NICE pics from everyone! Gerard, the drawings will come in handy when I get to my project. Nothing like some dimensions to work with. Nice drafting work. I have a ("analog", of course) Vemco drafting machine and draw everything I build, so I appreciate your efforts here. Technoplayer, the...

If it's not much trouble, I'd like to see some pics. I'm thinking of doing the same thing with my Tascam 106 mixer, angling it more, so anything you did would give me some ideas. I like the way a deck sits in the slightly sloped one in a previous post. I can put what few rack stuff right...

Gerard, I'm a long-time woodworker and I LOVE what you did. Totally inspired to copy you! The black and stain is a nice touch. Gotta get off my new mower and get into the shop. Please post any pics you got on this work.

Cool, more good ideas for a cabinet. I like the ebay ones because it suggests a workable angle. After I finish my bass traps, I'm gettin' started on the Rack. I know, I said this before, but I have a new toy that's got my attention - a killer commercial-grade zero-turn mower! It's like I have...

Really sweet ideas and work. This is what I'm looking for. I don't want to re-invent the "reel" here and it's good to see some ideas. I also don't want to spend an eternity on creating a masterpiece only to have it not quite user-friendly. Nice idea on modifying a straight cabinet, M1Fanatic...

A breakthru in simplicity! Damn, and I sold my chair that would have worked. I guess I;ll have to go back to my uber-complicated custom oak cabinet. LOve you 8 track machines. I can only dream.

I'm setting up my studio and want to custom make a cabinet rack for my TEAC 3440S. I am a woodworker with a full shop and lots of materials and also do metalworking. I'm thinking of slanting it upwards towards me as I sit and it will also be better when I'm standing and playing. I want to make...

Thanks, this will get me started with some more learning until I can upgrade to better equipment... if that day ever comes. Yes, I realize it's not parametric, but the way I wrote it suggested that. And thanks for the technical description of what it is - "fixed band..." etc. I'm learning...

I have a nice old analog Pioneer 9500 graphic equalizer that I would like to use to my advantage. My TASCAM 106 mixer has only two EQ knobs and I've been reading a lot about EQing and would love to have parametric capabilities. I would like to know if incorporating the Pioneer into the fray...

As things in my life sometimes turn out... it's working again! I just decided to test it one more time and it seems fine. Did it overheat and trip something? I was on it while, maybe an hour.

Ha! No problem, sometimes it's the simple things. But I'm halfway into the reel and it's tight as a tick.

I tried it, but no luck. I may have to order parts and would like to stock a few commonly needed repair items. Any suggestions? Some history... Parts replaced: capstan motor belt pinch roller Serviced by Norman's Electronics, Atlanta GA: "Cleaned and realigned mech. Check P/B & record...

As usual, I was just about to rev up my wifey about our new hobby by playing her a recording I just did on the oldschool equipment, and FF button just stopped working. She knew to clear out fast while I silently formed a major aneurysm. The FF button will stop REWIND or PLAY, but that's all...

Shadow_7, Thanks for the tip. It may come to that. Mo' money!

moresound, But deathride you must head this from MSH VlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlVlV you need a transformer or balanced input amplifier between the mic and recorder. you need a transformer or balanced input amplifier between the mic and recorder. My question is about the "Line...

That's right. I'm actually trying to understand all I can before I go forward. I just realized I have an SM58 with a transformer XLR/1/4" and wonering if this is what I need. Or is it just for dynamic mics like the SM58?

Thanks, mshilarious, for steering me in the right direction. I can use your info to make sense of the diagram I saw online. I've got the cable ends, I just need to get the right cable. moresound, I miss stuff like that all the time! I'm excited to get my little studio up and this mic problem is...

I want to hook up my Nady phantom power unit/AKG 220 mic set-up into my TASCAM 106 or 3440 TEAC. Got female XLR end and attempted to make my own 1/4"-to-XLR, Found an online diagram, and realized thru further reading that condensers are "balanced" and I want to know how people hook up them to...

Went to SOS and read some good stuff: "Q What's the best way to connect a balanced source to an unbalanced input? You'll need to check your equipment manual for this one, as the way you wire the cable depends on the design of the balanced output stage. In some cases you need to link the cold...

Sounds like I don't have the right cable. It's a mono guitar cable I thought I could use. My Nady has XLR outputs only but my TASCAM 106 and 3440 TEAC don't. I need the right connection to hook up my mics and it's sunday!!! Nobody's open! I want to play! I know what I want to accomplish, just...
