I've used those Zoom multi-tracks! They're VERY nice and I really like the layout on them.
I'm going to sell my Fostex MR8 and pick up one of these Zoom's. My Fostex has had very little use too. Hopefully I can get a decent amount of $ for it. My Fostex doesn't even compare to Zooms 8 trk model. Did you see the 16 trk model just had a $100 price drop? It's now selling for $599!!!!!
