It's ticking along (weird issue with monitoring channel 2) and it is

BOBBY!!!! Welcome back :D

Is that a 244 on the shelf above the 512? How long have you been recording? I'm not an expert (and I don't play one on TV), but those sound pretty damn close to professional demos.

I can monitor every other buss, which makes it even more puzzling.

No idea. I put a different tape on the deck. There's only MIDI sync code on track 8 so far anyway

It will forever remain a mystery. But I can reveal that a misseated tape reel might have played a large part in this misadventure.

It's only the first five minutes or so. Most of it was uncreased and I managed to get it all back on the reel with only one minor hassle (a knot).

Don't. Ask. :o Before anyone asks, yes I did get it untangled and back on the reel.

I can record to track 2 (I checked, had to use the stereo buss for monitoring) and I can play track 2 back (again, through the stereo buss), but, for some reason, the signal from buss 2 isn't getting to the monitor buss. I guess i can work around it, but it is kind of puzzling. Any ideas?

Nice stuff Renne. Nice to hear some good old fashioned Alt Rock being made by a young person :D

Yeah, it makes sense.

I did, I was assuming you couldn't sync a 15 IPS machine and a 7.5 IPS machine. Which is why I didn't initially mention the 80-8. I forgot there are 4 machines involved here. It's just that three of them are in one location and the fourth (mine) in another. Timeline Micro Lynxes are thin...

JPMorris! Just remembered his user name!

The example in the 388 manual for A/V shows the 388 connected, via an unnamed synchroniser, to both a C-format 1" VTR and a 3/4" U-matic VCR. Since both systems appear to be tape based would it be reasonable to assume that anything that can be used to transmit timecode from a VTR or U-matic...

Just an idea I had for a project I'm planning to work on with Mike and Nick from The Brothers Nylon which would involve syncing an Otari MX5050 8 track and 2 388s (mine and theirs'). Only, now I'm guessing I'd have to stripe a sync code on my tape with the same equipment... So it's probably a...
