CHEAP. "Loopi Spoonhead" wrote in message news:V4j9a.365263$be.340777@rwcrnsc53... The Tascam 80-8 (8 track 1/2 inch reel-to-reel) is in real good shape for its age, and as compared to others I've seen on ebay has all the channles working, remote, rolling stand, etc. The most it might need is a cleaning and calibration. Comes with the DX8 and is at starting bid of $99 right now. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...15199&item=251... &rd=1 --- The mixer is in perfect working order, but is missing the power supply, which Tascam and a few others on the web can sell you. There is one knob missing (any knob, you choose, since you can move them around) and some of the little plastic color coded covers for the knobs (the knobs are there and functional) have gone to the place where single socks and pens and keys go. Tascam has a knob set for sale as well, foget the price but it's pretty cheap. Anyway, it's a $1600 mixer, in GOOD shape functionally and electronically, that needs a little tad bit of TLC, and it's at a $50 bid right now. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...23785&item=251... &rd=1 ------ 3 Audio technica mics. All in working order, although the atm11 is a bit beat up to look at. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...15198&item=251... &rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...15198&item=251... &rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...15198&item=251... &rd=1 ------ 94 DiscMaker c-30 cassettes (the good ones) new and in the box.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...14962&item=301... &rd=1 $5 so far. Hope some of this can help you out, James Actually you might want to verify that bit about the power supply for the M1516, there was a guy on the Tascam BBS looking for one of those and he said they were no longer available from Tascam. That PS is VERY proprietary (sort of an oversized lump in the middle thing, it's an AC Power supply) it might be hard to cob one together for it, it's not like a larger console PS. Analogeezer Hello all! I've been asked to look at repairing a Tascam M1516 mixer. Seems that the previous owner got a bit rough with it and broke the power connector off the PC board and then apparently lost the connector. As it was presented to me, there is no power supply, no mating connector inside the mixer, and a broken (but easily repairable) printed circuit board where the power is applied. Could anyone help me figure out, first of all, what voltage(s) are needed? Even better yet, although this is a longshot, could anyone help me figure out what voltage goes where? I figured out the ground pad, now it looks like there are two +VDC traces I need to tie into. I should mention that I have NO CLUE about musical instruments, but am fairly handy with electronics. thanks, Kevin |

So, call Tascam and get the service manual for the thing. It'll be about $20. Could be the thing has the regulators in the outboard power supply. Could be it even has the rectifiers and it takes AC in. You could probably figure it out by looking where the traces go, but the manual is $20 and you can bill it to the customer. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

Yes, a service manual would good place to start I suppose! Do Tascam
manuals come with schematics? I've already made a little headway by scoping out ebay listings, and I now see that I need to feed this thing +17.5V and -20.4V. Talk about a wierd combination! I could power it up from a benchtop power supply if I were sure of which traces on the board to apply which voltage to... |

You will get full schematics and parts layouts, although you probably won't get a detailed circuit description like old service manuals used to give. ..I've already made a little headway by scoping out ebay listings, and I now see that I need to feed this thing +17.5V and -20.4V.

That makes sense... it is probably unregulated, then, and supplying power for +/-15V regulators. So there is probably some slop in those numbers. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.
