Re: Could Forums Like This Make a Comeback?

I haven't been to one in decades. But that's only because I'm really bad at returning books

Could Forums Like This Make a Comeback?

I mean... Facebook groups are great and everything. But are they the ideal?

Re: Tascam 388 Maintenance, Repair and FAQ thread

Hmm. There's a tension arm adjuster screw in the top section (where the meters are). Do you have the manual?

Re: Tascam 388 Maintenance, Repair and FAQ thread

I'm having the following issue. I've recently had my monitor buss pcb and m. board (the green one that joins all the other pcbs together) repaired. The first required two new pots to be soldered on and the latter required a repair to the Earth/Ground trace. When I put the monitor board and the m.bus...

Re: Looking For The Alps Catalogue No For This Tascam M300 Series Mixer Part

Well, the legs/pins have to have a certain spacing otherwise they won't go into the holes on the circuit board. I ended up getting a pair of 10K log pots simply because they no longer manufacture the linear version (which is what the originals were) with a 15" shaft and those are pure unobtanium NOS...

I decided I don't really need to fade out a mono headphone mix and ordered the 15mm audio log taper version :D

Re: The Tascam 388

Man, the aux/effect master volume pot for this thing is rarer than unicorn poop. It's almost like they can't exist outside the 388 (or any of the M-300 series mixers). The obvious place to go for Tascam spares (the Canadians) doesn't stock it, and the original manufacturer no longer produces a pot w...

Looking For The Alps Catalogue No For This Tascam M300 Series Mixer Part

The part no in question is 5282011500. I cannot find it on any of the sites that claim to stock Tascam parts.

Re: The Tascam 388

For reasons too embarrassing to be discussed anywhere I need a new pot for the Aux Master control. The model I need (an Alps Alpine PCB mounted 10K ohm A taper, 15mm D shaft) is no longer in production (though a 20mm version might be available, but I'd really rather have the right size if I can) so...

Re: The Tascam 388

Does anyone know the best way to hook a MIDI to tape synchroniser, like Tascam's MTS30, up to a 388?

What's the difference between these sleek black ones and the original grey version?
