BOSS continues its top-selling tradition of
portable, affordable multi-trackers with the new BR-800 — a
battery-powered studio to go. The sleek new design is made possible by
touch-sensor switches and SD-card recording media. Up to four tracks can
be recorded simultaneously with eight tracks of simultaneous playback
plus an additional stereo track dedicated to the built-in rhythm
generator. The BR-800's powerful onboard effects processor includes
GT-10/10B effects, VE-20 vocal effects and harmonies, and COSM-based
acoustic-guitar body modeling. EZ Recording feature interactively guides
through the recording process. A stereo microphone is also built into
the BR-800 for instant "Song Sketch" recording. No matter where you
roam, you'll never miss a moment of musical inspiration with the BR-800.
EZ
Recording
Whether you're creating intricate, multi-layered songs or
point-and-capture field recordings, the BR-800 makes the recording
process fast and easy. Beginners will love the new EZ Recording mode
that interactively guides you through the recording process. Other
helpful features include the convenient Retry function, which recues
automatically to fix mistakes, and Song Sketch recording for instant,
one-touch capture. There's also a built-in stereo condenser microphone
plus a DR-880-quality rhythm generator for adding drum and percussion
tracks to your songs.
Pro Effects
Enhance your recordings with the powerful BOSS effects onboard the
BR-800. Many of the effects are derived from BOSS's flagship processors,
including vocal effects from the VE-20, COSMguitar/bass amps and
effects from the GT-10 series, modeled acoustic-guitar body effects from
the AP-1 preamp, which imparts pro-quality miked-up sound and rich body
tone to line-recorded acoustic guitar. You'll be amazed at how much
processing power is built into this little recorder, and how excellent
the effects sound.
Mobility
You can power the BR-800 from the included AC adaptor, or, for ultimate
mobility, it can be powered from six AA batteries. Record anywhere!
Stereo microphones are also built into the BR-800 for instant "Song
Sketch" recordings — great for capturing song ideas (acoustic guitar and
vocals, for example) from any location.
USB Enhanced
The BR-800's USB compatibility enables a variety of functionality with
computers. Connected to a PC, the BR-800 will function as a USB audio
interface for recordings that utilize the internal effects. The BR-800
can also function as a control surface for DAW software.
