Hi, Vintage!
As I mentioned previously, I have a TASCAM MS16. This is a 16 track, one inch reel to reel that is about 16 years old right now.
For the most part it works and sound great but, I do have a couple of channels that intermittently disappear and re-appear when ever they feel like it!
I have tried the usual tricks of re-seating the cards, swapping the cards and cleaning the contacts of the cards where the multi-pins come out of the main board and go into the female receptacle connector on the channel cards.
At times, this seems to help and at others it seems to do nothing!
I was wondering if you had any insight into this type of problem and could think of anything else I should be doing or looking for to get the couple of rouge channels to behave.
Thanks for your input and once again, welcome to the forum!
Cheers!
