Hi all,
I'm in the process of refurbishing a Tascam 246 at the moment. So far I've manged to fix all the issues except these 2:
1. Track 3 will record to tape however it only plays back when the "monitor" switch is engaged. When I press the PGM switch in the volume drops dramatically to a barely audible level. Audio recorded to track 3 of the tape works as when the "monitor" switch is engaged I get full signal leading me to believe there is a fault somewhere in the PGM playback board but I open to hear if any of you guys here have any opinions?
2. The PGM/Monitor L/R VU Meters light up but do not move or register signal when playing back audio from tape. Not sure what could be causing this issue.
If anyone has any pointers as to where to start looking I'd be extremely grateful. thank you!
