Hi, I had a Yamaha MT44D ( the black fronted updated version of the MT44) back in 1985. It was my first multitrack and was a great way of getting into multitracking. I've still got recordings - mainly acoustic folkie stuff and I got good results for these early ventures. It only ran at 1:7/8ips (rather than the double speed of Tascams and I think Fostex units). It was fine but, unless its incredibly cheap, you'd have far more sound quality and facilities from a secondhand minidisc 4track or even the AKAI DR4vr and DR8 go very cheap secondhand now, as does the EMU Darwin etc. I think that even one of the Tascam more recent Porta studios would give you better results than the MT44. Oh, and I used mine with an MTR 6/4/2 mixer. Hope this helps.
