Admin-if there are already enough BR80 posts -please move -thanks
I have been given a loan of a BR80-for as long as I want

it's version 1.02 --------
================
First impressions -gaaaaaaaaawwwwd its tiny and so frail looking

flicking through it and spinning the wheel etc-
there seems to be a lot packed into such a small little package
I'm spending time reading up on all the BR80 posts here-and the manual
so it looks like I might have a shot at recording on it during the week -
One question springs to mind -is there a real vocal harmoniser on it

??
now back to the manual and all the posts -

Cant get over how small this yoke is

I'm afraid I'll break it

I'm still rooting around in it -finding something new all the time
recording wise -I am messing about

Yeah, it's pretty tiny. The following pictures are to scale, based on the dimensions listed in the back of each manual. The BR-80 isn't much bigger than the display area of my BR-864! Personally, I don't like tiny. I like the size of my BR-864. But the BR-80 sure does pack a lot of great features into a tiny package.

There is, but I wouldn't recommend it - it's in the COSMs from 141 (under the vocal category) - there's
5th Harmony, 3rd Harmony (and I really wouldn't touch the others)

Best to have a play and try for yourself - it's an amazing little machine but the vocal settings aren't up to much IMO

Have fun

We used the vocal harmonizers to record the backing vocals track in a pseudo-live recording we had the biggest laugh in years. It sounded like a choir of gnomes singing along us and we just couldn't stop laughing. That track was tough to lay down!
