No problem! People who understand the machine well will find this redundant, but it would have saved me a lot of time. HOW TO SET UP THE TASCAM 788 TO OUTPUT SIX ANALOG TRACKS Pair tracks 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6 (manual p. 41) Click SEND. Click SELECT for channel 1. Set both EFF and AUX to OFF (not...

An update: it was not hard to record a single click on tracks 1 and 5 of the cassette, and as I'd hoped, it made aligning the 1-4 block and the 5-8 block easy, once I got them all together on GarageBand.

Thank for this. It updates my paper manual. I have also tried the WAV export function, but the problem is that the 788 and the CD burner (which still worked a year ago) are not getting along. Since posting, I discovered that the 788 can read CDs from my CD drive. It's the writing that triggers a...

Let's assume that my CD burner, which played nicely with my 788 a few months ago, is not going to stop putting the Tascam into PANIC anytime soon. I'm fairly sure that there's a way to get six tracks straight from the 788 onto my Macintosh, but I am bewildered by the routing scheme. You probably...

I just did a search for PRB and was taken to their eBay page. But I appreciate the recommendation just the same.

I don't know. I think there isn't. I did find some interesting information about my question here: https://gearspace.com/board/music-computers/1361294-how-sync-garageband-prerecorded-striped-code-transferred-portastudio.html

I've done a quick search and so far it seems that GarageBand cannot be enslaved. You have to admire such a spirit of independence, but unless that's wrong, there may be no way to do this, even with the MTC/FSK converter. I wonder if the FSK stripe, recorded to one of the GarageBand tracks, might...

I've got some cassettes recorded 25 years ago on a Tascam 488 that I am now ripping into GarageBand. Some of them have an FSK sync signal on track 8. Not by coincidence, those recordings are usually lacking drums - I had a MTS-30 synchroniser and an Alesis drum machine in those days, so there...

To clarify, I don't have the interface to record 8 tracks on a single machine, so I have been simultaneously dubbing tracks 1-4 to GarageBand and tracks 5-8 to a Tascam 788 (digital). Single pass. Once that's finished, I fly the sound files from the 788 into GarageBand and reunite them with...

Really old thread. Anyone still here? I am wondering: Why not use the headphone jack and a Y cable for outputs from tracks 7 and 8? It's a stereo output, right? That would obviate the need for using the sync out, although that is pretty clever. I'm about to record a single loud click at the...

I don't know, unfortunately. I replaced the belt first thing. There was no way to check playback without a new belt.

I replaced the belt. It's all up and running, although I haven't checked any record functions yet. Meanwhile, in PLAY, on tracks 6 and 7 the VU meters show a signal, and I can hear those recorded tracks through CUE, but not through MIX. Running faders 6 and 7 up and down gives nothing at all, so...
