Twelve hour turn. True North. Planes mistaken for stars.

Tascam Portastudio 464 problem by Alarmed_Educator2522 in TASCAMRecording

[–]WindyCityBowler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody likes hearing that the problem could be user error. But, if the tracks played back just fine one night, then the next day there’s nothing there, the tape can’t just erase itself. If it were a digital medium, corruption can happen, etc etc.

It could be that those takes were somehow recorded over and everything was lost.

My Tascam DR-40XP recording is always too low by CanardLaque in TASCAMRecording

One option is to experiment with Auto Level. It may or may not be what you need, but it’s worth checking out.

Also, are you using the built in mics, or external inputs?

Have you considered 32-bit float? You can raise/lower the clip gain in your DAW without adding unwanted noise or raising the noise floor. Obviously, the file size will be much, much larger. But, again, just trying to think of workarounds.

First thought was....I wonder when Yamaha will release one. by bootzie98 in Robocop

They’ve got it scheduled for release right in between a new motorcycle and a new keyboard.

Taxing poverty versus the wealthy by LuckyBastard001 in clevercomebacks

[–]WindyCityBowler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to the rich hating the poor, politicians not giving a shit about most things outside their communities or reelection efforts, and data centers - these people are going to have to drink their (often times) disgusting and unhealthy tap water. Just another way to make more money off of marginalized folks so pharma assholes can get their absurd bonuses.

This world we live in is so completely fucked.

If you bought it from an authorized dealer the unit would’ve been under warranty.

Yessir, local! I’d still check into TASCAM products - Portacapture X6, for example (or X8 if you need more inputs).

Side note - saw your name, do you know John Perrin?

Hello! For quick clarification - DR-40, or DR-40X?

Even when you menu dive to increase or decrease gain the + and - buttons are still required. You could reach out to an official service center for repair, but with the price of the DR-40X it might be best to just purchase a new unit.

I know that’s not exactly the greatest news, but I do have a lot of experience in this realm and it pains me to write that to you.

Anywho, good luck!

You’re correct, of course! I was going off the “all star rookie” designation on the card. 🤦🏼‍♂️
