500 posts Ive personally found the best way to get alot of posts is to buy a bunch of reel to reels in questionable condition.

connectors Dont worry man, im going to read, reread, and reread as well as watch the video many times before i do anything. It seems fairly simple as long as you pay attention, but i will still be overly cautious. Thank you.

Wow Massive weight starting to lift off my chest, man... thank you.

har har Hey if you are looking for girls to come get their pictures taken at the drop of a hat you could always try modelmayhem.com. A friend of mine was a photographer there for awhile and the chicks just line right up. You gotta deal with youth and beauty though, which for some reason almost...

Also I dont know the exact make and model, but its an old Yamaha console organ made for children. I suspect it was made in the 70s because the guts are similar to a Farfisa Compact, but the sound is much cleaner. Its not a great organ in the traditional sense, but it makes a few sounds that...

reverb I bought a Fostex 3180 in really good condition. It even has the rack ears on it. I took a look inside, its clean as can be. The thing works fine, its just not "cheap" enough sounding. The Fostex is smooth and pretty professional, but thats just not what im looking for in a spring. Im...

springs Well, right now the thing is in a console style organ. And the two wires run from the organ to either ends of the reverb device which includes the entire mechanism, not just the springs. What ill have to do is remove it from the organ and cut the two wires and just figure out which is...

Ah Ah, screw it. I think im just going to rip the thing out of the organ and try to make it work. I need to just get it over with.

difficult Its hard to give advice of any kind for too many reasons to count, to anyone for any reason/situation. You never know what it is like to walk in their shoes and that makes it impossible to know how theyll feel when the reality of the decisions that come with the advice come to be...

I guess this could be in the DIY section or the effects section, but i figure its analog and many people here are technical so id rather have it here. I have a spring reverb that came from an organ. There are no rcas just a grey wire and a white wire hooked to either side which im guessing is...

Another thing I remember when i went from cassette to a 38... it was nice. Its not easy to tell right away whats so great about 1/2" tape recorder when you just record like an acoustic guitar or something by itself. But once you add the bass, drums, piano etc... it starts to sound really huge...

songs First, let me say that any machine no matter how guaranteed can and will need something at some point maintenance-wise. Even the one you are getting that isnt missing any parts might still be a fixer upper any day and without warning. That being said though, id go with the one thats not...

analog If you dig 60s analog sounding recordings that are actually modern day, check this band out. This guy played all the instruments himself on an 80-8 with noise reduction and a boss digital delay. Sounds vintagey but its actually from around the late 90s i think...

mix If i understand correctly, you just need an interface that has 4 inputs right? Something like a Presonus Firebox, but im not sure how many inputs that one has. Also, if you need a decent audio program, use REAPER man. Its free, you can make it look however you want, and you can fully...

sure Yeah i figured id send them back to you after i used them, that way they retain their usefullness. By the way, if anyone had wondered, the name "The Great Cobb" refers to a character from the Ren and Stimpy show named "Wilbur Cobb". Hes this massive old man who's body falls apart as he...

sweetbeats I used to think you were amazing when you were going all out to fix all your equipment... but to go all out to fix someone elses is a complete and total mindblow on a whole other level. I appreciate it, and im going to owe you a big one. Im half tempted to snap off my Tascam M30...

La-40 Those LA-40s not only look cool but also seem really useful.

echo One thing that i have noticed, at least as far as what ive seen and heard, is that there is a different tone and sound quality to tape echo created using multiple recorders rather than a dedicated multi head effect like a Roland Space Echo. Im not a wizard of tape echos or anything, but i...

thanks You have no idea how much this is going to help me. THANK YOU!

breaking it out Since there isnt a whole lot i can do with the 388 at the moment, and i finally got a little time off work, i decided to really take a look at what is going on with this 44. I am convinced that it doesnt take the same remote as the 30 series. It may possibly, but i have recently...
