Hello chaps.
I have recently, purchased a fostex r8, and a fostex 812 mixer.
I have not owned any recording equippment before, but have been around it in a studio setting, as a guitarist.(awaits jokes)
So, a couple of questions from a newbie.
In my R8 manual, it says you should clead the heads with pure alcohol(what a waste), and you should de magnetise them every 8 hours, to get the best sound.
Do people really do this? if so, what do i need to do it?
also, does anyone know where to download the manual for the 812 mixer?
thanks in advance....
