Can anyone offer me some advice regarding getting a stand alone CD recorder for our new facility?

We have a budget of approximately £550 and our usual supplier has suggested a choice between the HHB830 burnit or the Marantz CDR510. We had originally wanted a Tascam CD-RW 2000 but have been told that they are now out of production.

Came across this device in Recording Magazine i thought the crowd here might find it interesting...

I know most of the people on this site prefer the DAW systems due to flexibility. And the avoidance of the stand-alone due to obsolescene.

Rick started a thread about a recording setup for beginners. It's important to pick a good device to record sounds with, and I wanted to take a little survey.

In the other thread Rod mentioned how fond he was of his Korg unit, I mentioned how much I liked a roland unit that I own, and now I want to know what every one else has.

I have a P3/1Ghz (or something, where can I find all the technical BS about my MOBO on a PC) currently with a Frontier Designs WaveCenter PCI card. I'm looking to turn this strictly into a "synth" machine.

I'm looking for opinions on standalone monitor units. With DAWs, one can do a lot of mixing but they're sorely lacking for master sections with speaker selection and talkback.

Hello,

Thanks to all for your input on building the studio.

I'm going to go the computer route. However, I've got a bunch of stuff that I'd like to record asap in highest quality form that I can burn to CD, while I complete the longer term goal of building and learning the computer system.

The topic title speaks for itself. Which do you think is the best approach? Advantages of one over the other? I’m not questioning software but rather hardware issue. Your opinions please?

I am looking for some user comments and comparisons of the Alesis HD24, Tascam 2424, Mackie Hd24, Radar's contribuion to the same field.

So far I had been thinking about the Alesis model. Now I hear that the Mackie has just dropped price dramatically.

Which one of the above (or others) should I get as a most bang for the buck?
