saw an interesting post on hr. A guy is looking for good software to add brushes to his creation. Wow...He cant find a drummer who knows how to use brushes. Such is the state of affairs in home recording and the software world.
Im somewhat a recording newbie (long time player). I used to hate all the time me mates wasted setting up recording apparatus when we played. Never heard any bottom at all.
I mix down to either my Masterlink and/or my teac 2300sx reel to reel. Although the Masterlink imho is a dead on machine as far as no skip cds, mixing down to the teac is a whole different feeling. I love the monster size buttons for transport on the teac. It sounds perfect and my noise reduction unit I scored (teac an-80) so far sits in the corner as the eq and bias buttons on the 2300 do the trick.
When I hit the rewind button, its like shifting gears in a 68 Camaro. Clunk, whirrrrr. Like a goddam Swiss watch. I scored a brand new reel of tape still sleeping in cellophane. The aroma when I opened it was beautiful.
As far as playback sound quality....hello? Is the band still playing in there? Holy Shit its good.
I got the deck for free in exchange for transfering 10 old reels of family tapes to cd on my masterlink. Although it took hours, it was a joy to hear kids singing Christmas Carols on tape from 1956. I couldnt believe the sound they got from a radio shak omni directional passed around the room.
What a deal. It got me going right away with using the deck and learning it, and my friend that gave me the deck is overwhelmed that she can hear her mothers voice again. All for the price of 2 caps.
no specific reason for this post but to say how cool these decks are. I was hoping to score a 4 or 8 track r2r, but Im glad I scored the mixdown deck first.
It even has teac reels!!!
thanks for reading
