Hi Raul, thanks for your inquiry. Before I answer your question, let me state a few points worth mentioning: One feature I forgot mentioning is the varispeed function (like on analogue tape machines). And the user interface, as I mentioned, is really nice due to its lighted pushbuttons - you see at a glance where you're at and what the thing does. Can also be nicely synced to computers and other multitracks (as master or as slave). Another thing (legal stuff): this is a sale from a private person. I do hereby exclude any kind of warranty (especially the EU warranty for used goods). The thing has always worked great for what I used it for, but apart from a quick functional test right now, I cannot guarantee "officially" for it. Now on to the price: I'd say the region of going ebay rates, i.e. for a top condition version with 40GB HD roughly €180 (up for negotiations). If you by chance also need a second one or need a Bass POD, I'm sure we can work something out that makes both of us happy. I'll send you some pictures should you need them this evening.

I'm a computer idiot :-) Raul. 2008/1/18, Raul Bonell <raul.bonell@gmail.com >:Ooops... maybe late but.. How much are you asking for it? Cheers,- Raul. 2008/1/16, Rainer Thelonius Balthasar Straschill <rs@moinlabs.de >:Hi everyone, just clearing out my equipment collection, and here's what I found: A Fostex VR880 8-track harddisc recorder. Important features: * 2, 4, or 8 track recording modes with a total of 24 virtual tracks * recording format: 44.1kHz/16 bit - "CD quality" * optical ADAT or S/PDIF in/out * MIDI IN/OUT allows for MIDI Clock Sync, MIDI Time Code (MTC) and MIDI Machine Control (MMC) * internal IDE harddisk, external (25-pin Sub-D) SCSI2 connector for data storage * passive cooling * SPS (inside), works with 110 and 230 V, 50/60Hz * connector for punch in/out footswitch * wordlock connector (BNC) * comes with 40GB Hitachi/IBM harddisk (tested with disks of 120GB size according to fostex forum) * big LC backlit display This is a perfect companion for mobile or non-computer based studio recording jobs. Together with an ADAT I/O (like a Fostex VC-8, the excellent Behringer ADA8000 or for those more high-end oriented folks, a Presonus Digimax or even RME Octamic D), you get a stand-alone multitrack recording solution, which is also perfectly quiet (passive cooling) - great for those classical performance recordings or acoustic ensembles. While being part of Fostex' more "advanced consumer" oriented V product line, it has all the features of the big D series devices, including MMC, extensive editing functions and an excellent user interface. Another big plus is the great stability of these devices - unlike a computer, they will always work and never lock up, glitch or whatever, so also make a good backup solution for a computer-based recording setup. Comes with 40GB Hitachi/IBM harddisk drive and original set of documentation, but without original packing. This thing is already several years old, but, as they say, still looks like new. I actually got two of them and will sell either one or both of them. Please write to me offlist for offers or to ask for pictures or more info!
