 compression rate so it isn't the best sounding, but it is the best sounding below $1000. The bouncing and mastering toolkit make the tracks sound respectable and the usb make it easy to transfer back up tracks and finnished songs as wav. or asf. files. The effects are very useable and the drum machine gives you a few options.
Support:
i've never contacted boss/roland but there website is great. you can get all the info including manuals and other support.
Overall:
as long as computers have usb ports i will cherish my br-864.

Feature:
It has all the features you would like. It records in 8 tracks, bounce them and has a mastering toolkit. You can convert those tracks to wav format and export them to your PC. Do you want more? It can read midi files to use them as drum patterns and can import wav files to one of the 64 virtual tkacks avalaible. You can also use wav sounds as drum sounds.
Quality:
Very good Quality
Sound:
I'm a hobbist musician and this thing is well built and has a very good quality. It's very clean.
Support:
I haven't needed support yet. The only thing I must say is that it works with Windows 98. Using a generic driver it can recognize the Boss BR-864 as a card reader.
