So, this is weird. I feel like I've been this route before. Remember when I lost output on several channels of my 48, and a relay replacement brought them all back to life? Now, one of the channel cards has no output, either unbalanced or balanced. It follows the card when I move it around...

I'm going to realign my mixdown deck for a different operating level. It's set up for NAB equalization right now and I'm interested in changing it to IEC EQ for a couple of reasons. The question is, is 15ips w/ IEC EQ a common enough format among the mastering studios which accept 1/4" tape...

Hey analoggers, I'm selling two 2" reels of RMGI SM900. Check out my post in the "For Sale" forum: Link Thanks for looking :)

I'm selling two brand new, unused reels of RMGI SM900, 2" x 2500'. These have been properly taken care of in my home in San Francisco. I'm selling them for $200 each. PM for more info. Thanks! Jeffrey

I'm kinda bummed out. I set up my multitrack deck for (PEM/SM)468 and now that I need to buy more tape, I'm finding that nearly all of the online retail outlets for RMGI products aren't carrying 468 any longer. For example, I contacted US Recording Media and they said that 468 never sold well...

Hey, anybody here have experience with both? What did you think? I love ATR tape but I've never used SM900.

Hey folks, Some time ago, I plugged the wrong power supply into my Boss TR-2 tremelo pedal. It made a bad smell (i.e. burning) and then stopped working. It now won't work with a 9v battery. It's broken. Does anyone have any idea about fixing this? None of the semiconductors on the circuit...

Hey friends, I need a new cartridge and my budget is $125 max. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm not going to do any wicked scratching or weird turntable feats, just listening :)

OK, how about this one: Again, I sometimes feel the need to add more tracks to my setup. I was thinking about using my MTS1000 to sync up my Tascam 48-OB with... drumroll please.. a Syncaset 238? I was thinking that I could use the 238 for less fidelity-critical tracks... track things on to...

I feel like a total boob... I began my mixer-cleaning project after getting kinda buzzed on Friday night and I knocked one of my monitors over, which snapped the volume control pot shaft: So, I'm gonna figure out how to replace the volume pot. Stay tuned!

Hey tape fiends, I'm trying to find 1/2" RMGI SM468 in pancakes. It's hard enough to find 1/2" SM468 as it is, so does anyone know where I can find it on a hub??? Thanks!

Hey folks, I'm looking into refurbing my M520 and I'm curious to know about upgrade options, specifically for the EQ sections of the channel strips. Does anyone here know of any modifications / upgrades to the EQ to make it a) quieter b) more precise, or c) just generally 'better' in some way...

There's no criteria here... I'm just curious to know how the readers here would compare the two machines. Have experiences with both? Please tell!! I haven't been making much music lately... taking care of other things in life. Just thought I'd throw in this little question and say Hi to my...

OK, This will hopefully be the last time I promote my goods on Home Recording: 1. Two 2" reels of RMGI SM900 2. Two Ruby Tubes 12AT7 tubes, brand new 3. Pair of MXL 604 small diaphragm condenser microphones 4. Four dbx 150x noise reduction units, eight channels total 5. Four RCA-TS HOSA snakes...

Hey folks, I'm helping a friend sell some tape. On offer are two 2", 2500' reels of RMGI SM900. Brand new, never used, never unspooled, even. PM me an offer if you're interested. Thanks!! J

Hey folks, The Tascam M-520 doesn't have dedicated main mix inserts as far as I know. I'm curious, though, if anyone has a clever workaround for this, say if I wanted to add a compressor to the mix buss. This would be instead of just grouping everything into two groups and then applying...

Hey folks, I just wrapped up an intensive project, the first of its kind where I really went all out and did a ton of overdubs and bounces. I think there's around 28 total source tracks, all bounced down for the final mix. For reference, here it is. It's my interpretation of the Allen Ginsberg...

Hey strangers, it's been a long time since I wrote here! I still keep tabs and I'm glad to see everyone's doing well. I recently aligned my Tascam 48 for BASF PEM468, with 0VU @ 355 nW/m (0VU is +6 over 185). Previously it was aligned for 0VU @ 250 nW/m. It suits the music I'm working on...

Hey folks, Just because I like to read about tape machines, I've been wondering how I might use a half-inch four track open reel recorder. The only things I've come up with are: 1. Bouncing two separate stereo mixes for more flexibility in final mixdown 2. Tape echo applications 3. ... ? How...

Hey folks, We here at Analog Only (TM) like to talk about the 'correct' way of doing things. We also strive to learn the best techniques for tracking, mixing, effects, etc. But what about doing things the "wrong way" for fun, or to get a particular effect? Last night, I put a reel of SM911 on...
