Hi, my Tascam PortaStudio 424 MKII is not working. It powers up and looks fine, but the transport controls don't work. I press play and there's a faint click, but nothing happens. Same with RW and FF. Is there supposed to be a belt on the black spindle part? The capstan shaft is not spinning...

anybody heard of this? i unscrewed the lid and it says shure on the inside. it sounds like cheaper condneser. is that a old shure mic or something? why dont it say shure on the outside??

good info, thanks

does that mean dbx compression/expansion or is something else going on?

well it sounds okay and it is built like a fucking cow head if you ask me. it's about real-world results and it's for working class people who make cheap ass records because they love to. it's not for people who want to sound like gay assholes with a million dollars.get over yourselfs

the sm57 sounds fine to me. i like it better than crappier ldc's i've heard. whenever i heard mp3s off this web page, the sm57 usually asserted people as modest homerecorders who're getting the job done, while these crappy ldcs assert people as home recorders who are trying to sound great and...

i dunno man. the guitar isn't too bad. but everything seems kind of weird. the vocal track and take isn't that good. if i were covering this song, i would take it in a more deliberate, brilliant direction but that's kind of what separates me from you guys. brilliance. so in conclusion, it's not...

a reel person, wow man you know a lot about these. i have an old 424 mkII..... is the mkIII just more compact? i don't intend to upgrade, just curious

it's okay. kind of boring, but it wont hurt anybody's ears. i'm not getting what i want out of mine

the more green squares you got, the more dudes you have slept with

i like the whole thing, i like 'dean's dream' and "very ape" the best. maybe do the same thing and just make up your own songs

i posted samples of a shure a couple weeks ago and nobody asked me to post it someplace else. the pmi prejudice is as bad as the pmi circle-jerk. unhelpful and maybe counterproductive the clip sounds okay, but the mic falls apart in certain places. like the word "meeeeeeee" and the "yyyyyyy"...

music hall makes fantastic turntables. much better than the cheap stuff and check out the thrift shops around where you live. i've found a thorens and some older pioneers around here. people think they're obsolete

re: the mix...... it's clean except there is a little compression on the main voice track i think, and the bass is funkified re: the monitors..... they're event ps6s which i like a lot

it's okay, but i'm nowhere near where i want to be. i'll have to spend the extra million dollars to get a difference that is really glaring to me. it was dumb to think i could get much closer to the music i like by spending only $500 on a microphone. i am dumb it's also pretty dumb to say any...

i just got a shure ksm44 so i did tests on it just for yous guys. i wont use the words "versatile" or "workhorse" like i keep reading about it here 1: voice 2: acoustic guitar 3: song http://llocal.outburst8.com/homerecbbs/mictest/voice.mp3...

hi, geet... i put some songs up on your thing to test a microphone out for the mic forum people. if this is a problem, please just let me know. thanks

okay case closed, i bought the mackie. see how easy that was? thanks

i see, i see. i mean magical just in terms of the quality of pres. all MY stuff is magical, my handsome son paddyponchero: just in terms of sound quality, which do you think sounds better? because like i said, price is no object because i'm a very important business man. (which is not meant to...

thanks for posting... i guess it would be only 'nice' to have a mixer. but if the consensus says the difference is negligible, i'll get the mixer. so i guess i'm asking if that's what the consensus is. anybody else? is one more magical than the other? anybody?
