Found the fader caps, auction came with two faders assemblys so hit me up if you need some

Apologies if the answer is in this thread somewhere but the search function brings up a bajillion unnessary hits so I thought I'd just drop in quickly on the experts: has anyone divined a nice workaround for soloing tracks in the monitor section? Or is this not doable?

hmmmm - checked the belt, thats OK, tape is new too. If I am able to oil this, I am golden. Will stick my nose in the internets and see what I can find. I've never really experienced that on the three I have owned, but my understanding is you can oil it. Maybe check the service book. Also be sure yo...

Just picked up a 388 for a song (back in biz!) and not only is the capstan motor louder than I remembered (there is a variable low frequency rumble, almost a ocean-going churning to it) but last night the motor started to pick up a high-pitched squeal/whine to it. I turned it off for a minute and it...

emailed!

and how about shops selling random old musical ephemera around here? Like microverbs, crappy keyboards & other fun, non-mainstream-centric items? In Portland we have Trade UP, which is pretty eclectic for the day to day random items. The shops I have found here so far seem to be pretty guitar-centri...

if anyone is looking to unload one cheap, I was thinking about getting one for a tiny studio on the cheap...

great! thanks guys!

I have need of some repair here in AZ to fix my Pioneer SA9500 amp and cannot find any good (or relevant) info off of the internets - does anyone know or have any experience with a good, honest shop in these parts or environs? thanks!

The power supply has three lights - +48, -17 & +17. The first two on mine are very bright and the last, the +17, is either very dim or out and being lit by the other two - is it possible that this -17 functionality is out? What do these lights mean? (other than the phantom power is functional I am a...
