Boss BR-80 Multitrack Digital Recorder

The latest MICRO BR is compact enough to slip into your pocket, yet packs features suitable for professional-level music production. It boasts two tracks for simultaneous WAV-format recording, along with eight tracks for playback and 64 virtual tracks for advanced editing and mixdown. Equipped with high-quality stereo condenser mics, it offers up to 500 hours of recording time (with an optional 32 GB SDHC card) to swiftly capture song ideas and rehearsals. Additionally, dedicated inputs cater to connecting a guitar, microphone, or any stereo line-level device.

Enhancing your sonic palette, the BR-80 houses a potent processor delivering exceptional effects processing without compromising sound quality. Featuring world-class COSM guitar and bass effects, as well as dedicated vocal effects inspired by the VE-20 Vocal Performer, it also includes a robust suite of mastering effects. With user-friendly controls, achieving professional-grade sounds is effortless, while detailed editing of effects parameters offers deeper customisation.

For songwriting, the BR-80 offers an array of backing rhythm tracks spanning various musical styles, each crafted with top-quality drum and percussion sounds and organised into patterns suitable for different song sections. Furthermore, it facilitates music practice and jamming with eBand mode, offering a vast library of backing tracks and rhythm patterns for playing along, along with the option to import WAV or MP3 songs. Variable speed playback, variable pitch, and A-B Repeat features enable users to learn and practice songs in different keys and tempos, while the Centre Cancel function minimises guitar solos and vocals in pre-recorded tracks.

With convenient connectivity options, the BR-80 doubles as an audio interface for computer-based recording via USB. It also allows for seamless import and export of WAV and MP3 audio tracks. Bundled with powerful software including the eBand Song List Editor and BR Wave Converter, the BR-80 ensures a streamlined and versatile music production experience.
