I'm pretty new to home recording. I bought a Tascam US-428 and it works really well. There is one problem, though. When I hook up my Fender amp to the US-428 using the pre-amp output from the fender, I get a lot of static. It doen't happen using my old porta studio. Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i keep seeing these for sale for under $300 all over the place, and I am wondering if anyone has ever used these for music/rock recording? it is almost tempting to pick one up to track some vocals or snare/kicks on them. but it is a waste of time? or are these valuable elements in a studio? i know the whole debacle on tape companies is uncertain as well...but I'm tempted...

Hello there,
I'm recording with an MS 16 1" multitrack and the AQ 65 Autolocate.
I'm having probs with the autolocate. It won't accept instruction and is flashing randomly and rapidly whilst giving random commands to the machine.I wonder if there's a way to reset it.
Any ideas.
thanks

I recently purchased what was supposed to be a Frontier Designs Tango24 8-channel D/A and A/D converter. What I received was a 20-bit Tango (no 24). I sent it back and should be getting a refund soon.

Tascams DM24 Digital Mixer and Yamaha's older 02R. .

Is is better to use Hi-8ME rather than Hi-8MP? Also I've got some at home except they say on them 'video'. Does that mean I need to get ones dedicated for audio or could I use the ones I have?

Cheers!

does anyone know how to make this thing work, I have been messing with this unit for almost a week and still no luck, I am running a dell computer with windows xp.

Tascam FW-1082 or PreSonus Firepod
I am looking for a Digital interface with Mic preamps and firewire, that's both reasonable and good sounding (Is there such a device?)

Any thoughts on the above mentioned interfaces or other ones like them, in the same price range will greatly appreciated?

Thank you so much,
