The ONE thing I haven't seen in Dave's photos............

Of all the Tascam stuff I have seen posted by Reel Person, I haven't seen this:

http://houston.craigslist.org/ele/710420670.html

This is local for me. Is this worth the money for me to scrounge up (not to mention take up what little room I have left at the moment)?

jjones,

That's a pretty sweet deal. If you can run tone into each channel and confirm that it is a functioning unit, I say its worth it, especially being local and being able to avoid shipping (and the potential for shipping damage). Being able to try it before you buy it is really great.

Does it have the manual with it?

That's an amazing deal, if only i lived in the US. No chance of getting anything near that quality & price in the UK. 8 Seperate busses, 16 mono mic i/p (all with inserts - i think), looks like it has good long faders as well. I'm incredibly jealous just what i've been looking for

thats around $787 you now understand why when we poor overseas people ask for some buying advice on a budget and we get the responce of "try and save your money and stretch to something better" or it's only an extra $50 we want to crawl into the darkest corner and die. I was going to rant on but after seeing that add in craigs list, i don't have any strength left

We could do with a Craigs List over this side of the pond! Only similar site is Gumtree or the SOS readers adverts which are both usually expensive!

There is a UK version of craigslist but, last I looked, there ain't nothing on there!

i know i hate the uk, i'm buying a rubber dingy and some paddles. Au revoir amigos hope you get confused and drown in my wake. gum tree - who the hell are you? gum tree "fridge door, used, comes with fridge magnets - buyer must live 20.3 miles from my flat and uplift the door by carry unit over head while hopping to "wake me up before you go go"" also buyer must wear bermuda shorts & sandles.

I owned one and I think it's a great mixer and is worth picking up unless you currently have a better mixer. What are you using now?

Ummm..........my 424 mkII........

Cool, I'll see if I can snag it. I'll bring something along to check the inputs for sure. Thanks for the input guys!

[analogkid]

Did you buy it? Because if not I may have to fly down to Houston and steal it.......

I finally got this monster. Holy crap is it huge! It's quite a bit larger than I was expecting, but I snagged it non-the-less. Now, to find a manual and figure out how to use this damned thing!
