I have found out that it looks like one of my 22-4,s is biased for 457 tape and the other looks like it is set up for 407.
When I record a tone in to the recorder at 0 vu in the source mode and play it back the meters are at 7 on play back but if I use 457 they go up where they should be acept one channel and its a little low.
I have never set the recording bias before and Im not sure about what they are saying in the manual. They mention needing a test tape to do this.
I didnt think one was needed as long as you had a 1k tone to record as you where setting the bias. is this correct or do I need a ohm meter and everthing like that to set the bias back to 407 standards?
I hope this makes sense
