Hey all... I am new here, and if someone has posted on this recently, I apologize. I've looked and done a search and don't see anything, so I'm going to go ahead and post and hope I am not in the wrong place.
1. I used to do home recordings all the time in the 90s, and then as my band got a bit more successful, I moved on to going into studios, making albums, etc... Now, I want to record at home again, and I want to go mostly analog.
2. I'm supposed to buy a Tascam 246 tomorrow... price is $400, and it's in pristine condition except it needs a pinch roller... just the rubber... I've found replacements for $17. Soooooo.... this SEEMS to be a good price for these machines these days. Is that true? When I look at these forums, I see a lot of older posts about pricing, but not current, so I'm not sure.
3. Because of these forums, I am now convinced I need (want) a Tascam 388. What should I expect to pay for one of these?
Thanks in advance.
