The Tascam 464 is a Portastudio designed to record 4 tracks onto a standard cassette. It features a built in mixer with three bands of EQ on each channel, XLR inputs on channels 1-4, and 1/4" inputs for the other inputs. It can record on up to 4 tracks simultaneously. The manual is very easy to follow, it is very easy to master after running thr...
This is a cassette based (1/8") 4 track recorder that records on high bias, type II cassettes in a single direction. It has dbx type II noise reduction, but on my used machine this had drifted, so recordings sounded better without it engaged. dbx on track 4 can be disengaged separately for timecode purposes. There is a pitch wheel that allows...
The Tascam 388 (also known as the Studio 8) is a 1/4" 8 track recorder with a built in mixer that was released in 1985. It is very similar in function to Tascam's cassette based Portastudio, although it never received that same designation. The mixer section sports 8 channels, 2 groups, an auxiliary loop, an effect loop, and "access" on each c...

The Tascam Portastudio 424 is a cassette based four track recorder and mixer. Of course this is an older piece of technology, so I will review the unit based on what it is capable of doing, and not fault it for being a product of its time. If you're looking to get into recording music, I would definitely recommend looking into a computer based...
I have used this Tascam cassette 4 track for over 4 years now. These machines are pretty out dated but I enjoy the simplicity of recording onto cassette tapes. You can buy cassettes at many stores making it easier than memory cards. and you are recording analog! I also use the machine to make mix tapes so I can listen to them in my car. So many ...
The features are pretty good. I havent used the effects channels yet, but it has a nice 'mini mixing board' with treble and bass. Four 1/4" jacks at the front, and two XLR's in the back. It can be tricky to work with, but understanding it isn't that hard once you get the hang of things. $68.00 USD I bought my first...
I got it in hand for six months. I sold it for a Tascam M50 and frankly I would not! I tried a few analog console in search of a special sound is a vintage soul / jazz production hiphop / rap and this one to sound really special. The EQ gives a soul to the drums and bass in particular. I imagine the duo Tascam388/MPC60. <br...
I have used for several years, I cut his teeth on it. Do not expect a mega sound (it is only normal tapes). This is the best 4-track tape that I use is cohrente essay. Especially very practical to store Bauches composting. Also a good training using the mixing desk intgre (the record is made fr). on the ot...
