Well, after 20+ years of use, my old Porta 02 Portastudio finally gave up the ghost. It started a few days ago when it was struggling to wind the tape on the take up reel in Play Mode.
Last night it ate my practice tape.
Channel 3 never would play back without a jack from the tape out into the channel in
(cool workaround).
It's been a good machine over the years. I guess I can still use it for a sub-mixer but for now it's in its box resting peacefully.
I'll be using my newer 424 MKIII in it's place. I may even pick up a second 424 off eBay - man they're cheap now...
Take Care my old friend......
