Tons of people do it, and I want in! I dont need to make a living...just a few hundred each month, combined with my recording money and I can live without a real job! Heloooo tour! Man, i'm living in a dream world... Any websites, suggestions, or tips excluding "dont do it" or "get a job, punk"?

I've been getting into reapir of consumer electronics, mainly amps, reciever, tape decks and tvs. I do what I can with my DMM but I dont know much. My girlfriend got me a book called "repairing consumer elctronics without a schematic". The book is pretty rough, constantly going in circles, and isnt ...

Im in the market for a 2 track reel to reel, mainly to mix down from CEP before going to CD. I dont trust e-bay and shipping with somthing like this so It has to be a "pickup." I dont mind driving a few hours. I've been looking at the 2 track MX5050 and the Tascam 22-2. Open to suggestions for other...

I saw this on e-bay while looking for an mx5050. These things are awesome dude! Great idea! I dont need one now but will (hopefully) soon. Do you make these for sale or is this the only one? PM me.

Seattle's greatest Pop-Punk band Sicko had a song called "80 dollars"...

Chef Boyrudumb is one of my fav albums of all time! "The time has come to talk about the place I work, my name is Ian and I'm a computer dork!"

Awesome! I need to check these places out. I should also post in the buy sell area...maybe somone is looking to unload there old 2 track. Like I said, I dont mind driving to pick these things up. Hell, for a good deal I would drive to DC!

I think we're getting away form the topic here, but one thing you will need to prepare for is getting the alcohol to clean with. You need to use 99.8% pure anhydrous alcohol and nothing lower than that percentage on the headstack. Problem is, this is considered a hazardous material, therefor they do...

I'm looking for a 2 track machine to experiment with. Mainly to mix down my CEP and/or ADAT sessions to help em out before going to CD. Also to learn how these machines work and how to service them before going to something bigger (8 track.) I've been looking into either an otari mx5050 2 track, or ...

I'm going to buy a reel to reel (finaly) but I dont want to take my chances with e-bay and shipping. Does anyone have some websites for used gear in the NY(C)/NJ/CT area? I dont mind driving for a few hours, cause its worth it...I dont trust ups, or peoples ability to back things correctly.

I had a similar post in the computer board. Any suggestions for a 1/2 track deck? I've been looking into the otari mx5050 2 track, or the tascam 22-2.

Thats sounds like some good stuff. I get the audio into CEP via ADAT digital. I have been looking into getting a nice comp, and sending the mixdown into that, then to my cd deck. Then I can bypass the CEP hard limit on the mixdown, and possibly sweeten my mix with a nice compressor. Then again, the ...

I'm not familiar with the Linkwitz mod...do you have alink? or just some info about it?

I was playing around with my tapeop omni, and noticed that the mic capsule fits into the hole in my snare. I wanted to experiment, but first I want to make sure this wont damage the mic capsule, and also make sure this isn't a straight up stupid idea. In my mind the omni capsule will pick up sound o...

I know this is a long shot on this board, but I want to trade my backup Adat LX20 (about 300hrs, reg serviced) for an 8 track reel to reel. I was hoping for a tascam 388 or 38, ect

Side Question: How portable is the 388?
