Take a high-resultion photograph of the front-panel, and we can tell you which switch goes where.

oooh, okay, good idea. hold on.

From what I've read on the net so far it appears to be a 6 track...weird but neat!

 

[Mark7]

No, it's a Four Track. It just has six mixer channels.

Sansui did a Six Track.

 

[jake-owa]

Ahh..

oooh, okay, good idea. hold on.

well i can't get my camera to hook up to the computer right but anyway it seems like the pictures wouldn't be close enough.

can't you go by how i described it?

 

[Mark7]

I can only go by the control configuration on Tascam Four Tracks.

What's to the right of the six channel strips?

 

[Mark7]

Hello?

 

[regebro]

can't you go by how i described it?

No, it seems to have submix channels. But describe them too, and maybe we could do something.

 

[Mark7]

Look carefully. Somewhere on there are buttons or switches that arm individual tracks for recording.

It could be something like

1/2
3/4
L/R

or

1
2
3
4
L/R

The Submix buttons are there to Buss channels to tracks, not to put the tracks into Record Ready mode. Hence you can have more than one channel feeding a track.
