Device works well but it did not come with a power cord!!

Does the job, easy to use

I'm far from a professional musician, but I really like the quality of the unit. Its fairly easy to use and a snap to set-up. I use it to record my harmonica jams with a guitarist. The quality of the recording using the built-in mics is outstanding. My only quibble is that the LED display is not back-lit and at times I can't see it so well. Other than that, I'd be giving this five stars. Would definitely buy it again. Highly recommended.
