If you haven't found some adapters yet, PM me I have some.

Your description sounds like either Modulation Noise- slang "bias rocks", misaligned recorders or a failiure to understand gain staging/recording levels. Making up terms like "infected" just confuses the reader. Re: your Beastie Boys example: They used a Tascam ATR-80/24. I know because I was...

There were two cables. PW-88M, (Master), and PW-88S, (Slave).

I have my trusty Tascam ES-50 SMPTE TC synchronizer with the rare ES-51 remote up for sale. I have both owner's and service manuals and cabling. $500 OBO plus shipping.

A little knowledge is dangerous.

Hello, I don't know if you got my message. I have a complete new Tascam OEM combined Operation/Maintenance manual for the M512/520 in the original black binder that came with the mixer when it was sold new. Operation manual along with the Service section with large foldout schematics on heavy...

The ES-50 has a "learn" function which would require the Master- if the OP is locked into using the DAW as the Master- to receive and generate both TC and Tach pulses to complete the "learn" function. You can trick the ES-50 to run the setup if you loop the TC out to Master in on the ES-50...

I will always regret selling my Tascam 388- and my Tascam DM-4800 mixer,Tascam X-48, Moog Taurus pedals, ARP 2600, and 1969 Datsun 2000 roadster- but I re-bought the MXR Pitch Transposer and Systech voltage controlled flanger after hearing old band tapes from the 70s' where they were used on my...

Easiest would be to record SMPTE to the 1" and send TC to the computer. Cubase chases the 1". This is called "Code only master." Tach pulses are too inaccurate to use for chasing. They were originally used to lock audio to video film projectors.

If the switch works- you can easily verify that with a VOM- do a visual inspection of the circuit board and see if you can see any cracks that may have damaged a trace. Follow the traces from the switch.

You probably have a cracked PCB which opened up some traces.

The 48 uses a separate circuit for the balanced out puts- powered by it's own fused power supply. Don't short 1 and 2 or 1 and three to run unbalanced. You short the output transistor to ground- fuse blows or you take out the transistor.

Make sure you are muting the monitor section when mixing down. The monitor section adds noise to the stereo out.

Tape tensions are too low.

Your fuses started blowing after you resoldered, plugged, and unplugged R.P. cards? Go back over your work looking for solder bridges/ splashes, bent/misaligned pins on the R/P cards, pinched wires shorting to the chassis, screws shorting something to the chassis etc. Very easy to chase down the...

I have a Tascam MSR-16 for sale. It has a new record/playback head, new counter roller, and pinch roller. Complete recalibration and biased for ATR tape. Includes a parts machine and RC-416 remote. Minor cosmetic damage to the top left, but does not affect functionality. $2200 OBO. PM me for...

We moved 1200 miles last year. Four dumpsters, uncounted trips to the recycler- some which I regret. Sold my Howard combo organ,Fender Rhodes, Farfisa combo organ, lots of rack mount stuff. Still have a garage crammed with stuff. I finally broke down yesterday and bought a 10 X 16 shed to put...

Sounds like you have a DC offset in the meter circuit.

"Fixing the line amps" Hmmmm, sounds like doublespeak. Exactly what is the problem you are having? Please be detailed. Unless it's some kind of mechanical part, the parts are commonly available.

Ever since Gibson bought Teac/Tascam in 2013 and laid off their whole Service Dept. in L.A., the two companies that get the farmed out repairs do not have a very good reputation. The man to send R2Rs to is Adrian Pro Audio service in Canoga Park Ca. , or Sam Palermo in Chicago. What model do you...
