My Tascam 38 reel was fine until yesterday when it started acting up. All of a sudden its making a high pitched "whirring" sound (coming from inside the deck, not in the recordings). Also, sometimes the recorder doesnt stop at 0000 and it continues to rewind. When it does this, the remote doesnt function and neither do the buttons on the front of the deck. I have to turn it off just to stop it.
All of these things went wrong at the same time and i never had these trouble before. The recorder still plays and records just as it always has, there is nothing wrong with playback or recording. Rewind and fast forward seem fine its just the stopping at zero that keeps messing up. Sometimes worse than others. All belts are new.
Can anyone tell me what might be wrong and what i might have to do to fix this? What kind of service fees does Tascam charge?
It just stinks because i am finally getting recordings that i LIKE the sound of and now its breaking.
Thanks for your time.
