Howdy everyone. I dusted off my old Tascam 424 Mark 1 and was planning on "Digitally Remastering" some of my old stuff recorded on this 424. Then Maybe I'll do some new recording on it.. (I just wish it had XLR inputs) The plan was to input 1 track at a time in Adobe Audition and then remix...

I have a Tascam 424 Mk1 thay I have had since the early 90's... I was thinking about pulling it out and using it again, but I was wondering how you guys are using them ? Are you recording to tape, then mastering to digital? I should probably pull it out, dust it off, and fire it up, see if it...

Some of you gents might dig this... Started with the NADY RSM-4 Removed the Inner screens and re-tensioned the ribbon... sounded like this with my fat fingers, 12 String, and the Mic about 10" from the 12 fret, angled toward the Neck/Body Joint...

Well, as you can see...I don't buy effects that often.. The input, output and power jacks have finally bit the dust and I called the US distributor for Zoom and they couldn't believe one still lived... Well, it looks like the parts are becoming next to impossible to find to fix it.. Any one...
