    Remote Control/ high pitched sounds

    Hey people, It's been a while since i posted, but it's good to be back. As some of you may remember I run a small studio based around the Tascam 688 Midistudio (i have 3). I recently upgraded to the Tascam 238 including the rc-88 remote and a beautiful Tascam m-50 board. The thing is: i heard...

    Tascam M-50! (manual?)

    Hey Guys, I just scored a very nice tascam m50 mixing console. It's gonna be the new 'heart' of my analog studio. You guessed it: I need a manual and I want it for free:) because I'm cheap. I seem to have figured out the routing quite well, but not everything is clear. I'm going from 8 track...

    tascam m30 inserts??

    Hey guys, I am thinking about buying a tascam m30 for the use of it's preamps and also for the use of it's simple but effectice eq when mixing down. I kinda outgrew the eq section of my Tascam 688's. There's a small problem. I am not sure, but I don't see any inserts on the m30. Does any of you...

    tascam 688 synching story

    as some of you know I tried to sync two tascam 688's with the tascam Midiizer. After some intense reading/trying and help from you guys I managed to do it. 14 tracks to cassette on two tascam 688's. I started recording this band early this year and we succeeded in synching and recording to two...

    slave won't record

    Hey guys, I thought I was there. My two Tascam 688's sync up nicely with the midiizer(although it's a bummer I have to stripe them seperately), they lock up, play, rew, ffw etc. The master recorder records, but the slave won't. When I press rec/play on the midiizer it just stops after a second...

    synching/monitoring

    Hey Guys, About synching (again): I bought the Tascam Midiizer to sync my two Tascam 688's (did not arive yet). My question is about monitoring, who will this work. I mix over an amplifier to speakerset, but the Tascam's each have monitor out. I do want to be able to listen all tracks (14) at...

    synching 688's

    I am so not into midi synching, but I have two 688's and I can pick up the ES 50 tascam synchroniser with the cable. Will this be enough to synch these units or do I need more stuff? Thanks!

    opinions on Se 2200T

    Guys, I can buy a new Se2200T for 275 euros and I've been looking for an affordable tube mic for some time now. SOS says it's good, but they always say that. Anyusers of this particular mic around here? Can't be worse that the 2200a and that's a well respected mic...I've heard it myself and...

    Rode NT-1000 mod

    I am using a Rode nt-1000 for some months now and I really really like this mic. It does not have that brittle sound (like the chinese and also the Rode nt-1 in my experience), it's very honest and thick enough for a lot of sources. But maybe it can be better? I am especially curious if there's...

    Tascam 122 mk II

    I was just given a tascam 122 mkII, but it's not spinning like it should. It makes a hard rattling sound when play is pressed and only moves slowly. I gues it's the belts? This would be the ideal mixdown machine for me in my all cassette based studio (well except for the cd burner I am mixing...

    Demagger

    Hey guys, Just bought my first demagger. it's the akai ah-9, same one as in the picture. Does anyone ever worked with this one. My goal is to demag my two tascam 688's (so cassette). I've seen/heard people saying to slightly touch the heads and others saying to not touch them. I've never heard...

    Rubber wheel tascam 688

    Hey guys, This is for the 688 freaks I guess. Has anybody here ever changed the rubber wheel? Does anybody even know where to get a new one? I guess they're not made by Tascam anymore, but it looks like a fairly common tape deck size. My wheel is starting to weir out, the part where the tape...

    Good vocal condenser: tb1 or bluebird?

    Hey guys, I have all the mics I want, except for a good vocal mic. I recently borrowed a Rode NT-1 and was pleased with it, but I can't seem to find one anymore and I read/heard the nt1-a was very bright. After some searching I am thinking about the SP TB1 and The Blue Bluebird. I mostly...

    388 trouble

    Hey guys, I recently got me a tascam 388. It wasn't working when I got it but after some recapping and a new belt (done by a tech) it works almost fine. I can record to all the tracks, but track 3 gives me back a bad signal. Much softer and heavily distorted, so my first guess is: the rec...

    syncing 2 688's

    okay, so the title says it all. i know there's the tascam mts-100 and other devices aroudn, but has anybody on this board actually done it? I have two 688's and i would really love to sync 'em so i'll have 14 tracks. I know a pc would be much easier but it's just not gonna happen...cheers!:cool:

    Fostex R8 belt replacing...

    hey guys, need some advice. I borrowed an Fostex R8 from a friend for a recording job and it worked perfectly for about 5 minutes. And then it stopped. It does everything but play/record so my guess is the capstan belt is off or broken (the motors sound fine). I tried to open the machine up...
