Hey gang! I come bearing gifts! Or... a gift, rather...
After 3 computers, 2 scanners, and 4 hours later... I bring to you the full, 46 page manual for the TASCAM 246 Portastudio in PDF format!
I just received a 246 I purchased via eBay today, wasn't working... opened it up, and the belts were mush! So I ordered some new ones, and while I wait for them to come, I figured I'd contribute to the board by posting this manual (which I've seen way too many requests for, not only on this site but on others as well!). It's an invaluable resource both for 246 owners and non-owners alike! Lots of great information to read about!
Couldn't fit it as an attachment to the board (as it's just over 15MB), so I uploaded it via Badongo.com for anyone who is interested to download:
I'm sure I'll be coming back with any questions once I get my new belts! Thanks to everyone who contributes and makes this forum a great resource for newbies and novices alike!
Thanks! Yeah I literally tore my original manual in half in order to scan each page individually for a clean scan. I'm kinda anal when it comes to stuff like that lol. I just hope people can get some use out of it!
Hi. Can anybody give me advice on how to change the large belt on the 246? I just got a belt kit and cant figure out how to get the large belt on without breaking something....I started a thread but not getting a response
Also, the pdf manual doesnt seem to be alive...is there a live link to it? Nothing opened for me. Thanks
