Looks good, Ghost. I haven't perused these forums much in the last few years. I must say it is good to hear your (always) words of wisdom. Regarding the 106, looks like it would fit the bill. I even like the dual VU meters. I'm gonna research it and see what I can find (and find for sale). Any...

Howdy. I sold my beloved 246 a few years back but have since picked up a "near ZERO hours" and MINT condition 134b rackmount cassette 4 track. What a solid unit! Anyway,..I have a lead on a Tascam PE-40 Parametric EQ...looks like a fantastic vintage unit. Although I'd surely use the PE40 for...

More images here: Tascam DP32 at Tascam Japan To be honest I'm not sure I get the point. There appear to be no differences between the DP32 and the DP24 other than the fact that 8 tracks have been added. There are less MONO tracks now: 8 mono and 12 stereo. They squeezed in an extra 2 faders...

The HGR2488 is a really nicely thought out addition to anyone's 2488. I hope the HGR folks will consider a version for the DP24 as well. Unfortunately (like david42 and ardstudio) I cannot access the HGR website either. I used to be able to (visit the site) without issue. For the last month (or...

There is a company in the UK that makes a product to enable the 2488 (all versions) to hook up an external monitor while maintaining a functioning onboard LCD screen as well: HGR-2488 I emailed them a month (or so ago) when I first heard about the DP24. They said they would certainly entertain...

Hey cwhowell2! Glad to hear the DP24 is working out for you. Reviews on the unit have been pretty hard to find. I love the look of the unit but am most concerned about the transferring of tracks to a computer (and back). The old 2488 made that process fairly time consuming. Do you have to send...

Howdy gang. As I was dusting and cleaning my lovely Tascam 134b the other day I decided it was time (before it's too late) to stock up on some High Bias cassettes. They're starting to get a bit harder to find (especially the 60 minutes or less variety). What is the general consensus on quality...

'preciate the response, Reel. i agree,..it's an impressive deck. i like the front panel inputs and the "238-ish" transport. hmmmmmm. "el destino".... i feel that i am a future "Tascam 134b" owner. we'll see. cheers. :)

i was sorting through some old product literature in my closet yesterday and came across a tattered (but adored) Tascam "Multitrack Cassette" product brochure. featured on the page opposite the 238 was the 134b. i have never seen a 134b in person. i have never seen a 134b for sale (OR on eBay)...

the Tascam 246 comes to mind first. it has a VERY flexible (and wonderful sounding) mixer and is solidly built (beautiful meters as well!). i've owned a few cassette 4-tracks and the 246 is LEAPS AND BOUNDS better than anything i've ever used (both sonically and in versatility of use). good...

thanks for the responses, gang. i'm considering a 388 also, but lack of physical studio space (i.e. spare bedroom) is a MAJOR concern. i could tuck the R8 practically anywhere and keep the remote near my mixer. it might be worth a shot (provided that i find one in excellent condition). thanks...

howdy gang. for some reason the R8 is "calling me". 1/4" tape and a detachable remote. hmmmmmmmmmm. might be fun. i occasionally stumble across these (sometimes in EXCELLENT condition).is this recorder worth a look?? i primarily prefer Tascam gear but Fostex stuff is a close second. i see these...

check me if i'm wrong,..but i don't believe that the "TASCAMFORUMS" is sponsored by Tascam. i believe it is run by independent Tascam enthusiasts. STILL, it looks like a nice place to establish some new "digs". cheers.

also remember the 2488 has DUAL external AUX sends. thus you could incorporate TWO "mono" processors, TWO "mono in/stereo out" processors..or ONE "true stereo" processor at mixdown. that's some nice added flexibility (although,...of course,..you have to OWN some external processors). a device...

good for you, jaeden!! keep us updated on your progress with the 2488. there are quite a few folks interested in some opinions on the recorder. cheers and happy tracking!!:D oh,...there's also a discussion group on the 2488 (and other Tascam products) at: http://www.tascamforums.com/ you'll...

i don't think anyone's actually seen it "in person" yet. there's been quite a bit of chatter at various boards across the web about it though. it looks nice (what with 24 SEPERATE faders and ALL those knobs). you'd still need the computer interface for yer ins and outs, though (AS WELL as...

i lucked into a "time capsule" MINT 246 fairly recently. i've owned several Fostex and Tascam cassette multitracks and the 246 is in a league OF IT'S OWN (both sonically and functionally). it is one of the most impressive pieces i've ever purchased and i plan to use it EXCLUSIVELY for several...

phillyboyd and (the soon to appear in a major motion picture) Green Hornet, i've been demo-ing the 2488 recently. it appears to be almost identical (in philosophy AND build) to the 788. both recorders are capable of 24-bit 44.1 khz recordings. HOWEVER,........the 2488 sounded "cleaner" to...

the price on the D2424LV is certainly "appealing" at the moment. a friend of mine SWEARS that the ORIGINAL D2424 is a "bettter" recorder, however (due to more precise A/D converters). has anyone else heard of this claim?? just wondering.

Re: hmmm well, automation really isn't a necessary inclusion on ANY recorder, but it basically provides an extra set of "invisible hands" when you are mixing down your tracks. if both hands are "riding the faders" you could let "automation" switch effects on different tracks, or apply...
