One thing that you should check before you get frustrated is that there
is a jumper between the ACCESS Send and Receive jacks on each
channel, or, as I did when I had a TASCAM Model 5, connected them
to a normalled pair of jacks on a patchbay.

Thanks for the heads up. I know there are a number of jumpers with it
as I noticed them (and wondered what they were!) when I gave it a
cursory inspection after I picked it up, however I don't know if
there's one for every channel so I'll check that out.

I'm hoping to get the beast set up in our rehearsal space this weekend,
so I'll find outr how much of it really works then!

Thanks,

Tim
