Hi friends, I've got a sennheiser md441 and regular female xlr cable ends dont fit in these, the small cable/adapter that came with this mic has shorted out, can anyone tell me the proper name for these cables? Or better send me a link to buy one? Any help appreciated

Man I could write a short essay on the mistakes in my Tascam factory issued manuals with schematics for both my tsr-8 and 38 machines, their are too many to list, but all of the mistakes you can double check somewhere else in the manual to find it correctly stated, like if the mistake is a...

Ok I've got the measurements, hope there accurate enough.. for the machine side of the ears if your machine has those two plastic pieces that screw on both sides of machine, you can use those holes to stencil the machine side of the ears Machine side. .... 15.75 inches X 1.5 inches 1st hole...

Hi, I've got some tsr-8 rack ears.. I'll send some measurements if you want, but you can measure the machine itself, that plastic piece that has 3 screws that go on both sides of the machine has the same measurements as the rack ears, as the rack ears screw into the same holes and are the same...

One more thing to add, I've got a high reading on TV he power supply B pcb as well, one pin that's supposed to read 24v is getting 28v, I've recapped pcb and swapped out everything but transistors on that pcb and no change, that particular pin leads to capo servo pcb, which might have something...

I'm getting voltage readings on the soldering joints of the 'P1' plug in, pin '1' is supposed to get 5v, pin 2-4 are getting 5v readings as well but they aren't supposed to be getting voltage while power is on but play/ff/rew aren't activated, following schematics the voltage is coming from a...

Hello friends, I have a tsr-8 that I accidentally shorted out while checking voltage readings with a multimeter.. pretty sure I fried a logic chip and from what I understand logic chips in a tsr-8 can't be swapped out as they are pre programmed for tascam specs ... will pay top dollar, thanks

thanks Sweetbeats, waiting on some ballpark estimates on relapping… seems JFR doesn't want to give even a ballpark estimate on relapping, response is "too many variables, please send it in" if im only saving 50 bucks id rather just get new, if its say half price id rather relap the heads, just...

trying to decide between having worn play/rec head relapped or just replacing it with a new head, a new head from JPK magnetics runs under $400, not sure price on relapping or lifespan of relapped heads... I only use machine for myself and isn't used more than a dozen songs a year at the most...

ive bought my first tsr-8 in 2016, in great shape with remote, good original play/rec head and a very nice Tascam M2600 24 channel mixer for $500, ive been watching ebay, reverb, googling craigslist nationally looking for tsr-8's going cheap for some reason in the last 6-8 months the price on...

thanks Tom, that helps

hey Im dealing with a wobbly reel on my TSR-8 and finding a replacement reel table seems to be difficult, does anyone know if the reel tables on a Msr-16 are the same as on the Tsr-8? actually kinda new to owning a tape machine and im curious if the wobbly reel issue on the Tsr is a common...

Hi guys, I'm on the search for a reel table assy for my TSR-8, would buy a parts machine if one of the reel tables was in good shape, seems to be a part that is truly dried up, any help would be appreciated
