Yeah, that’s definitely worth a try, thanks!

Right, that’s how I’ve been going about it I’ll definitely try that next time and see if that corrects the issue So if I wanted things panned other than hard right and left, and wanted to mix in the box, I would record into the computer with the 388 knobs panned just as it was recorded, the...

I’m using the PGM buss outs. On the fostex, I’m using the out RCA jacks straight into my interface

That actually makes a ton of sense. I will typically pan them both to center before importing them, thinking that made sense ?. So, you’re saying that if track 1 on the 388 is panned left; I should keep it panned left when recording into digital, then also pan the track in my DAW (Reaper) also...

Ah that makes sense. As far as settings, are you referring to 44.1k and 24 bit?

I have a Tascam 388, a Marantz cassette 4-track and a Fostex model 80 that I use with a Tascam M520. When I record to tape on any of these sources, I love the sound quality. Its 3 dimensional and sounds exactly like I want. However, on occasion when I route the the recorded material into my...

Thannks again! One more question if I may, in a pinch, is it ok to use 91%? For instance, Im doing a session today and realized I cant find my 99% alcohol after I "reorganized."

Thanks for the reply. Do you think this would work? Just a little cheaper by the oz. if isopropyl is ok to use...

Thanks!!

Hi, Ive previously cleaned the heads with 99% isopropyl alcohol but my repair guy said not to do this, but didn't offer another option. Does anyone have anything specific ie a link or a brand name of something you prefer to clean tape heads with? Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, very helpful! I'll listen back and see if I can make some adjustments

Im on the fence about this and wanted to get other opinions, does this song need further de-essing? Thanks! 40 Degrees-mix 1 | The Mighty Lonelys

Thanks! I think next time we'll do more rehearsing, but for this album I really wanted to see what we could get in the moment. It was a whole lot of fun to record

Here is a song my band and I recorded the base tracks Live (acoustic, drums, lead guitar and bass) into a Tascam M520 routed into a Tascam 388. This was only the second time we'd gotten together to play it so the transitions aren't 100% perfect (nor is the song for that matter) but I liked the...

Im fairly new to trying to master, is it always necessary to normalize. Hopefully thats not too dumb of a question :)
