Their limiter doesn't work like that Ralf. It's a hybrid type. If its enabled the analog record attenuated by 12db, but compensated by a 12db gain digitally. When the signal hits the limiter, the digital gain compensation is removed. Leaving the adc un clipped. Its not as good as limiters solely in the analog domain, but a good compromise. If recording 24bit this isn't to much of a problem. Especially on the f8 as you can use the other 4 preamps to record at a different level.
My take on all this, is the more the merrier. Having an all in one small unit, however non professional is great. I have a twirling720 lite, which works with my phone. I have it on me all the time. Not exactly professional standard, but some of the sounds i have recorded, would not of happened if it was pro gear. I just wouldn't risk losing it. Its cheap and Its small, and i always have my phone anyway...
