Hi, I might have a line on a bunch of modules but the seller unfortunately preemptively destroyed the 32 channel frame. I know it's common to part these guys out. Anybody have a complete frame/chassis still kicking around? Somewhere in the pacific NW? Please contact me if you do. I'll take it...

Anybody know this machine? Not sure where to look first. It can reproduce on ch. 2, but when I put it into record, it doesn't erase or record on that channel. Just plays back what was on the tape already. Record light is on but not recording or erasing previous material. Ch. 1 is fine...

Anybody have an idea where to look for the problem? Both the rewind and play/fast forward motors stopped working the other day. Up until that, no problems recently. Has new rubber if you're wondering. Capstan is fine. Just the reel motors. Both of them. A cap somewhere? ???

Hi folks, I have here a very nice condition Tascam 58 tape machine for sale. The pinnacle of Tascam's 8 track reel to reels. It's had a lot of work done and the last time I aligned it (about 3 weeks ago) I was able to get it flat up to 20K. The transport is perfectly aligned. It's very smooth...

Hey folks, I had this up on ebay, but decided to end it and try to sell it without getting reamed for the fees/shipping. It's a really great piece and deserves a good home. It's had all the plastic gears lubricated, the motors lubricated, the pinch roller replaced and very importantly, the...

Hey folks, I have 3 tape machines that need work (Tascam 58, Otari MX5050 BII, and Ampex 440B) I'm having a hell of a time finding anybody willing to work on them though. The two techs here that I keep hearing about, Michael Everhart and Allen Garren, are too busy to take on new clients. So...

For pics, see the craigslist post here: Catalinbread Formula 5 TC Corona Chorus DIY stuff etc. I'll try to keep it updated. Add appropriate shipping. Catalinbread Formula No 5 pedal. Great shape. $100 TC Electronics Corona Chorus $80 Virtually new. I used it maybe 3 times. Pickups GFS...

Hey folks, I'm getting way different AC voltage readings than the schematic calls for. Sorry I don't have the ability to post one page of a pdf here, but the manual (with schematics at the end) can be found here: Free Otari Schematics and Manuals - from AnalogRules.com and AudioSchematics.com...

Hey folks, I have a bent 58 reel table that is causing issues with my transport. Anybody have one of these from a parts machine somewhere? I think they're the same on 38's/48's/58's. Let me know. I'd love to buy it. Can do the usual paypal thing. Jon jonw541 at yahoo dot com

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxhl4_0-Xgg&feature=youtu.be The transport pulls the tape upward when I enact rewind. See video. I've adjusted tension on the machine for play, rewind, and fastforward using a tentelometer. And I've adjusted as much as I can the left reel table height, the left...

Hey folks, As described in other threads, ATR tape is thicker than the usual 456/SM911 that the Tascam 8 tracks were designed for. And it seems to be making the transport work harder. My question is, what would I adjust on the Tascam to compensate? Tension? Which tension? The tape seems...

Hey folks, I want to buy a few reels of 456, 1/2" Not looking for Ampex era, so nothing before 1995, and preferably nothing after the first time Quantegy shut it's doors. If anybody has some sitting around, let me know what you have (NOS! yes!) or very lightly used, and hopefully some info...

Hey folks. I must be missing something here. Can't figure out what though. I replaced the capstan belt, control belt, pinch roller and idler tires on my tascam 234. Put it all back together, and there is some weirdness. When I press stop, the heads won't disengage. Same when I press one of the...

Anybody have a handy digital copy of the 234 service manual? I would love a copy if you do. Thanks Jon email jonw541 at yahoo dot com

Does anybody know where exactly to put oil in the motors. The bottom pic has my 3 fingers pointing to the capstan motor (looks like there's a little slot on this one marked "F?"), idler motor, and the control motor? Also, second question. When greasing up the control machanism gears I lifted...

Hey folks, I picked up a 244 for cheap, knowing I'd have to replace the belts. I ordered the belts from Teac. I got the idler tires and pinch roller from an ebay source that I've had good luck with in the past. Anyway, capstan is spinning nice and smoothly. All the parts appear to be the...

Hey, If anybody out there has one of these in the closet that needs new belts that you're looking to sell for el cheapo, let me know ($50-$100) I want one. I got big basement plans for the summer. PM or email jonw541 at yahoo dot com

Location is Monterey Bay, CA First thing is an Alesis HD24XR with the Jim Williams upgrade. This machine is a killer. At one point I had an Apogee 800 and these converters just tromped on the 800. Anyway, I do have documentation for the upgrade (cost $750 alone) Comes with a total of 3 caddies...

I'm slimming down on some drum stuff, so here goes Gretsch 16X16 floor tom. This thing is in great shape. It's a stop sign badge era Floor tom, sounds great, has all original hardware as far as I can tell, is nice and round. A few little scratches but over all in really nice shape. No...
