The Sabine webpage for this box is 
http://www.liveapps.com/sabine/liveapps/ibktraka.htm
for anybody who is interested.  The Harmony Central description (at 
http://www.harmony-central.com/Newp/WNAMM98/Sabine/Backtrack.html ) says 
"suggested 
list price of $99.95."  The Sabine spec says "17.4 KHz sample rate" so 
don't expect a 
bandwidth above 8.7 KHz.  The Sabine page doesn't list the sample size 
though it 
mentions "8-bit processor".  Probably kinda grainy sounding...

I'd like to play with one of these, too.  Doesn't sound like we should 
expect too 
much, but for a hunert dolla, it could be alot of fun and certainly alot 
of mayhem.

Somebody try it, please!
