MR-8
8-Track Digital Multitracker
The Fostex MR-8 is the first solid-state memory recorder in the industry that offers 8-
tracks of recording on the very popular CompactFlash card media. The MR-8 comes
with a very competitive price point, especially compared to the current digital 4-track
memory recorders already on the market.
Fostex's design goal for the MR-8 was to create a digital multitrack recorder with
unprecedented ease of operation for musicians who want digital recording and superb
sound quality, but also offers the simplicity of their favorite old analog machine. Nearly
all the functions of the MR-8 are on the physical knobs and buttons of the top panel.
User frustration caused by having to flip through pages and pages of LCD menus, is
not an issue with the MR-8.
