I had the Tascam 388 which was also called the Studio 8 by the way. I had one customer who wanted me to record Handel's Messiah in a cathedral. I carried the Tasm 388 to the church, used two Rode NT5 mics and recorded the concert. It came out great. I loved the way music sounded when recorded through it as it had a warmer (duller) sound. Here are my thoughts on it. The mic pres are clean but not too clean or sterile. Nothing amazing about them but nothing bad either. They don't have that sparkled top end but have a slight warmer mids. The EQ is one of the weak things about this unit. They are ok, but I have many plug in EQ's including the Cubase Studio EQ which are much more powerful which include hp filters. The EQ is a little grainy, but it does the job. The transport worked very well, and I never had an issue with my machine. It was fun using reel to reel even though it took longer to record a song because you needed to wait for the machine to get to the beginning of the song with rewind. In using tape, the more you redo a part over and over again, you start to lose the high end a little. I always cleaned the tape heads and I demagnetized them after a certain amount of time. I bounced tracks all the time to get more tracks to work with. I used it with a Roland R8 drum machine with this unit. But once drum software came out like the original BFD drums, this unit started to be more limited compared to what the latest technology had to offer. Unlimited tracks with Cubase, so many EQ's, reverbs, and compressor plugins to use on every track. Then with 24-bit recording which was cleaner and had more headroom. I had a Alesis Quadraverb that I used with the 388 but it seemed like working with a dinosaur compared to DAW recordings that not only offered so many more features, but it was faster to record things as well. One concern after using this for a couple of years was the heads started to get worn and it would have cost a good junk of change to upkeep the unit. Since I needed money to switch over to Cubase with a A/D, D/A box with mic pre's, I sold my Tascam 388. I wish I could have kept the machine to do special recording projects with it. In addition, you could get the 2 bus out and input it into Cubase. Then add plug ins and drum software like Superior Drummer 3. Having a hybrid studio with Tascam 388 and Cubase would have been interesting to do at times. I will admit it, I miss the Studio 8.
