I posted a question a few weeks ago about the dreaded "error 7" / head cleaning, etc... Well I had my ADAT XT20 sent off to be fixed and got it back yesterday. The guy that my tech sent it to (an Alesis tech) did "everything" to it apparently. Replaced the chip, idler wheels, adjusted tape path, updated software (?), etc. Supposedly back to new. Yay.
Now my next question. the tapes that I've been using (only 2 so far) are Maxell SVHS and although they don't say ADAT on them, they say "for professional use and digital audio" and are "back coated". I don't want to continue using these if they're going to screw my ADAT up (again). I'd rather scrap them and start new with EMTEC's. What do you think?
When my machine stopped working, I was checking out some demo's from a friend who's tapes apparently were crap (not the music, but the tapes). Won't be working on those. Thanks guys.
