Squee Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Hey, I was looking at the Edirol R-1 harddisk recorder that someone recommended in another thread, but I just found a Zoom Ps 04 for about $100 Does anyone know anything about this little fella? Is it good? Blablabla? Hullamabulla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foresense Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 looks cool! zoom makes a lot of cheap hardware. dunno if they're any good, but I remember reading some good reviews about an effect pedal. man for 150$ you can't go far wrong.

Squee Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 I've found it at my local music store and it costs about $450 so this is quite a bargain - if it's worth it of course. I'm not all that good at reading all the technical details on music equipment but I can tell if I like what I hear.

Squee Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 Seems like a waste of money to me. Someone sell me the idea. I wanna make my own recordings. I want my very own stash of samples. I want my very own ambient tracks so no one can identify the synths I've been using. I want I want I want I want... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I really have to buy the damn expensive one from Edirol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I really have to buy the damn expensive one from Edirol? if it's field recordings you want to make - all you need is a MD player (or a flash mp3 player/encoder to avoid mechanical noise) and small mic like a c1000s. but the ps04 will do that as well certainly, don't get me wrong.
