Tascam 38 Problem

D'oh! :o

As for the track 2 problem, double check your hookups and the fitness of the cable that feeds it signal. If that checks out, the interior channel card might need to be reseated...basicly pulled out and put back in to clean any possible oxidized contacts that connect the board to it's motherboard.

What would I do without you man!?
(I'd probably sit for hours troubleshooting all the electronics :D )
It worked like a charm. I've also took a sharp eraser and cleaned those contacts a little.
Thank you! :)

It stopped working again! The same channel. So I swapped two channel boards. That didn't do it. I'm thinking it might be the output path somewhere. I'll be troubleshooting it tonight.
 
Ok, no cold joints found. :cool:
So I've tested it again:
In recording mode: meter reads it for channel 2, on Repro: it's dead.
And during one of the previous tests it was working! :o
So is that some of the electronics that are going out? Semi-conductors? Am I on the right track? :confused:

I've tried switching cables and even swapping channel boards inside. By the way, can I do that? Or is there any special bias setting on every channel boards that's a bit different from the other?
Thanks
