The singer/songwriter of my band bought the Boss BR-8 Digital 8-track recorder and we have done some recordings with it the last three days. I must say, I'm amazed how good it sounds (it stores the data on a ZIP) and how easy it is to use. I remember my old VS-880 EX and it was a pain in the ass.
The Boss has quite some limitations (only 2 tracks simultaneous recordable, not much space on a Zip, copying from Zip to Zip takes too long by far!...) but for demos it's o.k. And it's pretty cheap.
If you're looking for a digital 8-track that's easy to use you should check it out!
