I posted this in the recording thread. It was a song I wrote last year......... I was just trying out a machine I got working, but I thought I'd throw it at you and see what you thought. Since I'm all new to this recording thing, I can use all the help I can get!! I'm really interested in...

That one had promise FB, I was getting excited, but it has to fit in one of these.... Which is about 19x14x 6-1/2 (inches). If my inches to mm is right, the Tascam is a little too big. The Fostex A-2 would fit....

I am looking for a small stereo reel to reel. We're traveling around in a trailer, so size is almost more important than sound quality (I know..... I know.... it's messed up). I would like good sound though ...... I've looked at a TC-200A, but not sure if it the best option. Any recommendations...

Well I finally got to pull the 244 apart today Everything was a form of semi-liquid sludge.... The belts, the roller, and the tires!! The one thing that I guess you never realize till you do it, is how this black slime gets on everything!!! My clothes, chairs, dog, and marriage is...

Does anybody have dimensions to a pinch roller. Mine has turned to goo and with the limited availability of em, I either need to find one close or make my own... I have an idea of how to make one I'd like to try....

Well.... I got the eye roll again when another package showed up at the campground. (Hanging out on this forum may not be a good idea financially.....) This one is a Tascam 244. It looks great on the outside, only one little scar. It had a stuck tape in it (uhhh...ohh...). Sure enough...

Thanks for your comments. I have a digitec DL-8 delay pedal. It has a slapback delay.... I'll give that a try. Unfortunately, I don't have a reverb right now. Thank you all for the ideas .... I'll be trying them out a bit in the next week

I have been toying with my delay pedal running it through a track channel. I'd like to get an reverb type (room echo)effect with it. I'm trying for a coffee shop solo guitar guy type of feel. I'll be running it through the Tascam 424 I was interested in y'alls thoughts on this.

I just saw these ..... https://youtu.be/IJ81-TMP4pI And https://youtu.be/CMTpvr9HXeI

:mad:oooooops dual post......

As far as recording a mix down, I just use my <...gasp...> computer sound card mostly.... and an RCA TO 3.5 from the line outs on the Portastudio to the mic plug on the computer..... If I really want to look cool, I pull out the audio interface :)

Hey V.... Sorry to take so long getting back.... I hook up from the effects send to the pedal input. From here, I can do a couple of different things. I go from the pedal output into the line 5-6 mono plug. . This allows me to use the effect pedal for any of the four channels during the mix...

I am looking at buying some Type II tape from National Audio. They offer two types.... Chrome and Cobalt. Do ya'll have one preference over the other? Brad

Traveling around towing everything, you have to make some sacrifices. Mine was my guitar collection.... Since we started living in a RV though, I have slowly gotten into the recording hobby, being a little long in the tooth, I wanted to get into electronic equipment that was close to what I had...

I bought a "for parts " Portastudio 424 and then bought another so I could make two into one. Well the first one came the other day and I fired it up. At first the tape player stopped twice after trying to record for a couple seconds. After that, it worked fine........ Now what am I going to do...

No popcorn needed for this thread :) Because we are on the road and travel in a trailer, we don't have a lot of space for my music hobby. I have one small box for stuff........ One!!!........ I have seen where people have used cordless drills , soldering irons and ac adapters to degauss...

Howdy.... I'm Brad and just bought a couple of Tascam 424s so I can get one to work... They should be here within a week. I farmed for a number of years and am used to fixing up old equipment, so I thought the best transition from fixing tractors would be to fix electronics......;).... We've...
