Hi everyone,
Well, I'll soon be doing a few sessions on location with both of my Tascam TSR-8 machines. My initial plan was to transport them in the back seat of my car in regular rack cases, finding some way of tying them down so they wouldn't bounce around too much...but I've seen some people write that tape machines should only be transported around in shock-mount rack cases. Considering that a shock-mount case large enough for one of these will be almost double the cost of a regular case, is it really necessary to keep them in one? I mean, if I were jostling them around in the back of a trailer or something, I'd understand, but am I looking at potentially throwing these machines out of alignment if I transport them this without a shock-mount rack case?
Thanks
