Zoom MRS-8 survival guideThis is a featured page


Home recording can be one of the most satisfying elements of music making. It can also be one of the most confusing. This wiki is for users of the Zoom MRS-8 Multi-track Recording Studio, but all Home recordists are welcome as many subjects are universal.
This Wiki is a sister site to the Zoommrs8+ forum that can be found here. Please only use the forum facility of this survival guide for questions about the Wiki, not home recording.


New to home recording? Try "Guide to Multitracking"

New to the MRS8? Try the "straight out of the box" guide

Check out useful tips in the "Quick Tips" Section. - Don't forget to add a favourite tip if you have one!

Common complaints and solutions can be found in the "FAQ"

There are also a number of "MRS-8 Guides" that everyone will find useful

And once you have been around for a bit, please start adding. This is a Wiki after all! Just please make sure the content is relevant to the subject.

enjoy,

vinnieb Can I connect an analog 4 track recorder to the MRS-8? 1 Aug 23 2011, 8:45 AM EDT by legbiter

Hi,
I have several old 4 track cassettes from many years ago, and would quite like to be able to remix them digitally. Apart from sending them away for processing (at considerable expense I assume), I was wondering whether I could connect an old 4 track cassette recorder (which I will need to buy if this is a viable option) to my MRS-8 and do anything with them that way? Specifically I'm hoping that I could record each of the four single tracks to the SD card and then tweak them once in the MRS-8, but I guess it might be more complex than that. Any ideas will be very welcome. Many thanks in advance.
Vince

slubberdegullion copy error 0 Jan 3 2011, 4:15 PM EST by slubberdegullion

I have a zoom mrs8 and I was inputting drum rythymns to make backing for a song i had recorded.The recorder seems to get stuck and a copy error message
comes up and I can't get out of this cycle.I have tried a factory reset and a factory initialise etc and also tried with the disc provided.
Has anyone had this problem as I only got the mrs8 a couple of weeks before through ebay and this problem means I can't use any rhythymns except the one beat.
any advice would be appreciated Cheers
