Hey! I'm in Charlotte, NC. Thanks for offering but local Tascam guru, @sweetbeats, has talked me into finding a tape machine to use with my M308B mixer. That is a great looking 388 though :love:

It looks NOS but the original owner did use it. He showed me a polaroid of his old home studio. He still had all the boxes for the outboard gear too.

All from the original owner except for the MX-80 😁 Special thanks to @sweetbeats for helping me sort some of this out

Exactly! Just looking to try something new (old) 😁

I'm already running a M2 Max Mac Studio running Pro Tools, Logic and Luna. My interface is a UAD Apollo. I've been working in the box almost 20 years now. So that parts cover LOL

I’ve thought about getting a 238 because it would basically be like my old 4 track but on steroids 😁

Thanks for the reply and I appreciate the insight.

Well I’m 43 and the only real tape experience I have was when I interned at a studio after high school. They were still in between tape and Pro Tools. I had a Porta studio 4 track at home. I don’t know a great deal about electronics but understand certain concepts. I feel I work better and more...

Parts seem in short supply or are crazy expensive. Also the machine itself isn’t getting any cheaper. I have an M308B and I thought about just getting a 38, TSR8 or even a 238 but 1/2” tape is expensive compared to 1/4.” The idea of everything being in one unit is nice. I’d love to get into tape...

Ok. Gotcha. Can you recommend an external phantom power supply? Thank you

Long time reader and first time poster here. I have recently acquired an MX-80 and it has had the phantom power input jack mod to 3 prong XLR. Unfortunately it did not come with any RCA jumpers. @sweetbeats do you know of a place I could buy some in the original style? Thank you!
