    2688 with a "Transport Error" message

    I recently scored a 2488 on ebay for $60.00. It was listed as an "as is/ for parts or repair". The seller stated that he bought this from someone and he didn't know how to use it. He said it would boot up (screen would light up) but that was all it would do. I figured worst comes to worse, I can...

    Help. I Want to Slave one 788 to another 788. How do I Do That?

    I have two 788's and I want to use them together to provide more tracks to record to (at least 14) I don't have a manual but I've been told this can be done from some other owners via MIDI. If I understand correctly, the 788 will respond to MMC not MTC. How much of a cryptic process is...

    TASCAM 788 Woes !!!!

    I know, I know......it's old from a technology perspective yet I have always loved this thing since i purchased it 01. I recorded several demo albums with it over the years. Now a days, with my software DAW (Pro Tools based) running my main studio, I have another smaller room where I do wav...

    Is There A Chance For Our Love

    This is a remix of a track I did in my pre-digital days. Trying to get a country flavor out of this (will be using this killer country singer, Joe Zak in the final mix). Want to get opinions on this mix before the next mixdown from some shrewd ears. Please take a listen and give comments good...

    A New/Old Ballad with Some Newer Gear

    Title of this track is Tara's Smile. (some resemblance to some other classic soul song is intentional) This was recorded using a TASCAM 2488 I recently received as a Anniversary/Christmas present. Used the onboard effects on this. (Some light reverb (studio model) and some over easy...

    Cold In Your Corner from Musically Mr M. Your Comments please.

    Been awhile since I posted any tracks to listen to hear. Life has been something else over the last few years and I'm finally getting back to writing and recording. I've built a new studio with several new toys......and some old ones so I can work differently from time to time. This is a track...

    No EQ After Recording Track On My 788............I Must Be Doing Something Wrong.

    Bought a used 788 2 months ago. Didn't have a power supply. Got a new factory supply from Tascam and this 788 looks and works like new. Installed a 40 gig drive in place of the 7.5 that was in it and that's quite adequate for most of the stuff I do with this machine. The problem that I'm...

    Through My Mind's Eye...................

    I thought this was a pretty good attempt. Now I'll let the experts have at it. Have a listen and tell me what you think. This was recorded using a 424MkII, Shure SM58 mics, Alesis Midiverb (oldie but goodie) A home made DI Box for guitar and Bass. Here's the link to the song...

    Let's Get A Little Jazzy, Shall We ?

    An online friend of mine was giving away a Tascam 424 Mk II. I already have a Mk III so I figured being the gear-a-holic that I am, I would take it (pay the 30.00 dollars from Cali Fed Ex and keep it for a spare) In this digital age, tape for most is so passe' but I like it's warmth better...

    "The Wing Cries Mary"..........A New Redition Of Little Wing

    I'll tell you that I never ever considered doing a cover of this song. Every pro has done it. (Tuck and Patti, Clapton, Stevie Ray's outtake, The Corrs) and every amateur-(especially those rugrats that hang out at GC and Sam Ash) The Corrs version really captured my attention from a sonic...

    "TwentY Years"... A New Mix I Need Help With

    A couple of years ago, I wrote a song called "Twenty Years" and of course as a writer, I thought the concept was good (If I don't think it's good, why bother to write it, right?) The song (especially the rhythm guitar motif in the first version) came from a Rolling Stones song "True and True"...

    Veni, Veni (O Come Emmanuel)-An Acoustic Christmas Tune

    A recording of a christmas favorite of mine. I layered this with some ambient synth voice and piano to smooth out a few edges and give it flow and it sounds wonderfully Chip Davis like (Manheim Steamroller) Just in time for Christmas. This recording was done using a mic'd Seagull Acoustic...

    Please Have A Listen To @ New Mixes from Musically Mr M-Something Different

    I 've been working a couple tunes that are of a little bit different variety for me and as usual, I'd love for the keen ears hear to critique them. These have been done exclusively on tape using a Tascam 424.......keep that in mind as the quality may fool you. :) The first one to listen too is...

    I Have An FX's Question and Feel Stupid......

    ......for even asking it but if one never ask, one will never know the answer. :D I hear a lot of people saying they have a "tube driver" or a "blues driver" on their pedal boards. I've heard the sound described as "a tube amp with weak or old power tubes pushed at a high volume...

    All I Want For Christmas........

    and I'm serious :) I want to get 100 people to please listen to my version of "White Christmas" before 12:01 midnight (well a minute after) I have a producer in conjunction with a very reputable label who is willing to give me some valuable studio time as well as getting some industry insiders...

    Please Critique "Twenty Years (Neva' Thought I'd C U Again)"-Listen

    :) Here's a brand new tune that to me is a bit of a departure from what I usually do. Most of my songs are usually built around my guitar but this uncharecteristically isn't. Aside from an ambient chorused guitar, that's about all there is as far as guitar goes. Most folks say this type of...
