FS: Boss BR1600 Digital Studio with CD Burner

Boss BR1600 $300

Excellent all in one digital recording studio with built in CD burner.

BOSS’s BR-1600CD 16-track recorder, the most popular and full-featured portable 16-track on the market, expands with a Version 2 upgrade. Already powerful with its eight XLR inputs for simultaneous recording, pro-grade effects, and backing tracks, the BR-1600CD with Version 2 upgrade (free for all previous BR-1600 units) improves and adds to the existing effects, including COSM® bass amp models from the GT-6B, enhanced vocal tools, MIDI sync capability, and more. Also new to Version 2 — the BR-1600CD can read BR-1200CD/1180CD song data, no conversion process necessary.

16-track (256 V-Track) digital studio with 80GB hard drive and CD-R/RW drive
Record all 8 XLR inputs simultaneously—ideal for tracking live performances
Powerful onboard effects including COSM modeling for guitar, bass and vocals
New Vocal Tool Box with auto pitch correction and Harmony Sequence function
16 individual Track EQs, plus 8 dedicated compressors
Mastering Tool Kit with multi-band compression for loud and punchy CDs
Create backing tracks quickly via independent Drum/Bass and Loop Phrase tracks
USB port for easy data exchange, plus V-LINK video control*
COSM models added (derived from BOSS’s GT-6B)
Enhanced Vocal Tool Box for better vocals and backings
MIDI Slave capable for control from external MIDI devices
BR-1180CD/1200CD data compatible

How did you like the mastering tool kit? Does it also have mastering presets?

I don't have a lot to compare it to but it seems pretty good to me. Yes, it has presets. A quick google search indicates that most people are pretty happy with the tool kit, too.

Frankly, I haven't used it that much which is why I am selling. I just don't need this much device. A simple scratch pad recorder is more my speed.

I skimmed through the manual which is something like 240 pages. :lol: That being said, it seems to be laid out pretty well compared to the Tascam manuals. BTW, do you still have the Tascam recorder?

I do not. I didn't get along with it at all. The Boss makes more sense to me.

I've always found Boss manuals/products to be fairly intuitive. Good luck with the sale!
