Not an X2000R. It's a 1/4 track consumer machine with auto-reverse, a function that is a real pain and pretty useless in the studio. Look for one of their 1/2 track machines that run @ 15ips. The 3300 series machines are among the oldest but are very good and have very stable transports. Be aware that anything you buy will probably need some service to bring up to snuff.
