More Otari Relay Questions!

Post by sethl » Tue Dec 01, 2009 7:27 pm

I've gotten a lot of great information on my Otari here, but there's still one nagging question regarding my MX5050 8-track:

Everyone seems to agree that changing the relays is a good idea, and most people recommend this Omron part: G5V-2 24V.

Alternately, some folks recommend Aromat DS2E-S-DC5V.

But I note that there are two types of relays on the motherboard: One kind is used for sel-rep switching and the other kind engages "record." Does this Omron (or Aromat) part replace both? I can't find any information whatsoever on the original Matsushita relays.

Thanks,
Seth
