Hey Guys....been busy! I did check back to see what you thought of my idea of replacing some of the inter-connects, but by that time I'd figured out that really that's a job for another day. What prompted this idea though, still remains. It seems every time I disconnect the Master Panel to...

I was just looking at some stuff on You Tube and forgot that I must have seen this video almost a year ago (check my comment about a Tascam M3500). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXXK60BzzxQ#t=220.257515 But near the end, check out a 40-track 2" machine??? Al

Hi Guys, Well after a 500 mile round trip to the beautiful city of Edinburgh, I've come back home with a Tascam M3500. I went to see one last year which was only about 50 miles away from where I live, but that desk had been abused too much to get me parting with my money. This one, which I...

I have a weird problem with a Fostex D2424LV MKII that I recently bought from Ebay. When I bought it I noticed slight corrosion on the back panel, so I took the cover off to find corrosion to the metalwork in several places. As the circuit boards were free of corrosion and after the unit passed...

Hi guys, I wondered if anyone ever had a 488 MKII. I picked one up recently and everything works except recording on track 5. It doesn't erase the existing recording on track 5, but on a blank tape, a very faint impression of the source can be recorded and played back. When I say faint, it is...

I bought some 1" Quantegy tape with the following codes on the reel: 456-573111 Barcode 318300420312 2002213 The tape will not REW or FF and leaves a heavy deposit. I thought the tape had a manufacturing date of 2002 (hence the 2002213), but the track sheets inside indicate a recording session...

Hi Guys, I've just finished writing my first musical. I'm in the process of scoring the whole thing and have decided to rationalise my setup. On Monday I heard of the death of a friend's husband at just 56 years of age. I knew he'd been ill (I thought he just had a rash, turns out he had...

I'd been following this Ebay sale: Tascam 388 Tape Recorder. Local Pick Up Only , Wembley , London. | eBay I was quite shocked to see 'Reserve not met' at £750 :eek: Surely someone's about to pay over the odds for that machine? Al

Just been reading a real early posting from Cory and Ethan.... https://homerecording.com/bbs/general-discussions/analog-recording-mixing-tape-gear/tascam-58-ob-story-262192 This shows how far Cory has come....my hat tips to you Sir. It also shows how others here offer their experience and...

I'm calibrating two TASCAM MSR16 machines. I've already ascertained that these two machines have different 'inception dates' (yeh, been watching too many 'Bladerunner re-runs) as observed in their different audio cards. For those that don't know the machine, one quirk is that there is no...

I've just taken receipt of what I thought was going to be a brand new head for a TASCAM MSR24. It turns out that it is in fact a 2" head (probably for the ATR80-24 as I don't know of any other 2" TASCAM machine). The part number is 53783073. The legending says : TEAC, 24TR 24CH REC/REPRO...

So my MRL tape arrived from over the pond in order to setup the two MSR16 I own. I decided to bite the bullet and buy the MRL as neither machine matched each other when making recordings and playing back on the differnt machine. I suspect one had been used with possibly a +9 formulation...

I think if 5000 of you all chip in £1 each, then this recorder which is for sale round the corner from where I live, could be mine! Vintage TASCAM ATR60 – 16T 16 Track 1â€￾ Analogue Multi-track Tape Recorder | eBay Cheers Al

I've read the manual and other posts here that warn about using both XLR and RCA input jacks at the same time. I can see by the schematic that the XLR inputs come before the RCA inputs, but that they then are fed into the same circuitry, so you wouldn't want to use both at the same time for risk...

I'm looking to get a finer tipped soldering iron for working on the TASCAM MS-16 audio cards (man they're small). Can anyone recommend a suitable iron...I'm in the UK. Thanks Al
