Taken from Introduction at BOSS BR-1180/BR-1180CD Owner’s Manual:
Simple operation
The BR-1180/1180CD is designed to be operated as easily as a cassette tape recorder, even by beginners. Additionally, the large liquid crystal display allows you to view and confirm various information in graphic format. Whether you are simply preparing a demo tape, or are getting ready to go to master with your first album, the simple operation of the BR-1180/1180CD allows you to create digital recordings the very day you take it out of the box.
Digital audio workstation
All processes are fully digital
In addition to a digital mixer and digital hard disk recorder, the BR-1180/1180CD also features two internal digital effects systems.
By connecting a DAT recorder, MD recorder, or other digital recorder to the DIGITAL OUT jacks, you can perform all the steps needed for professional-level music recording, including editing, bouncing tracks, applying effects, and mixing down, entirely within the digital realm, so there is no degradation in the signal quality.
Handles uncompressed recording and playback
The BR-1180/1180CD handles linear 16-bit uncompressed recording and playback, allowing you to record with the same sound quality as the original, with no deterioration in the sound.
Of course, when you want to be economical with your recording time, yet maintain sound quality, you can still record and play back using conventional compression techniques.
Equipped with V-Tracks
The BR-1180/1180CD includes a total of ten recording tracks, allowing you to record and play back eight independent tracks with two-track stereo recording and playback, making it possible to get simultaneous two-track recording or simultaneous ten-track playback.Moreover, each track incorporates eight virtual tracks, called “V-Tracks,” for a total recording capability of 10 x 8 = 80 tracks!
This increased versatility allows you to do things such as record numerous takes of a guitar solo, which you can later choose from when putting it all together.
Two versatile digital effects processors
The BR-1180/1180CD contains two types of effect unit. One type is for recording (insert effect) and the other type is independent send/return effects (loop effect). These two types can be used simultaneously. This means that the BR-1180/1180CD is all you need to produce a sophisticated song without using external effect devices.
The BR-1180/1180CD has many built-in simulations and effects, including amp simulation with COSM for a wide variety of insert effects.
You also get a wide variety of effects, including everything from the guitar effects you would expect, to vocal and keyboard multi-effects and mic simulators.
The loop effects include spatial effects such as chorus, delay and reverb, which are vital for proper stereo mixdown.
By using the insert effects and loop effects together, you can add both sound and spatial effects to your music at one time.
Editing Functions
With the BR-1180/1180CD, you can perform editing operations such as copying, moving, and erasing, previously unheard of with multitrack recorders that use tapes.
For example, you can have just a four-measure drum pattern repeated any number of times you want for use with break beat music, and have the same chorus inserted both at the beginning and end of a song.
Non-destructive editing
Since this is hard disk recording, you can perform nondestructive editing.With non-destructive editing, after performing any editing and recording operations, you can still return your data to its previous state (undo and redo functions).
Actually, the features written in the Owner's Manual BOSS BR-1180/BR-1180CD much. However, some of the features presented above, seems to have fairly represent what a great BOSS BR-1180/BR-1180CD.
