hi. I used the optical out to go into the optical in on my Mac, and ran it into an audio capture program called Audacity. It sounds pretty darn good. Better...
Forget the BR-8 if you got a Mac. Just go get Pro Tools M-Powered ($250 or so) and an m-audio interface ($150ish) and it'll expand your music creating...
If you have a Mac, then use Garage Band for crying out loud (that's why I sold my BR 8). Do NOT bother with Pro Tools, just get an m-audio pre USB interface...

It's too easy to find fault with the BR8 because technology has passed it. But depending on your budget and need, it's still a great tool. I also have the...
Ok, so how new is your mac? If you have tiger you should have windows xp emu on your desktop, so you can use any mac tools and most any windows xp tools as...
I bought a used Br-8 off of ebay and guess what? It didn't work. It powered up but will not read the zip drive. It would just click. I figured it was a bad...
Shaun, I have fixed one of these BR-8's and I would not suggest you try it unless you are very good at surface mount soldering through a microscope. I happen...
Shaun, This is what the manufacture lists for power supply...so as long as it is 2 amps and 9 volts DC then you'll be ok. Robert Power Supply DC 9V AC Adaptor...
Sounds like it might be the IC21 problem. Search our message archives for IC21 and see if it sounds like your unit. At one time, Boss repaired this for free....
My unit did not come with the original power cord and I'm getting a feeling that could be the problem. I'm buying a PSB1U off of ebay and will give that a...

OK...Sorry Robert but this is the sci-fi version of what has happened to some of the BR8s. Very entertaining but not accurate. And from one (Ex) US Navy...
There's actually a link to a site where someone fixed this themself in our Links area. It includes pictures. It also says you assume all risks and I repeat...
Best of luck getting Boss/Roland to repair it. They want to charge for everything, especially if you bought it used from another person. My fault on the...
The other day I was recording some stuff with a mic and I got a shock off the mic when I was playing my electric plugged into an amp. So I busted out my volt...
Were you plugged into the same outlet for both the BR-8 and the amp? Are your outlets 3-prong? Check the ground on the outlet(s), make sure they are working...
They are plugged in the same strip outlet. it's 3-prong and tests ok with an outlet tester. the amp doesn't have a polarity switch. I'm not using any ground...
hello everyone. Id like to know if anyone besides me has upgraded their br-8 to the 750mb drive. I've scanned this group and don't see any mention of it. I...
There are others that have done the 750MB upgrade with success. I purchased a Card drive Model: IISDMC2 a while back. I haven't had a chance to try installing...
