Equipment for multi-track recording

[sonofspy]

A good friend of mine wants to buy a standalone
multi-track recording unit for his home studio...

Hardware solutions only no software based please...
He has $1000-1500 to spend for the unit...
(already has mics effects etc.)

What do you/others use/recommend?

Cheers!

I been looking into the Boss BR1600CD for some time now. I have no experience when it but have heard only good things about it.

Check the classifieds.

Yeah ... I saw the BR1600CD there ... just have not convinced myself I want it badly enough.

Or you go with the BOSS 9 track for only about $550.00! Being digital
thats a TON o' possibilities! 16 tracks of digital is like 30 tracks of
the old analog tape units imo

MF has a Tascam 2488 24 track stand alone recorder for $799 . I've got a CD that was produce with one of these and it sound very good .

I've been looking into this for quite some time, and the 2488 seems to be the best bang for the buck. I decided to build my own PC instead, but if I was going to go the stand alone route, the 2488 is the one I'd get.

I got the Didgi 002 rack but looked very hard at the 2488.
