Absolutely loved both Golden and Pirates. Golden was great, super helpful, did a couple versions of a few songs for us, and the final product sounded amazing. They really turned it into an album that had a unified sound. Pirates Press was also awesome to deal with. Really great customer...

Another Hundred Miles Hi all, Here is my band's latest album. (Link: A Thousand Weary Nights | Another Hundred Miles). It's got an alt-country, americana vibe to it. It was recorded onto a Tascam TSR-8 through an Allen & Heath Mixwizard 14:4:2 mixer. Other notable gear includes: Bock u197...

I think you can get the KRK Rokit RP5's for about $150/ea new. I have 8" ones and I really like them. You can probably find them within your price range on ebay/craigslist.

As someone who mixes with an Allen & Heath Mixwizard 14:4:2 and a TSR-8, this add made me poke my head in the studio to make sure nothing was missing! Great setup at a killer price.

I'm looking for 1/4" 2-track reel to reel as a mixdown deck. I'd prefer something like a: Tascam BR20, Tascam 42, Revox PR99, or Otari MX5050, but I am flexible as along as it can record at 15ips and its in good condition. I'm located in southwest Virginia and I'm willing to drive a ways to...

I realize that there is noise upon playback, but I wasn't sure if the tracks were altered at all on the tape by having the dbx on during recording. I have never tried recording 1 take to two tracks, 1 with dbx, 1 without, hence the question.

Question about noise reduction: I have a TSR-8 which has DBX noise reduction onboard. If I record a track with the DBX on, does it have any impact on what hits the tape, or does it only filter the playback?

or, if you're willing to drive a long distance... search all of craigslist:

The problem hasn't reappeared yet, but I haven't done much recording since testing it. I hope to give it a good run through this weekend. I appreciate your offer on the calibration, I may take you up on it next time I'm in RI!

I first noticed the problem after moving from New Jersey to Virginia. I packed the R2R very well in the move, but the dropouts first started after I got everything set back up again. Upon removing the bottom cover I certainly smelled that familiar oxidized odor, so I imagine that is some of...

Hah, I don't blame you. I was also hoping to pair a BR20 up with my Tascam TSR-8. I'm in western Virginia now, but my family is in RI so I'm up there a lot (be back up in April & May).

Glad to hear the BR20 still survived the ordeal. If you're ever interested in selling it, I've been on the market for a BR20 for about 6-8 months. I'll compensate you for your initial shipping woes!

I took off the bottom cover. I was able to wiggle the cards around, but unable to get them fully dislodged (I was a bit nervous). I firmly rest the cards as best as I could. I did a quick test of recording 4 minutes of audio onto each track and I haven't noticed any dropouts yet. Cross your...

Hi all, Here are some pictures of the heads. I have no idea what to look for and what they should look like. Any help would be appreciated. VictoryPete, where in RI are you? I'm from Lincoln originally, my family's still there. (sorry, they're all upside down for some reason.)

Hi everyone, I have not been able to fix this problem yet. I've cleaned the heads thoroughly. It's generally gotten worse (dropouts occur more frequently now). Questions: 1. Is this an alignment issue? Does anyone know how to align a TSR-8? I've never done this and I can't figure it out. I...

i'm interested. when you decide on what it is your selling, what it looks like, and how much you're asking... toss me a message! i'm not local, but only a hop, skip, and a jump away up in blacksburg, va

First question: What are your general opinions on the Revox B77? I'm looking for a reel to reel to bounce down my mixes off a Tascam TSR-8. Is this a good option? Will I need noise reduction (the TSR-8 has it on board)? General thoughts/comments/recommendations? I'd really like a Tascam...

hi, i was wondering if you still have that otari.

Do you still have the Otari? And just to confirm: it is working, correct?

Hi There, I have recently been recording on tracks 1 and 2 of my Tascam TSR-8. The tape is new, and I've recorded on it many times in the past. During playback, the tracks that were recorded have significant volume drops (6 or more db) randomly. Often, the volume will drop and then continue...
