Hi!! I'm having a problem with my 388. When I pan hard on any of the channels the signal gets dirty and lowers its volume. If I only pan half way then it actually works without any problems. That happens only in mixing mode, I mean, when I'm sending the tracks to L/R. While I'm tracking I am able to...

I found a belt and it was not my problem. Mine RWs and FFs (sometimes) but doesn't play. Each time a transport function stops you have to switch it off and on to try again, because if you don't the machine just doesn't respond. It also gets tired sometimes and shuts itself down and there's no way of...

You could try to clean the brakes, they are located under the heads. I'm having problems with my transport too. Mine does RW and FF (sometimes), but it doesn't play or record. The Capstan Belt doesn't look too bad, but I'm gonna change it anyway (when I find a replacement). I changed the fuses just ...

Thank in advance.

So, no doubt, I'll get a pair of 012s. Thank you guys!!!

thank you all.

Hi!! I've been reading this forum for about two years and never took the time to register. I must say that I've learned a lot from you guys. Thank you. Now I've got a question. I recently bought one Octava mk219 PE Mod and now that I've selled some things I've got cash to buy either another mk219 PE...
