It was supposed to be so simple...
I just got a used Tascam MX-2424 recorder, I have hooked it up to my Apirit Folio mixer using the analogue connections, and can monitor a drum machine signal I'm using to try to figure it all out. However, I don't seem to be able to arm the tracks for recording...pressing the REC SEL button and the track select buttons gives me no pleasing little lights on the meters. The guy who used it before had a couple of them linked up and used the remote, so may have left it in a mode which defeats these buttons. I have switched from remote to local control and tried other stuff, but am now ready to cry!
Also the time remaining on the HD seems to be 00.00.00. mins which looks less than encouraging, although there is nothing file-wise there. Am I missing something or have I bought a turkey?
Please kind people help me out here?
Thanks so much for any helpful assistance you can offer a thicko/newbie.
