    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    Geez I would feel like such an idiot if it was only a fuse! At least I would have learned a bit.... :), the previous owner said he had replaced the fuses with no effect, but at this point in time I should know better then to take someone at their word Cory, I am not at home yet but I will get...

    Feedback loop on mixing board

    and reading back I suggest you take m1fanatcs advise as well when you are synching.... but this is all really hard to decipher without being able to see how your mixer routes and monitors audio.

    Feedback loop on mixing board

    No problem, glad you got it to work... Just fyi if you are doing a mix-down use the repro setting as it is a dedicated head for playback. Use the sync for when you are tracking and you want the tracks you have already recorded to be synced with what you are recording. in sync mode the...

    Feedback loop on mixing board

    I'm not too familiar with Ramsa boards but two things jump out at me... do you have the 38 set to sync or repro? If it is set to input, then that could cause a feedback loop. You don't have line in/tape returns on the individual channels of the board to use? If so that would be the ideal way to...

    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    I'm using an A & D AD-5526, it's a cheapie and there seems to be little to no references available to it online... but looking it over I've realized there was some user error and that I was measuring DC current where I should have been measuring voltage, I will retest using the proper settings...

    Tascam 38, issues that can be resolved?

    glad to hear it was not something serious, I was assuming there was probably a user error in there, when I first got my m-520 it took me about half an hour to figure out how to get any sound out of it from anywhere:)

    Tascam 38, issues that can be resolved?

    You are visually seeing signal on the vu meter of the board AND the 38? or just the board?

    What is a Teac 5 mixer worth?

    Sounds good, hope you enjoy... 175 for a pristine board sounds a-ok in my book.

    What is a Teac 5 mixer worth?

    Sweet! 3 series boards are seriously good pieces of equipment... were you able to talk him down any? It's funny I just saw two of those local to me, one for 230, and one 250:eek:! Seems outrageous to me.

    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    Cory, The test I referred to was informed to me through a friend. I was able to find this info on the web, it seems you are right that this is a "course" test. The basic premise is to see if the caps are holding the power distributed through the meter. From...

    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    Hey thanks for the reply Beats, heres the actual schematic (sorry about that I missed this one) Caps cant be tested in circuit? I wasn't aware of this... my method for testing was to discharge all the caps on the board set my standard multimeter to its highest ohm setting and then connect...

    What is a Teac 5 mixer worth?

    I don't know how close this is to you... but this may be ideal if you could talk him down a bit on the price. Although that may be a pretty legit price it's really hard to tell seeing as how the fluctuate so often and if you wait long enough you can always come up on a steal...

    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    Allright as it turned out what I had assumed to be transformers were vertically mounted ICs... Here is the schematic, parts list, and part of the data sheet for the IC power amp. I'm not too sure how to go about testing the IC. Caps, diodes, resistors, etc I know. My assumption...

    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    Is the headphone amp located on the same card as the headphone jack? I see no IC located on that card... there are 2 Transformers (unless these are vertically mounted ICs), 6 Electrolytic Caps, 2 Ceramic Caps, A 4 pin wire connector, and 2 points where 2 wires are soldered into the card. The...

    phono preamp ==> guitar amp?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't you also need a direct box? I assume if it has another input besides the phono it's going to be looking for line level impedence.... That said I know nothing about ham radios.

    Troubleshooting M-224 Headphones

    Hey I came into a M-224 mixer a few weeks ago (traded an mxl-990 for it:D), all of the board seems to work a-ok. With the exception of the headphone jack, which outputs nothing. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on where to begin the troubleshoot? I've opened the bottom panel and...
