20 Most Recent Tascam FW 1884 FireWire Audio/MIDI Interface & DAW Control Surface Questions & Answers

I would go for getting someone else to record at studio, means they have all the professional ideas to bring to the table, solve problems, but if your just playing around in home a small focusrite 2/2 should do you, with 2 inputs for left and right mono from desk, or also dual linking in two separate channels via xlr.

Only if you are using microphones that require phantom power- otherwise no.

Several of my music programs seem to have a limit of around 2Gb for a track... this is inspite of having plenty of disk space... this seems to be a limit set by the program rather than the resources available.

I recommend contacting Tascam at this link:http://tascam.com/contact/support/ Describe your problem. As far as I can tell there were some problems with the media you could use. This article might help:http://www.sweetwater.com/forums/showthread.php?10128-Tascam-CD-RW5000 You could also try contacting Sweetwater Sound and ask:http://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/ They have a great staff.

Here are some good links for you:http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ ( Audacity is a free recording program ) also:http://www.reaper.fm/ ( Reaper is the software I use and is full featured and worth the licence fee and free to try) also:http://www.recordingreview.com/ ( excellent site to answer all your recording questions. Note the free download.)

If you are trying to copy disks that are copyrighted, the unit is likely locked out with copy protect firmware from doing copies.

I would vote for a power supply issue on this one.

You can use headphones or monitor speakers that are hooked to an amp. If you don't have one ,consider downloading a manual:http://www.tascam.com/i-3582-232-128-1-4A000F90.pdf Pay attention to the caution on page 9 and the hookup diagrams are on pages 12 and 13. Hope this helps.

The most likely case is that one of the main output transistors (if which there are many) is shorted. When the protect circuit senses DC on the final output, it will not allow the output relay to come on to protect the speakers from raw DC. With the power removed, you can check between each outputs Emitter and Collector and you will probably find close to zero ohms. From that point you need to unsolder each of the pins of the bad channel until you find the shorted device(s) and replace them.

Depending on the model, there are four around that date, it could be the insert jacks are tarnished reducing the signal flow between the pre amp stage and digital power amplifier. It could be the power amplifier has failed. It could even be customer error in wiring. This assumes there is the correct level of signal entering the input sockets of course.

Are you sure you are quoting accurately? Could it be one of these instead? http://www.lyrics.cat/lyrics+lead+a+horse+to+water
