5.0 out of 5 stars WORKS WITH BOSS BR-600, January 30, 2010

This review is from: Transcend TS1GCF80 1GB 80x Type I Compact Flash Card (Personal Computers)

I tried a few different CF cards in my Boss BR-600 recorder and none of them worked until I got this one. I saw several forum posts by individuals who said this particular card is not compatible with the device, but I have found that it is and works great! This is also a much better deal than other CF cards that have reportedly worked with the BR-600 (such and SanDisk cards which seem to be significantly more expensive.) Some posts I have read report that this card is not compatible due to the 80x speed, but the CF card that comes with the device is 80x. This particular CF card meets all specifications (Type I, no faster than 80x, 1 Gb maximum, and not a professional or other enhanced version). Hopefully this review helps clear things up concerning BR-600 compatibility.

5.0 out of 5 stars I bought this for my GNX4 Guitar Work Station and it works, November 2, 2010

I have a discontinued GNX4 work station which only supports Type I CompactFlash cards for storing memory. With this work station, I can record guitar tracks and loop them and play over them. However, one day my memory card no longer functioned and I was unable to record for the longest time. When I finally realized I could search for it on Amazon, I found this product and this one works perfectly and I can record myself playing now.

I don't have any cameras which only use Type I or anything, so sorry if you were looking for a review about taking pictures and stuff, but if you're looking for a card supported by the GNX4, this one is it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for BR-600 after firmware upgrade, December 19, 2011

After reading the reviews here I purchased 4 of these cards for use in my Boss BR-600 digital recorder. When I inserted the first card I got an "Unsupported Card" error from the recorder. Turns out the recorder needed a simple firmware update. Available from Roland:

Once the firmware update was complete ( version 1.11 ) the card worked perfectly.
