My TEAC 32-2B is home and operational again. Turns out it’s a rare one, actually being a Tascam X-10 disguised as a TEAC 32-2. I guess that’s why they added the “B.” It has 2 drive belts instead of 1, but the kicker is that it supports both NAB (North American) and IEC (European) EQ with a push button on the front panel. #GearHunter #MusicProduction #Analog #ReelToReel #Tascam #TEAC

My TEAC 32-2B reel-to-reel tape deck back from repairs in Vancouver. Also complete with warning about using shitty tapes (ie older ones) that will clog up the tape heads very quickly.

Egee’s All Paws; No Talkin’ | Remaster

Hello all you Flufferschnoots and OpenEgee fans! Here’s a throwback to the days of early Egee Asmr. It was my first big hit on that channel, too!

Kinda liking how Winamp clings to the bottom of this Tokyo office block on my desktop. Don't recognise any track titles? This is standard procedure for auditioning stuff from my Tascam recorder.

The image depicts a cityscape with tall buildings, prominently featuring a glass skyscraper in the foreground. The skyscraper has a reflective surface, mirroring the surrounding buildings and the sky. The sky is partly cloudy, suggesting a mix of sunlight and overcast conditions. In the foreground, there is a computer interface overlay, specifically a Winamp media player window. The Winamp window shows a playlist with ten tracks, each with a duration and a numerical code. The time displayed on the Winamp is 02:58, and the current track is highlighted in blue. The interface includes various controls such as play, pause, and volume adjustment. The overall color palette of the image is dominated by blues and grays, reflecting the urban environment and the overcast sky.

The whole kit is powered by a battery pack. I have 2. The lightest pack has a 12V output (+ tip) and a 5V USB. This allows me to run the lunchbox modular on 12v and then I can run the #korg #sq1 sequencer or the #tascam digital recorder or the #arturia #keystep from the USB. Or, using my USB to -9v cable, I can run a multieffect #guitar #pedal like a #zoom #ms70cdr (or any of the other 9v (-tip) pedals I have).

The 12V plug here is 5521, lunchbox is 5521 (& guitar pedals also 5521 but 9v -tip)

8 common tips for DC power supplies from 6mmx4mm down to 3.5mm x 1.35mm. 5521 is 5.5mm x 2.1mm, very common

A little lapdesk, just big enough to hold my battery pack powering my tiny portable studio: a #behringer #neutron, a #zoom #ms70cdr, a #korg #sq1 and a #tascam digital recorder.

Look at this beauty! 😍

Ever since I made my very first recordings back in the 90s I wanted one of those. And now I found a used one. Can't wait to explore this!

Someone casually dropped the Logic Bomb 💣 named tdarr

You can do DISTRIBUTED transcoding remuxing processing and automation of your Media Library

Now this is superbly interesting. All Sound Engineers have Massive, Massive media Libraries and I'm just talking about the audio

Then we have a Massive administrative system which accompanies the audio, because we need to know, what is where and Why, especially full analog audio that is still on Quarter inch Tape Reels, stacked in our large physical audio Archive.

We also have an Administration upon that, because we have carefully written down, which effect we used on which track, why and which parameters because everything is analog and nothing was possibly to be stored in a digital manner; that equipment didn't exist at all.

I have to check how long ago tdarr was developed, but this is a tool set that I needed 35 years ago!

Getting familiar with the AC Infinity heater I got for our 3D printing enclosure. We were having some issues printing with Siraya Tech Blu v2 resin that some higher temps will hopefully solve. More 4-track parts on the way! #recdel

Ran into a friend who operates a Free Blockbuster in our neighborhood, and he gave me this tape that some anonymous ‘90s home recordist had left in there. Now I’m wondering if there is a dusty, forgotten Tascam 688 hiding within walking distance… #recdel

Jack Saturn stands smiling in the center of the frame, wearing a blue Landscape t-shirt while holding a Yamaha MT100 multitrack cassette recorder. There are trees and a school building behind him.

Testing machines I cleaned and serviced last week

During test recordings, I made something cool on accident, might share it later. Recording music at high speed, then human speech one track at a time over it in normal speed gave unexpectedly #avantgarde results that worked out perfectly. I didn't know what was already on the tape at all, oops! Haha

Worked on two of these recently. Ooh, aah.

Closeup of the case to a disassembled TASCAM MF-P01. It is plastic, but looks metal. I find it especially aesthetic in dim light as the metallic finish really shines and seems more alive with the lightplay.

@matsumuri I've been super happy with my #Soundcraft Signature 12 MTK. There's a 22 MTK version as well, if you need all those channels. They also have multitrack USB for all channels. I do too have my eyes on the #Tascam Model series, though. But I think it's at least 80% GAS :)

Replacing 3 mixers with a brand new #Tascam Model 24 and loving the cleaner workflow. Proper gain staging per synth and 200% fewer dirty connections has the setup sounding great for the first time in a long time.

@PromptedInk @MsMadLemon #TASCAM and #Teac apparently still sell new decks. They are not cheap though, and not really high-end. However, I've been using one 10 years and it's OK for playing. I have a huge tape collection.

2nd market availability is good, but it's always a gamble. I'd Google first if there is a service manual and spare parts available. Prefer popular brands like #Technics and #Sony.

Tape deck is like car, it needs both regular use and maintenance to keep it working. It's fun!
