The Best Gets Better
With the same reliable and ultra-friendly operation as BOSS's highly popular BR-864, the BR-900CD takes three big steps forward by increasing the front-panel fader count from four to eight, and adding a built-in CD-RW drive and Pitch Correction to the feature set. The BR-900CD is compatible with CompactFlash cards up to 1GB capacity, which provides up to 624 minutes of record time (standard mode) in one shot. Even with all of these great new features, the unit's footprint remains small for ease of travel.
