Erock....Thanks for chiming in. Here are a few snapshots from the manual which may help locate the necessary trim pots (thats what they are .called). R112 adjusts the left hand tension arm. R212 adjusts the right hand tension arm. Before you adjust ANYTHING>>>>>> if you can 1) use a PLASTIC...

Sorry I dont have access to my manual right now. I did cover this is a previous thread, so you could find it with a sarch on the forum. I will try to get back with you soon on this adjustment

Now all I need is a schematic on the 112 .......not the MK models, just a plain ol' 112. Anyone??

Shedshine: Good info!!! I have inquired in the past about a speed issue on my Tascam 112 cassette deck, and never gotten any info. It runs maybe 10% fast, but if I turn on the Varispeed, it spools up like crazy. Is this possibly the same sort of circuitry issue??

The slow rewind on the 388 might be a simple servo adjustment. On either side of the headstack is a movable roller that works as part of the tape tensioning system. These are servo linked and work to control the reel motor speed in all modes. Try this: with the 388 in rewind, GENTLY push the...

Followup: The guys gunning the sale said they were going to have a few local companies come in to make a bid on the remainders. I would expect to see the residue of this sale in either one of the local surplus outlets, or scattered on C-List and E-Bay. As of sale close there were still several...

OK, so I spent probably eight hours there across the three days the sale was open. That said, I did NOT see everything. This is about a 4000 sf house plus garage and driveway, and the place was PACKED with stuff. A bit of backstory from the people running the place and he neighbors. The guy...

Yeah, I probably wont buy another thing, but its fun to browse. >>> I'll bet a lot of this stuff is left on Sunday night

Probably a s***load of snakes and cables.....I did not dig real deep..I was too lightheaded.

I was not kidding about the shower....,

Just opened up the morning and runs all weekend. I expect i will be going back na few times to see the discounts. I want that M-520 and a pair of the Klipsch speakers.. I DID buy a lifetime supply of eight packs of Maxell type II cassettes. a buck for each sealed eight pack. Had to make two...

And believe me, this is nothing!!!!!! We are all amateur gear sluts. This guys was the KING

Almost forgot these

and this isnt the half of it

and more pic

Now pics. I am not good at this so there may be a few posts

I will load pics in a minute (i always have trouble with this) but just went to an estate sale in Dallas I saw on C-List. UNBELIEVEABLE!!! Dozens of mixers, 4. 8, 16 track reel machines, processing gear, racks, speakers, mics, stand, tape, vcrs...the whole friggin house is packed. There is stuff...

This thing is local for me and I have a pickup truck, so I would not have a problem getting it. The description alone keeps me from wasting my time. Lotsa pictures, but no money shot (the heads). Be cool to sit inthe corner and look at, but thats about it. I'd take it for fify bucks tops

I just do not like the thought of moisture or humidity as a long term venue for any electronics ( and your drums, for that matter). I hope that "something in the air" is not hidden mold or mildew hiding under carpet or sheetrock. It could be as unhealthy for the musician as for the equipment...

Since you brought up quad video, it reminded me of yet another drive mechanism. I recalled that a video processor in Chicage I worked for one college summer used these HUGE Ampex 2" quad machines, and those head rotated at a ridiculous high speed...on compressed air! Used air motors. I have no...
