    TASCAM Portastudio 424 mkiii playing backwards

    I can't guarantee it but based on what he is describing I assume he's doing the recording and then taking the tape out and putting it into his cassette player without mixing down. These things make me feel old. Like when they went out on the street and showed people one of these and none could...

    TASCAM Portastudio 424 mkiii playing backwards

    No. I think it's acting as it should. Did you mix down to a regular deck? I think you are playing the multi-track recording in a conventional cassette player? In a normal tape deck the heads read half the tape. Left or right half. One side plays one way and the other plays the other way. A...

    Tascam DP-02 MultiFX issue

    I have a DP02 and can't remember experiencing that. I know I've recorded vocals using the onboard vocal effect and even the guitar effects. The only thing I can think of would be assigning the effect to one input and assigning the track to another input. I'm trying to even think how that would...

    Autotune and improving your vocals

    Firstly your voice sounds worse to you than it does to others. I pretty much guarantee it. There are professional artists who just can't listen to recordings of their voice and of course to the rest of the world it sounds great. Jason Isbell has said he can't listen to his singing and to me it...

    Best Portable Multitrack Recorder for My Purposes yo son

    I've owned several of the Tascam units. I used a DP02 for a few years and it was ok. I moved up to a DB32 which is a lot more complicated to use but also good. I can't speak to the onboard mic in the 32. I've always used either a preamp or a small mixer going into them. With my own mics. The 03...

    Bit of a problem! Is there a solution?

    He should have all the tracks as separate tracks already. DP 32 puts them all together in the music folder under the song name. Creating the master is what consolidates all the individual tracks into one track. Export them individually as explained above

    I got the 990 and 993 in the package deal from musicians friend. I've been happy with them. $120 for both. Just checked and it's still there. MXL 990/993 Studio Package | Musician's Friend

    Getting Louder using plugins?

    I try to keep from hitting the limiter and then ideally raise the volume during mixdown. Lately I've just been raising the volume on the final mix using a dumb free program that I downloaded. If you don't want anything fancy there are apps that do just that. I downloaded a free app that actually...

    Got my DP32

    Got my funk on. It was just something simple to prove the 32 is working. I still haven't gotten my system down on the 32 yet. No hurry. I get things by messing with them. Good things with the 32 and some that I miss. I liked how on the DP02 the delay effect had a dedicated pot above each track...

    Got my DP32

    Actually this seems like the most relevant thread from the Tascam forums. I hope I'm like the guy who had problems with the supplied card and put in a new one, formatted and never had another problem. But it seems the issue is very very common. I really hope I can get past all this. I want to...

    Want to add some background vocals to a song?

    Try vocal processor. I know this is an old thread but nobody did mention any of the vocal processors. It's very easy to get a choral sound all by you lonesome. Amazon.com: TC Helicon VoiceTone Harmony-G XT Vocal Effects Processor: Musical Instruments I use it on damn near everything. At least...

    PROTECT YOUR EARS !!!!!! You Only have 2 of Them!

    I have tinnitus. I'm one of the lucky ones that it doesn't really bother me. Some people are driven half nuts by it. I've thought of trying some of the various meds for it. But they sound a bit like snake oil. I may give one a rip. Amazon.com: Tinnifree Maximum Strength Tinnitus Formula with...

    Got my DP32

    Yeah I saw that. I'm actually pretty confident that I will find a solution. I just don't have the time till this weekend. A couple people found that there would be several zero length files in the song directory. Removing them has fixed the issue in several cases. I think it has to be something...

    Got my DP32

    Yeah I'm being sure to shutdown before messing with the card. I can't remember if I played from the SD card or not. That did cross my mind since Media Player might put a file into the directory. But in any event I played only one of them. As soon as I heard the mix on my computer I decided that...

    Got my DP32

    I don't remember. How does that effect corrupting the song files? Again. I had no problem getting the master file onto the PC. BTW I'm a software engineer so none of these concepts are difficult for me. But right now it feels like the Tascam is made of spider webs and if you make the wrong move...

    Got my DP32

    Yes. Again that's not the problem. I can get to the master file fine. I can play it on the pc. But the songs won't open on the Tascam recorder any longer. I took out the SD card and carried it downstairs to my pc and copied the master over and it works fine. Then I carried the SD card back...
