in paramus

they have lots of tascam parts and always do a great job on my ms-16

Adam

Check out the Adk Vienna or Hamburg 300$ each
or the TC tube Mic for around 500
these mics sound great and are a cut above the studio projects and Rode mics that are in the under 500$ range

Adam

Those 48's can sound great
rock that thing into submission
or have a tech help you
drums and bass at 15ips is sweet

Adam

you should get the OSA or a Brent Averill Lunchbox.
they also make vintage type modules that sound great

Adam

The eventide stuff sounds nice you can pick up a H3000 for under a 1000$ on ebay

Adam

sounds just as bad with tape or DAW!!!!
the platinum line is made cheaply
My compounder is broken again
the red and blue line and ISA are real products and thats what they built there rep on.

Adam

also try to Find a Local tech who can build one not a electronics repair place...

adam

the transport is a total nightmare...
get a otari or sony/mci
both are easier to fix and parts are easier to get

Adam

should be 200-350 for that little thing. They are the smallest power supply I have ever seen for a console that size... I used to have one. email allen heath in england and get the schematic....and ask what type of connector they used to plug into the console.... I would try to see if eddie celetti ...

They can handle 499
find a tech that can set it up for you.
you will need a MRL tape for 1/2 inch multitrack
once the machine is set up well it will sound better and have less hiss

Adam

oops new topic by mistake......

Did you setup the machine for 499
bias and cal etc.
you can do a +6 cal
+9 is a stretch on those machines

Adam

hey
use quantegy 499 tape
less hissy then 456 and can take the heat
those 2 headed decks are a pain to cal so get some help if you have never done it
