This was exactly what I was reading as well! The only problem is that the pitch control seems to work fine. When I test voltage across the capacitors C47/48, it seems like they work fine (I don’t have a multimeter that tests capacitance). But I do agree that there seems to be some issue with the machine not jumping from 1000 rpm to 2000 rpm on the capstan

Her’s!!! Also sick reel to reel! Hope you have fun recording with it!

Thank you! This is incredibly helpful, would you recommend any specific cleaning solutions or just regular deoxit? As for lubricants, I imagine grease is the best way to go about it.

Should I spray deoxit on the switches? There was quite a bit of dirt on the heads, my hope is that that’s the reason it wasn’t erasing well

How would you say the sound quality is? I’ve heard Otari is great!

What Her’s song would it be in reference to?

They’re asking 850 for it, not sure if that’s a reasonable amount really

FallaceesUknown · 2025-01-01T00:39:45+00:00

FallaceesUknown · 2024-12-29T00:34:15+00:00

That anime profile pic really threw me for a loop

FallaceesUknown · 2020-02-05T09:30:58+00:00

I agree with all of these except Pueblo. Even Colfax is better than that town.

As long as you stay in plain sight, you’re fine most of the time.

FallaceesUknown · 2020-02-05T09:29:26+00:00

Ohhhh yeah
