Not exactly New York but NJ Factory Service does excellent work. Not sure if Russ works on Fostex as at one time his facillity was the Tascam east coast service center. Hopefully he does. Give them a call. Good Luck ! http://www.njfactoryservice.com/home.html

Welcome to the forum Ani !! :)

Nice Job !!! I like the little brush drag across the head before each accent hit. Nice harmonies and doubles on the vocals too...at least I think I'm hearing some words doubled occasionally. Very Tastefull :)

I love my Tascam MS-16 :)

Hey your stuff sounds good ! I enjoyed listening to your tracks. Regards, Dave

Very Strange I just received the headstack for my MS-16 back from JRF and it looks beautiful. Years ago he did the record/play on my MSR-16 as well and that was beautiful. Anytime I have spoken with Mr.French on the phone he has been very friendly and willing to answer all my questions...

Ausrock and Dano, Thanks for responding :) It's just strange that the manual doesn't show it, even in the exploded parts listing there's nothing shown going into that hole. Dano I know what you mean....those diagrams give me a headache just looking at them. Well i scored a spare head...

Thanks eveyone for all the responses this is a wonderful forum :) Sweet, Yes a call to Teac will hopefully solve the question. I'll definitly let eveyone know what they say. Regards, Dave ps. Mastercontrolme, Prices are falling all the time :)

Ethan, My machine doesn't have the post ? The hole is there (threaded) but that's all. All the pictures in my original maintenance manual do not show the post, only a hole. The main picture showing a diagram of the tape path and how the tape is suppose to ride on the guides doesn't show it...

Sweet, Yeah you have to watch out for those synonym's :) Godd idea about Dano and Ethan. Hopefully they will chime in. I just checked my manual again and there's definitly no sign of that post in any of the pictures. Just an empty hole !! I dont know the exact year of my machine. I do have...

Talldog, Thanks for responding. Wow my MS-16 head stack does not have that post ?? There's a threaded hole in that position where something could be screwed in but It's not shown in my maintenance manual either. All the pictures of the head stack just show an empty hole ?? Weird huh ...

Sweet, How goes it ? Well I am the original owner of a 112 :) The 112 is a two head deack vs the 122 is a three head machine. I believe the Mark II, III, whatever were just updates (minor changes). Very good machines. I have had mine for nearly 20 years. Just recently had to replace the...

Hello Everyone, Came across an MS-16 on ebay. Something doesn't look right to me on the attached pic of the headstack. Notice the shaft between the left most tape guide and the left lifter. I might be loosing it but I dont think my MS-16 has that shaft ?? From left on my machine I have the...

superbeatballer, Glad the transaction went smooth for you. The guy I sold it to came to my house to pick it up. He seemed very nice so I believe he would go the extra mile with good packing to make sure the deck arrived safely. Regards, Dave

Superbeatballer, Wow you have my old msr-16 ? Are you in Pa. I can't remember the name of the fellow I sold it to but I believe he only had it for about a year before he sold it. Glad your enjoying it :) Regards, Dave

nate_dennis, I would also like to chime in and cast a positive vote for the MSR-16. Bought mine 2nd hand and used it for years with excellent results. Click on the link below to listen to a song I recorded with it. If you can find one in good condition I'm sure you will enjoy it. Good Luck...

sweet, Glad to hear things worked out better :) Always remember to make every session fun if you can. Your clients will love you for it and in the future when you think back to an old session you'll be smiling !! Yes it's funny how most folks love that sea of reverb in the cans :)...

Sweet, You can also DIY some baffles. Here's a couple of links to what I built. I have six panels that I can move around. Put them around the drums, stick a couple around a guitar amp, raise a few to their high posistion and make a little vocal booth. They really work well. A guy at my local...

Sweet, Pardon me for hijacking your thread for a moment while I respond to cjacek.I know you won't mind :) Cjacek, Ok lets say your the vocalist.....how about rehearsing with the song in your control room, listening to your monitors. Get a feel for the dynamics of the song as you sing...

Sweet, Lots of good suggestions so far :) In regard to the cue mix...especially if the vocalist is inexperienced. Try and find a level they are most comfortable at. You can ask her if she would like to hear more or less of her voice as well as more or less of the instruments but being...
