Well..... time to get to the nitty gritty on this mobile project, but first an early morning side project while waiting for parts. First was to attach a power strip to the floor of the rack. We will be moving it every time we move, so I want to be sure we don't pinch cords and things. Now onto...

.....and I can't figure out what it is, or where it goes.... Any ideas??

Both you and my wife seem to have caught on to my shenanigans........ :) She also noticed (in a less friendly tone I might add) the studio growing. That however was the dry run. Here we are more to the finished project: It's my studio rack, bedside table!! Here it is opened up a bit...

Well...... RFR got me to thinking and I think I can lower my studio footprint and get myself a better quality system. Here's what I've got..... Well, The M-08 pots were a bit scratchy, so I took it apart and sprayed all the pots.... I must of done it wrong, or they are unfixible..... These...

.... I know you aren't a EE student, but this may apply here......

My wife took a pic while I was doing some recording..... my biggest challenge is not kicking the litter box when I'm getting into the song..... What does y'alls setup look like?

I think right now I would like something like a Carvin 1688 mixer Tascam MS16 Tape player Compressor Reverb Good monitors, mics Tangle free cables All in this: Being pulled around with this

Alright..... Lots of repair stuff here lately...... Let's have a little fun..... What is your ultimate analog setup.... Money is no issue.... Mine would be a 4 channel setup because I only record for myself.... since 4 channels are cheap, I'm also practical...... :) What is your lottery...

I an trying to wrap my mind around a couple of things in the Tascam manual. One of them is an "H level" and an "L level" signal. Is this something you can measure with a multimeter? J604 and J605 are calling me..... As always... thanks, Brad

I'm starting to troubleshoot the 244 and wanted to make sure I'm doing it right. I'm using a test tone and it says to attach the hot meter lead to the pin and measure voltage. I'm just making sure the ground meter lead goes to chassis ground. Thanks, Brad

.....what????..... no eye roll????.... :) . I'm going to have to sell it... Y'all have got me thinking of this mini rack system thing.... So much so, I've just bought this I have to use something to fund it... (I'll probably keep it until I can find a tape player). This hobby can get...

Even though I have issues to deal with, Tascam's 244 is pretty cool to me. The rack mounted 234 is even better (since people here have gotten me to think about a small rack system). My only problem is the tapes speed. I enjoy doing online 4 track collaborations, where people record a track onto...

Here's what I was able to do. This is my test tone This is how I had the 244 set up. (If it's upside down, please click on the picture) . I'm pretty new to this, so If the setup is why ch 1&3 are quiet, let me know. What I ended up doing was moving the tone to different input jacks, then...

I thought I'd mention this for people buying parts online. I bought a drive belt and idler tires for a Tascam 244 who's belts and tires were goo.... The belt kept slipping off after I installed it, and the tires made an awful noise. Well, on the advice of people here I went to Teac and ordered...

Alright..... Y'all have got me burning up the Internet on this rack thing. I have found something called a IKEA Rast that people have converted into a rack. It would fit the footprint of what I need. Imagine it turned upside down so the mixing board would fit on top. A tape player mounted in...

.......Well I'm not out of the woods yet on this Tascam 244. Testing out the unit, I get sound into the headphones, and the channel 1 overload led works, but there is no movement with the VU meter (the meter does light up). I don't have a 244 schematic but I do have a 246. Unfortunately, the...

I am looking for help. I now have two working portastudios here in the travel trailer. One (the 244), looks cool, sounds good, and is a little too big for the plastic storage bin where I keep it (and it weighs a ton....). The other (the 424), looks like a toy, sounds good, fits in the storage...

I record my bass and drum track off a computer or iPad ... Because of syncing to the tape, I record both onto one channel of the tape and put my guitar and voice on two others. Doing this, I can't edit the bass and drum separately, but I was wondering if this might work.... Buy one of these...

I was fiddling around with my other 244 yesterday replacing the belts and tires. I buttoned it all up and pushed play and the thing moved for a second then stopped. Well..... I took it all apart, and the new capstan belt that I got off ebay keeps coming off the motor pulley.... within half a...

Maybe I can help you on this.... Here is a pic of one I redid... I was really careful to matchup the pin and bracket to how I had took them apart. This one is below flush with the brackets This photo is from one that I need to do (it's sticking up) This one is above (I know these are...
