tascam 388 L/R assign buss not working
Hello, new member here...I have a 388, since 1990...great machine. I primarily use it now as a monitor mixer for Digital Performer...question is...my L/R assign buttons have stopped working. When pressed, I get nothing. I now route everthing through the 1-8 monitor busses. I have original manual and schematics. Anyone have ideas? Thanks!
I haven't used mine in at least 15 years...but after 2 decades digital, I want to record with it again. I've calibrated record/repro levels etc...it runs great, sounds great. I'd just like the L/R assign working. I monitor using the 1-8 busses...it's also my monitor mixer for my DAW, and other gear plugged into it. The 388 looks brand new too, very low hours on it. I bought it new.
Wait...
Are you using it to mix signals to the computer or to mix from the computer to... another computer?
Only, the L/R assign buttons don't work unless you have the track assign and the rec function buttons engaged as well during tracking (when the input select switch is on mic or line). They only work independent of the track assign and rec function switches in REMIX mode

No. I want to use it again after many years as a stand alone recorder. My DAW comes in line inputs, as does other gear, and I used to be able to hear that gear using the L/R assign buttons, now I have to use the monitor busses to hear those. The L/R assigns have not worked for years...and I've used the busses as a work around. I know about the monitor matrix as I I've recorded with it since 1987...then went digital about 1992...with SoundTools....the precursor to ProTools...then on to Avid AudioVision...now using Digital Performer....I began recording in 1972 with a Sony reel/reel....
I just would like get these dang L/R assign buttons working again.

Ah right. So check list
Inout Source switch is set to mic or line (depending on what's plugged into each channel strip)
Busses for each channel have been assigned to a tape track. With the pan control turned in the appropriate direction.
Rec Function switches for each track you're recording to are in the ON position
Stereo switch is in the ON position
PGM Masters and Stereo Master faders are both at 0ptimal gain.
Cue/PGM switch is in the Cue position
The Stereo Buss Assign (L/R) switches won't work during tracking unless the channel is assigned to a PGM buss and the relevant Rec Function switch is engaged.
