Hey everyone. My dad was asking me if theres a way to get his tapes from way back when, and put them into a Pro Tools session so he could mess with them and put them onto CD cause there starting to age. I tried going from the headphone of the tape deck into the input 1 of the digi002 but it was distorted and waving in and out.

I have recently begun upgrading my studio with some better preamps (seventh circle) and converters (ISA428 card) and for some reason my 30 year old teac 2-track recorder has escaped my eye untill now.

Greetings yet again folks
So i just purchased a reel for my 388 tape deck and also have a Tascam fw-1804 as my interface what runs to my nuendo setup. I was curious to know how can i use my Tascam 388 to optimize the sound of my recordings by either tracking it in the Tascam or tracking it to my nuendo first.

Hello everyone,

Hey all! I finally decided to put the Rec/Repro cards back in the little Fostex 1/4" 8-track. Before anyone yells at me, it was free, m'kay!

Anyway, I need to calibrate the deck, but I'm not quite sure which trim pot I should start with. I've got my 1kHz tone on tape from another deck that was pretty close to calibrated (I realize this is a poor way to do it, but bear with me).

Despite some very good advice from a highly-regarded member of this and other recording forums to go digital all the way (right now I have a single ADAT with analog console and mixture of analog and digital outborad units), I feel a visceral need to have an analog tape deck.
