Tascam DR1 recorder?

[CrashBang]

Am buying a Tascam DR1 to replace my creative jukebox 3 for live recordings. Anyone use one?

Any tips?

It's so new, you are probably one of the first. Please do report back on how you like it. How does it handle loud sources? I have a Zoom H2. It's good but could have been better, clips occasionally with loud sources. No solution except to run thru external gear. I'm considering a DR1 if it can do better.

I'm interested as well. I have a Boss Micro Br. The Tascam looks appealing....

It shipped today. As soon as I run it through it's paces I will update.

Recieved my new DR1 the other day and I am very happy. The interface with my computer is smooth, it records in 44 and 48 wav files as well as mp3. It can overdub and has a 1/4 in. jack. Built in mics seem o.k. but use sound professional external for recording live music. Records right onto sd cards, which are way cheap now adays.

Don't have a show to record until April but will post some wav files if there is any interest.

I'd love to hear some soundclips...Personally, I'm in the market for a multi-track, and I'm really not happy with the Line 5 toneport (actually, I'm not happy with ableton - but I've decided to go with a multi anyways, so...).
