Tascam M-30 mixer suitable for Tascam 48?

[Blue Jinn]

The 30 has an 8X2 aux system that is pot-by-pot pre/post/tape switchable. IMHO, this feature makes it more flexible than the older Model 5.

Thanks for the clarification!

while we're on a mixer topic here, are the M-512 and M-50 the smallest 8 bus boards out of the old tascams?, i think I'm going to try to set-up an 8 track rig I can do remote locations with and I don't want the hassle of disconnecting (or trying to transport) my 520, but I don't think the 50 or 512 would be ideal for transport purposes either. I may end up going with a smaller 3 series but at a loss of bus's

Have you thought of using a Tascam 388? Or do you need the added flexibility of something like the 512?

well I wouldn't mind using a 388 but they are so damned expensive! I haven't seen a local one for less then 400 and I've been looking for a long time. I can piece together a set-up from things I already have and get a couple other pieces of gear for cheap. I also would like the added flexibility of a bigger board and working with 1/2" tape. I would actually really like to have both!
