Hi,
I know this is an old thread but I recently got one of these otari mx5050 8tracks and when I go out of my board with a 1/4" TRS to XLR in the input of the tape machine I get no signal. I tried a TS 1/4" also. When I plug a microphone directly into the machine I get a signal.
I don't have one, but I think the Otaris have a different XLR pinout, where pin 3 is hot instead of pin 2. Have you tried rewiring the one of your cables that way?
