porta studio Well Ive got a cassette portastudio and that was the first thing I recorded on with a behringer mixer!:eek: anyway I tried to upload a take on autumn leaves that I did but the porta will crap out becuase of the amount of bass I use on the guitar (the main and only instrument) so I...

thanks, I do too

Well I know what your saying, but in this case the seller is fully aware that the "original box" is indeed the original tascam/teac manufacture's box. yes cjacek your totally right, this is being sold from a pawn shop, howd ya know that, too much time on ebay like moi? :) Todays sunday, and the...

man what a beast of a machine! I cant beleive that you got it for that price! Im sure that youll have many sleepless nights playing with that:D

thanks cjacek for the great replys and checking out the manuel for me. I too thought that that seemed like a pretty box. And yes I seen corys great packing job for the 48 if thats what your talking about and Ive read through the whole packing and shipping thread and checked the links out from...

thanks cjacek. Im on that freightquote site now, it looks like you have to have it sent to a business. If thats the case I cant do that now, but 200$ to ship freight sounds right to me. fedex quoted me 1000.00 to ship freight!

ok thanks, good advice. now that I know the original box and packing materials are better then a new packing job I'll be using that and asking him to double box it. Now, how big should the outer box be? as I understand it you pack differently for different decks, but seeing as this is just a new...

So I bought a tsr 8 for 400$, susposdly in mint condition everything works, heads are good ect. now unfortunately it has to be shipped, its coming from florida to halifax ns canada, the person shipping it got a quote from ups for 300$ shipping! its 65 lbs and hes shipping it in the original box...

does anyone have an opinion on those heads from seeing the picture? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?VISuperSize&item=200459351693

thanks for clearing that up, makes much more sense now. it would be great to hear the tune without dbx whenever you have a chance to upload it somewhere.

wow thanks everyone for the detailed replys. jjones what do you mean you cant monitor off tape? (Im sure thats a stupid question:) yeah I heard about the built in dbx, what would be really cool is if someone has or knew where to find a tune that was recorded on one of these without the dbx and...

So, I came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/Tascam-TSR-8-WITH-Tascam-M-1508-Mixer-and-Remote_W0QQitemZ200459351693QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2eac4ef68d I think that I might get it, but am a bit sick to my stomach after reading through the shipping and packing thread. It...

so while Im waiting for some new tape I thought I would check the I/O well the A channell works fine, I was just speaking into a mic and all is good. the B channell will not produce any sound from the outputs but the vu meters are moving around. so for sure there is a signal but I cant hear...

yes I read about that, I just went down to the local drug store and found the only bottle they had left and its 99% !

ok I just cleaned the heads and tape path. wow there was alot of gunk on them! so here are the pictures after cleaning, please tell me what you think. btw I dont know how clear it is in the picture but from what I understand if the tape is lined up in the path correctly then the wear should be...

your right about the tape threading, that was an old picture when I first got it, just deleted it. if you look at just those 4 pictures I posted Ive got a flash light to the side to brighten it up some but Im gunna go buy some rubbing alcohol and clean them up then take some new pictures. That...

ok so Ive got this old Califone r2r with speakers built in, someone gave it to me awhile ago but I never did anything with it. at the adive of others Im gunna get some new tape, but remembering that califone I just dug it out and theres a tape on it, so I played it on that machine and it works...
