I just bought a 788 and I was setting up my drum tracks. My configuration is: SD and BD, seperate tracks, though imp adapters into the normal inputs (AB) then my 2 overhead mics (Behringer ECM800s) into a blue tube mic preamp into the two aux inputs (LR) to channels 5+6. Anyways, the SD and BD...

I'm planning on buying a new digital studio, but I need to buy something under like 900 dollars. The two best deals I have found so far are the Yamaha MD8 and the Tascam 788. I'd be mostly recording funk, rock, and jazz. I like how the Yamaha can record 8 tracks at the same time and uses MD, but...

How many tracks can the 788 record simultaneously? Thank you.

I was thinking about getting a Tascam 788 digital recorder. Would this work= track 1 - SD track 2 - BD track 3 +4 - overheads, L and R all this bounced in stereo to stereo track 7/8 on the tascam. Would this work and would it sound just as good as when they were three seperate tracks...

best drum heads ever: Aquarion Texture Coated Studio-X heads. Thank you very much and good night.

How is the tascam 788 an 8-track recorder when there are only 7 faders?

On the tascam 414 mkii, there are two stereo tracks 5/6 and 7/8. I have used these for patching in effects, only to be disappointed that it seems to create two different sounds, the normal sound, and the effected sound. Anyways...you can obviously record stereo stuff into it, but how. For...

what would be the best way to record a mountain dulcimer? mics: 2 behringer ecm8000 2 shure sm57 recorder: tascam 414

what would be the best combinations of tracks to be bounced to one track on my four track portastudio: with the following tracks: bass, drums, marimba, acou. guitar the marimba and bass play a similar tune, a la under my thumb the drum part is fairly complicated and fits in oddly w/ the music...

I am having some trouble getting a good bass sound on my Tascam 414 portastudio mkii. What is happening is the bass is getting lost in the mix. The song we are playing has bass solos in and out of the chorus, that are only a measure long. These bass solos always seem to kind of get drowned...

I use a four track to record and I have an RNC. Does it make any difference whatsoever if I patch the effects into the tracks after they've been recorded (effect 1, 2) instead of recording the tracks through the compressor as you're recording?

I was wondering what would be the best positioning for my two Behringer ECM8000s as drum overheads. I've heard they should be as high up as possible and I've heard they should be level with the drummers ears. So, what would be the best positioning? We record in a 3 car garage with lots of 'verb...

I have recorded most of my band's new album on my Tascam 414 portastudio but I realized I had no way of putting it on cd. I don't have an external cd burner, only one on my computer, but my sound card is all screwed up so I can't use that. Would it be at all possible to send someone my four...

I recently lost a mic clip for one of my Behringer ECM8000s. I noticed the sizes of these condensers always seem to be different and I was worrying about whether or not I would be able to find a new one that would fit. Is it possible to find the same size mic clip at Guitar Center or do I need...
