I have a question concerning my Tascam...It's a Tascam 70 series reel to reel four track...the recorder powers up fine...the power light goes on as well as the dial lights, however, the play - f.f. - r.w.- stop area does not seem to be powering the mechanics of the actual reel mechanisms...I think that it's the fact that maybe a wire isn't completely running through the entire recorder...Although I don't have too much experience with these recorders, so I'm not really sure...I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I haven't tried to play any tape on it yet - does there need to be tape on the reel to make it at least spin? Any help would be more than appreciated, I want to get this project off the ground. Thanks!
