No


But I do Use The Roland CD2 recorder    it is the coolest toy and soo easy to use
I put a 1gig memory card in mine and can record for about four hours straight.


Burns to disc as well...I love this thing

I just got the Marantz cdr300 yesterday - I figured out how to record with it last night.  The sound on the recordings is awsome.  I still have a lot  to learn about using it.  It does a lot more than I actually need.  

Thanks for the response,

yes I have sound on sound too .. can do as many track add on's as You want .
Ill have to google yours ..a friend of mine wants one but dont want to spent $700.00 for a roland.

Have fun

Just googled it nice machine.

mine records to a compact flash card and assignes track #'s everytime you start to record another song. once you get all your songs you can master the recordings then select which ones you want to burn to disc.

I take mine to my solo singing show and take the tape outs of my mixer into the line inputs of the Recorder. then I also add two external mic's to record the live audiance sonds as well. the final result is pretty good.

I also take it to some friends Karaoke show's and record the singers and give them the disc with just them singing on it so they can see how much they suck or dont suck.

love my toy

That sounds fantastic.  I've only been singing for about ten months - mostly karaoke on the weekends.  I bought my equipment so that I can practice at home.  To make a long story short, I was offered a deal to sing four nights a week at one of our local restaurants here in Port Isabel.  So now I'm singing solo at Pirates Landing.  Heck, I'm astonished that anyone would want to listen to me sing much less pay me for it.  I made my first practice recording today - I haven't really learned how to use the machine right yet.  Plus I live in a condo here and every time I sing above a whisper the people upstairs calls the police.  

I'd like to upload my first one her but haven't quite figured how what format and how to do the actual upload.  

Once again thanks for the come back,

Maybe, just maybe, you forgot to get the mp3 to fit your upload quota. Its 3mb or less if you are a non paying member.

If you go to my Profile on singers showcase I have a few tunes there that are recorded live at my show with the Roland.
Theres one I know for sure off hand  thats there it's "LADY" by the little River band
There was no audiance mic's used that night. but you can hear the way this thing records.

I finally got my songs uploaded - the Morantz also cost $700.  Not cheap, but I'm had a lot of fun playing with it.  Your System sounds great.  Heck the Morantz makes me sound better than I really am.  The last song I uploaded was recorded after I sang four hours in the heat.  It's not great but the Morantz pulled me out.  

My gigs are four hour each, so for right now I'm fighting to add songs to sing.  I spend a lot of time listening to Napster finding songs that I want to learn.  Big problem is finding the cdg after I find the song.  But for the most part everythings ok.  I sing all the old songs, mainly because this is tourist city and my job is to entertain the winter texans and summer visitors.

Lol, if you guys only knew hehe.  I am using karafun and recording at my computer.  I have to turn the music as loud as it will go and sing really close to the mic just so the music and I can be heard, but oh well it works for me  LOL
