Took my Porta o2 to the shop here in town. dont know what happened..hardly has any hours on it, but it does everything but record. I was recording some stuff off my computer with it by using the speaker input on the computer. I dont think that would hurt anything, but now it wont record. I was planning on using it for a mixdown deck from my 424mkIII.

any idea what the hell is wrong with it? it plays, all the levels are cool, etc. just wont record.
 
If you used the computer's speaker output into the Porta Two's mic input with the gain up high you could easily cook the preamp. That is a huge mismatch.

damn, thats exactly what happened. I toldem at the shop what you said.what a bonehead i am, shoulda known better. oh well, im gonna have to dump some money into it. at least it will be a new preamp, probably gonna cost more than i paid 4 it 10 years ago, but its worth keepin.

thanks a lot.
