I own a Midistudio 688
I am learning to use it, with a little help from a friend. I need WALTERS, because I am learning the punch-in/punch-out function, and I am sure he is good at that.

I have 3 Tascam recorders. A Tascam Digital Portastudio 564, a Tascam Midistudio 688 and a Tascam Portastudio 424. I love them all, and have been a Tascam user since I got my Tascam Porta One in January 1988! If I had to choose one, it would be the 688. Hands down, it is the best cassette multitracker ever made!

HeatherTascm all my life. Period. What else was there at my budget?
I don't even remember the #'s of my first Teac gear, recorders included. What I do have now is My TSR-8, M-30 sync, M-3216 and my beloved 2488.
I think I've read all the digital recording box bashing I can stand. Sorry all you analog brothers and sisters but, I just can't afford to maintain the console and the RtoR anymore. For all my 45+ years of recording music, It's never been anything else but for the results you get from your pleasure and work documenting sound.
As a musician FIRST, engineer 2nd I can get more and better "results" faster, cleaner, less expensive and Ive allowed for about 70% more real-estate since owning and opperating my 2488. Once I got over the digital/menu type learning curves, (2-3 months) (and I have to admit it was painfull) everything started falling into place. I've never been more creative, had so much fun and have been more prolific.
I'm a performance driven musician. I don't like being held back. My huge ego can't tollerate mechanical setbacks. Going back to analog protocal would surely suffocate the creative juices that flow freely, spawned by inspiration.
That said, I am not avert to using my TSR-8 for specific apps. To me, It's all about results. Sonic and production.

I have had a 2488 about 8 months. Just got started using it & learning to use it about a month ago. This is my first venture into recording so there is a pretty large learning curve. I bought the DVD that Tascam SHOULD include with the 2488 & it really helped alot.
Started a basic recording class through the Junior College here in Champaign IL. Pogo Studio owned by Mark Rubel. This guy is a great teacher & you can tell that he is in the business because he loves it.
Anyway I am really starting to learn to use my 2488!

Tascam 22-2

I've had this 4 track for a few years and just got a software audio program (Magix Audio Studio) to burn CDs.
Of course I can't get the dadgum software to work. When I run my patch line into the LINE IN plug on my PC, I get sound fine, but when I record the audio as a wave, the sound is so faint on the PC, it's useless.
It's like going on a date with Pam Anderson and finding out that when her makeup gets warm, she really looks like Tommy Lee.
