If he wants to clear track space on the recorder, submixing to a buss (or 2 for stereo) and sending to an open track or tracks is the way to go. As I've mentioned several times before, the sync head has the same specs as the play head so there is no reason not to use it unless the new track is...

What about in sync mode?

The MB-20 is a worth while unit but I strongly disagree about the Model 2 and 2A. Their performance is subpar and is very prone to outside interference.

I doubt using them makes any real difference. FYI - Operating a deck upright puts more wear on its motor bearings because they are supporting their own weight. Motors for TASCAM decks of are no longer available nor are the DC motors rebuildable.

Recorded during the days of wearing a mask but not released until last year with a bunch of other covers.

This doesn't sound like a mic problem. More like a sympathetic resonance from either guitar, amp or both.

Right. I was thinking about the 315 bidirectional mic. I have a 330 but don't use it all that much.

My guess is that the ribbon isn't up to snuff anymore. They can sag or get stretched out with age or from too much direct sound pressure. It doesn't take all that much to damage a longish ribbon like that mic uses. That being said, try turning the mic a few degrees so that the sound doesn't...

My 1st choice would be a good ribbon mic such as an RCA 44, 77, or Beyerdynamic 160.

Given the choice, I'll use a console.

The headphone volume pot controls the output of the headphone out jack on the right front panel of the mixer. The source for that output is the Bass/submix switch next to the volume pot.

."Homemade With Teac." That's me on the cover.

You're probably thinking of "The Multitrack Primer," written by my friend and producer, Dick Rosmini.

The simplest thing to do would be to leave a jumper in full time until you need to insert a device. The signal isn't going to care.
