Â*There are a lot of them out there and they are easy to work on, very rugged, and there is good support for them. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." Here is what he said.. " Hey Glenn, I have refunded you money because while final test tape recorder, got the take up reel stuck on machine and snaped off tip of reel. Sorry guess this transaction wasn't ment to happen! Let me start looking for replacement part." What??? I think he really didn't want to ship it.. Oh well.. I have an Ampex 440B 1/2" 4 track. It's good ,but I don't have enough room to fit it in my control room. Guess I could use it with longer cables running out to my playing room. Sort of hate to pull it off the roll around stand, but I guess I could rack up two channels and transport. GT. Sure he didn't really mean, "I just saw this http://www.endlessanalog.com/ supported-tape-machines so the deal is off!!!" ? ) -- This beink simple Linux sig_____________________Hooboy!!!! |

You get more of your money's worth when using it with a 24-track analog machine. I don't even know if they have support for the MX-55.

Yeah... somehow it snipped that URL when I posted. Try it now. It is one of the few supported transports, and an excellent way to do CLASP on a budget I suspect. I'm trying out Ubuntu here, and I am a bit new with this newsreader. I am kind of sniffing around to see if anyone has experience with Ubuntu Studio as well. -- |
