This is all the space you'd ever need. I'm pretty sure this is the right format of card.

what do you guys think i should get? i dont want to spend more than 50(with shipping and everything). What do the speeds mean? ex: Hi-Speed 40x? does that only matter with cameras?

Look in the owners' manual for the device you plan to ue it in; see if they call for a "minimum recommended speed".
If not, go for price.
I don't have the manual, and can't seem to find an online version. anyone have any experiance with this machine?

If it's this dude, your owner's manual is there on the right, in PDF format.....

Look through it, but I'd be surprised if it requires anything beyond your normal, garden variety CF card. Probably just look for the best price offered by a reputable vendor.

theres usually some good deals on ecost for CF cards...I say 1 gig...although it may be overkill, its nice to have extra space

along time ago i found a chart that showed how many minutes you would get with lets say a 1 gig card, and then it divided it itno how many tracks you were using. Anyone seem to knwo where that is?
EDIT: what do you guys think about this one?

Yep. Go up to that link I put in post #8, then click on "Specifications". It's not a chart, but the info is there, a few lines down.
The ecost.com card looks good, but do be aware that Ecost adds a "handling charge" every time I've ordered from them. So, free shipping, but ~$5 handling.... kinda defeats the purpose of free shipping....
Get a vanilla CF card. Those "high speed", "type II" , etc. cards will not work properly in the Boss recorders (they are meant for cameras). I use SanDisk, PNY and Kingston brands with my BR-864 and they all work fine.
Look for online deals or wait for a sale. Seems to me Best Buy, Office Max and Staples have sale/rebate deals almost every week on CF cards. You should be able to get 512MB for $40 and 1GB for about $80.
