    TASCAM M-520 w/TASCAM 80-8

    I'll have more time this weekend. My studio is also my office. After 12 hours in the office, a 90 degree turn to the left to fire up the studio is tough sometimes. I'm slowly seeing how this works. I have elec. guitar coming through Chan. 1. I want to put that on Track 4. For the purposes of the...

    TASCAM M-520

    I have the guitar plugged in the INS in. on Ch. 1, Mic Att - 0, Phase - Norm, below that, AUX 1/2 and AUX 3/4 is where I get confused. They seem to do with how I'm hearing it through the Monitor buttons. EQ I understand. The assign switches are familiar from the 388. If I want to record this...

    TASCAM M-520

    I guess what I mean by "hearing it from several places" , I'm hearing what I recorded through the monitor section. I'm confused by so many "busses", is probably the main issue. I am finally hearing an electric guitar through channel one and the fader and EQ is responding... I think I need to...

    TASCAM M-520

    I got an electric guitar plugged into Channel 1. I'm hearing it. From several places. I got it so the fader and EQ is working. The pan isn't working yet and I don't see any needle but I'm slowly getting something. I need to see that needle on the tape machine. It's not sending to Ch. 1 on the...

    TASCAM M-520

    I used the Fostex because I know how to use it and I wanted to at least get music on the tape machine. Then, switch back to the 520 and get it to at least play back. And then figure it out from there.

    TASCAM M-520

    Got it. Yes, the jumpers are all in place. Right now I have music I recorded with a little Fostex on Tracks 8, 7, 6, 5, and 4 playing back off the 80-8 through the 520. I did the “RECOMMENDED 8 TRACK BASIC PATCH” shown on 36 of the actual original M-512/M-520 Operation/Maintenance manual that...

    TASCAM M-520

    Yeah. I got busy. I used a Fostex 350 to get music on tape, which worked. Now I have the 80-8 hooked up to the M-520 Tape inputs and it's playing music. So I have that at least. Now I hooking up the outs from the mixer to the 80-8 and I'm going to try to get some signal out of it onto tape. This...

    TASCAM M-520 w/TASCAM 80-8

    Thanks for all the advice with my 80-8/M-520 setup. I used another mixer to record 8 tracks of music onto the tape so I could them play it back through the M-520 and at least have playback to start figure things out. I'm slowly learning. This is way more board than I need. I just need an 8 track...

    TASCAM M-520

    I could try the program inputs. This isn’t my first board. I think something is wrong. I’ve never plugged into a mixer and that, plugged into a tape machine, and not had it work unless something is broken or I don’t know how to read . I think it’s busted.

    TASCAM M-520

    I not getting anything on the 80-8 meters or the board. The trim O/L light flickers when I tap the sm57. I’m plugged into the XLRs using MIC input. I tried a drum machine into the rca and phono inputs. Nothing. All channels do the same thing. No indication that anything is working other than...

    TASCAM M-520

    I followed the manual for the Standard Eight Track Patch and ... nothing but a little in the headphones and the mic pre O/L light goes off. I have a 57 direct into mixer. Direct out to TASCAM 80-8. Line out of machine to deck to Tape In. No Meters on machine. I have no idea how the meter bridge...

    TASCAM M-520

    I'm having trouble getting started with this very clean, working (on cellphone camera with an MS-16, at least...) TASCAM M-520. I have a TASCAM 80-8 1/2" Eight Track. I know the machine works because I've already recorded onto it with another mixer. I have a 57 straight into channel 1, direct...

    Local TASCAM M-512 bargain, is recapping unavoidable?

    That's some of the best perspective I've come across. After not doing any recording for quite a while, I got one of the new TASCAM Model 12 machines with the SD Card recorder. Looked like something digital that I could relate to. I work on the computer all day. I don't relate music and computers...

    Wanted: Audio-Technica RMX64

    Looking to buy a decent, possibly refurbished AT RMX-64. If it's within 100 miles of Providence, RI I would be willing to pickup due to the fact that it weighs about 50 pounds so shipping would probably cost as much or more than gas plus it would eliminate the hassle of packing it and getting it...
