The problem is hiss, a gentle ocean of it which is particularly noticable on vocal tracks. I'm no audiophile, but the sound is unacceptable. If I can't stand it, I shouldn't push the generosity of anyone generous enough to give my stuff a listen (or to give my ass a sniff).
Well, last night I got to toy around with a ZOOM H1. The playback sounded great to my ears, so I returned the mic I just bought and put in an order for the ZOOM. I have such fond memories of using the TASCAM 424 cassette four-track, but I decided to forgo brand loyalty in getting a tascam digital recorder and instead get something I had just witnessed working fine.
I guess I'll record track by track, dumping and synching the results. ? Pain in the ass, but as convinient as I'll get for the results I want.
This thread has ended up containing some good info, though, and should come in handy for when I have more $$.
