so ... how do you be a professional when your client's ADAT master you've been working on for months suddenly folds over and gets damaged by your trusty LX20?
I know I know, how can a guy with an LX20 be professional in the first place?
Seriously though ... the whole tape isn't ruined. It looks like the damage is limited to just a minute or less of tape. One side of the tape is folded over, though ... causing the deck to error out when reading the formatting data. It sounds bad when trying to play it too ... so this tape is not going back in the deck.
I'm not opening this sucker up to dink around with it, either. I wonder if a place that services LX20s would also fix this tape for me? I guess I should just call them and ask.
I don't know if it's a problem with the tape (Maxell Black) or the deck. I'm bummed out though. If anyone can give me a "yeah, man .. I've been there" I'll feel better about it.
Thanks
