Hi,
I have received a ton of useful information getting my Tascam 38 set up with my Tascam M-30 mixer.. so thanks for that to this forum!
Anyway - I have run into this problem with the M-30's submix section. I use the submix section to monitor inputs and tape playback (selecting between post and tape) and can pan things left or right on all but 2 channels.
On channel 2 and 4 of the submix section, you lose all sound when you pan left. I have cleaned the pots and sort of checked out the submix card that these channels are both on but haven't tried to remove it.
Unfortunately, this all happened right at the beginning of a recording project (of course)
Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be? I figure it's got to be an internal issue to the submix. I hooked up another mixer to my 38 and could hear the tracks that I recorded through the M-30 and they seemed to have hit the tape correctly, so the problem seems to just be with the monitoring of the submix.
the only other thing I can figure that might have something to do with it is that the headphone jack seems to be messed up as well. I get around this by using a headphone amplifier connected to the submix out.
When I plug headphones into the headphone jack you have to mess with the plug in order to hear stereo... like keeping the plug pulled just a little bit out of the jack which never stays in the same place for long. Otherwise it will seem to be in mono or just left or right depending.
I love the M-30 for it's vibes and convenience, but taking it in to my local service center will be expensive, so i was hoping there was something i could do on my own...
Help!
