Critic Reviews

Fostex VM200 & VR800

soundonsound.com

Fostex's VR800 offers a solid digital recording experience, but it falters with a confusing interface and limited functionality. While its ease of use and reliable performance stand out, the lack of aux returns and onboard dynamics processing are glaring omissions. The EQ and effects are decent but not exceptional, falling short of what competitors offer at this price point. It’s a capable multitrack recorder, yet its restrictive design choices may leave serious users wanting more, especially in a studio setting. Ultimately, the VR800 excels in simplicity but suffers from critical limitations that may disappoint more advanced users.
