Hey everyone, I've got a question about remote wiring for 440-c models. Or possibly a machine setting. Here's my problem: all buttons work on the remote except for play and record. Nothing happens when I press record, which is normal. When I press play the BIAS lights up on the machine. Even...

Hey everyone, I haven't been here for a while! I'm looking for a counter roller for MSR16. Please let me know if anyone's got one for sale. I'd really appreciate it.

I'm looking to buy a tape recorder. Ideally a 16 track 1", or at least a Fostex G16 or similar. I'm looking at different options. Tascam ATR, Otari MX70... let me know if you have something like that for sale and your location. Thank you!

Hi! How much a 1965 re-painted Jazzmaster would sell for? With a case :) Thanks

Hi everyone, I just got a half track Otari MX50-N, it looks and sounds very good, although I've noticed that channel 2 doesn't erase when recording on top of old stuff, channel 1 is alright. Heads are clean. Since it doesn't erase at all (not even a bit), I'm guessing: either it's a physical...

Hi everyone, I have a 70s Princeton Reverb, but I'd like to switch the original speaker (it's a 10") to an alnico as I prefer that sound... luckily I have a 12" 30 watt Weber. My question is - should I do it? If I understand correctly, the 12 watt amp isn't gonna drive the 30 watt speaker as...

Are these worn? :confused:

The deck has 3 multi-pin connectors at the back for: external capstan control, parallel remote control, and fader start. Would I be using the one in the middle? :confused: Could someone recommend me a syncbox for this machine?

I think I found my dream machine: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290183297738&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=019

What happened to my rep power?? :eek::confused:

Hi, I've got a capacitor in my amp which I believe needs to be changed (re-caped), it reads: "RIKEN 10 MFD Red 10 MFD Red 2 MFD Yellow 350 WVDC CAN-NEGATIVE" I haven't found anything like it on the web stores. What should do? :confused: The amp is from late 50s. Sorry if this is a wrong forum...

I have a Morley Wah/Volume made in Hollywood, Ca in 1970. No squeaking, big box with all original electronics, works great. Would like to exchange it for a delay pedal, or a 12" alnico 8Ohm low wattage (25-30) speaker, or Antiquity II for Mustang pickups. Or $115 shipped. Mine looks almost like...

I've heard it many times that ribbon mics are easely damaged by high volume, even while singing and even by wind outside. Now, when miking an instrument, or say a guitar cab, how bad is it for the diaphragm? Or are there different ribbon mics?:confused:

Could anyone explain to me what's so great about this guy? 'Cause I can't stand every record he's done. Those drum sounds and that muddy bass...:confused: I am missing something?

I'm thinking of putting Jazzmaster pickups on my Mustang and I've got some questions. If the pickup size problem is put aside (I guess that making a bigger hole in the pick-guard isn't hard), is there anything else I should think of? I'm concerned with: the pickup distance (are they gonna be far...
