A long time.If this product ever broke,and if it cost about as much to fix it, as to buy another,i would definitely buy another one, or an upgrade model?
Sound
I've owned this recorder since it first came out? It has since dropped in price a couple of hundred dollars,but even with that said,I have got my monies worth!I've recorded four hundred and sixty five songs to date! Drums,two guitars,bass,piano,strings,one lead vocal track and two tracks for harmony.Its not million dollar studio quality,but its fantastic!Unbeatable!!!
Features
ease of operation and sound quality(effects and vocals)are its high points. low points: drums are not programable,no rolls are lead ins at break points? and the bass effects could be more,effects 49 on the bass is about the only one i can use?
Quality
It seems very well made,no problems in the two and a half years i've had it? But you must understand,its not a toy,its a quality recording piece of a equipment and must be treated as such?
Value
Absolutely,every penny!
Manufacturer Support
I have a matter of fact? I lost or misplaced my manual,and their impossible to reach? I still don't have a manual? Good thing i learned most of the operational information,before hand!
The Wow Factor
this question is above my understanding?I own guitars,bass's,pianos,mikes,P.A.systems, etc.and not once in my thirty years of playing, have i ever bought musical equipment with a thought of how sexy it was? (Quality-value)The most important factors i look for?
