I found my old post where famous beagle tried to be smart at me but failed miserably when i pointed out that he not only cant write tunes well, but that he cant turn the knob on his tremolo well either. So here ya go, you all wanted it and asked me 2 years ago where i learned it all so...

this may be a lame question, but is a tascam 34b the same physical size as a 38? thanks

Hi. I am hoping someone can help me. I have a Roland Space Echo and at some point in its life someone dismantled it entirely and put it back together. There are two outputs on the machine one is the effected signal mixed with the dry signal. The other is just dry signal. When both are...

Well im still having Tascam 38 problems. Its still doing the same things. Play, forward, rewind, record all work fine. Only when the machine tries to stop rewinding either by itself returning to zero, or if i hit stop during rewind will it malfunction. It suddenly starts to make a "yar yar yar"...

This really isnt much of a post, but i think the Tascam reel auctions on ebay are hilarious. There is always some story behind the machine like, the original owner only used it once, but then he decided to travel the world and the machine has sat unused since. And its in PERFECT condition except...

OH MAN. I think my 38 is finally taking a crap for good. Theres nothing i can do about it either. I dont know how to fix reel to reels. This is one crappy ass easter!

I am looking for information of 80s synths like the sound you hear on the Human League's "Keep Feeling Fascination" and so on. Im not sure exactly what kind of keyboard makes that sound. Is there a good 80s pop synth sample set i could check out to get most of these types of sounds? I know alot...

I have a Tascam 38 that is giving me problems. When rewinding, as it comes near 0000 i hear a "RAHRAHRAHRAH" sound, the tape starts going the other way and starts fast forwarding and no buttons on either the remote or the machine can stop it. It has to be shut off. Its becoming a real hassle and...

Can you stop the sweep and manually adjust the sweep position like with the EH Mistress and the MXR? Thanks

I have a Tascam 244 that id like to use but im having some problems. The Belts were recently replaced, so i dont think its those. Whats happening is after being on for around 10 minutes the tape starts playing slow. Is that the motor going bad? Does anyone have any advice on either what is...

My Tascam 38 reel was fine until yesterday when it started acting up. All of a sudden its making a high pitched "whirring" sound (coming from inside the deck, not in the recordings). Also, sometimes the recorder doesnt stop at 0000 and it continues to rewind. When it does this, the remote doesnt...

Ive never heard of RMGi before and i am going to buy some. Ive been using 1/2" Quantegy 456, can anyone please tell me what the RMGi equivalent is? Thanks

I recently read that Tegan and Sara were recording at the guy from some famous bands home studio. If you havent heard Tegan and Sara you should check it out and give it a chance even though most guys hate music made by twin lesbian sisters. Anyways they posted this pic on their myspace and it...

I was hoping someone could help me with this BS setup im running. Its driving me crazy because all i want to do is play but i spend all my time altely screwing with problems involving the equipment. This is my setup: small bedroom, 8 foot ceiling, carpeted, ive got two mattresses against the...

Does anyone have a um57 out there? What does it sound like?
