If the unit has been modded, there is not reason to use the control cable. Just hook up the in/outs properly and use it.Hi everyone, I know this is an old thread but my question is related. I have a 3440 TEAC machine and a tascam 4x4d dbx unit. The dbx unit is modified to work with any machine, but I was wondering since the control connector is the same is it possible to mod the 4x4d to work with auto switching with the teac?
I don't know about the control compatibility but my point is that there is no reason to put the unit back to stock. If modded to have both encode and decode on at all times, it will work with any recorder it's patched into. Furthermore, without having to wait for whatever switch time is involved when stock, punch in/outs will be faster and only limited by how fast the machine it's working with is. In other words, if it works, don't fix it.I think what the OP is asking is if the DX-4D is reverted back to stock, can it be connected to the A-3440 control port and expect it to work the same as the RX-9 noise reduction unit specific to the A-3440. Do I have that right?
