Hello everyone.
I got myself a Yamaha MT2X, to start experimenting with tape-recording, but i'm having my problems.
I managed to find a tape in my grandpas old recordings, that was just as the manual says it should be. (CrO2, 70µs, bias: high)
I'm pretty sure, i've done everything just as the manual says it (there is a very nice step-by-step-manual) - but still, i simply don't get that thing to record something.
Each of the 4 channels got one LED-indicator, that will blink, when the track is selected for recording - that works. When the recording starts, those LED-lights should flash continously, which they don't - that's why i think, that i'm still doing something wrong...
I can hear the sound of the microphone on the headphones, but when i want to start recording, i only hear that nice bavarian Volksmusik of my grandpa...
Can anybody give me a hint?
I guess it could be something pretty easy and obvious, for someone who is into this.
Thank you!
