Just jumped back in to recording today and fired up the 80-8 with a reel of used Scotch 206 1/2". I had other reels of 206 and 207 available but wanted to test with a used reel first as it had recordings on it from a prior band (not mine). A friend of mine recorded some vedic mantras, and we...

Is it currently even possible to build or acquire a 5258 or link eight 351's up to the transport? My setup is tube from the amps to the board. My multi-track is sadly not, and the board is 8-track. This is actually for my business, and not the home studio, so there are more funds available to...

Would it be possible to turn old vinyl in to new blanks to be lathed, or could it be re-pressed? Any chance at all of using worn out vinyl to make new records?

I thought I would bring up a topic that pertains to me but also to others as well I'm sure. I am a singer and also have asthma. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or tricks to improve upon weak lung function while also suffering from asthma. I'm not just talking exercises but anything you...

Hey guys, I have one these available in great condition. Let me know if you're interested, or in need of one.

Does anybody know the approximate weight of a 1/2" 2500' reel of tape? Calculating some shipping costs so I don't get taken for a ride.

I've read as many threads on as many sites as I can, but does anybody have a straight answer on whether or not its possible to have one reverb unit supply reverb to each channel, and could you control the amount of reverb on each channel as well? How could you do this with say a Space Echo...

I'm looking for a good bulk source of scotch 206 1/2" at 2500'. PM me or reply to the thread if you can help.

Any regulars here looking to part ways with one of these? You'd literally be making my last two years, not only my day. PM me and we can work something out. Also, sorry if this doesn't belong here but the ad thread is dead and I get no replies.

PM me with any pictures and information.

PM with offers. I'm selling these as is, and can tell you that the CX-310 needs new belts, and that the 80-8 was used as a parts machine by its previous owner. The 80-8 is missing the playback head, a NAB hub, some plastic parts (buttons/switches/small covers), new rubber for the pinch roller...

I have in my possession a beautiful but non-working CX-310. Both belts have turned to an oily goo, but the replacements are available and I'm going to go ahead and fix it to turn it in to my temporary mastering machine. I'm hoping as I acquire more old equipment I can start doing these regularly...

Hey guys, I've been weighing up how soon I wanted to incorporate a 2-Track Reel to Reel in to my chain for mastering. In the meantime I have acquired an old TEAC CX-310 Cassette deck (Circa 1981?) and figured I could get some ideas on it just playing guitar and singing before I seriously record...

I ordered some new tape from Full Compass and was told RMGI USA is out of stock on 1/2" sm911. I was told the same thing by another company. Anyone hear of anything else being out? Tapes.com told me they had sm468. They at least had that, but maybe just because they hadn't sold it yet. What's...

Whats the deal on this machine? What does it sound like, a Teac or an Ampex? Is it reliable? Does anyone have experience with these?

Has anyone tried using ATR tape on a Tascam 80-8? Is it even able to be used on one?

So I moved in to a new house, saved the bigger bedroom for my studio, and I was hoping to get some suggestions on placement and then soundproofing. Sadly this room must act as my control room AND live room. The room is around 20ftx20ft with about 12-15ft high ceilings. The floors are original...

I just moved in to a new house, moved all my recording gear over, starting plugging things in, and when I sat down to play my guitar through an amp (plugged in to a conditioner) I got radio signals coming in to it. Apparently I live about a mile from a radio station. Im pretty much having a...
