All, I have a Yamaha MD8 which has phantom power on channels 1 & 2 (always worked very well), but I wanted something external that could offer more features so...
Thank you all for your input on my questions about phantom power supply for the MDM-X4. I'm a little overwhelmed by all the support from this little community!...
Hi, I'm using a Tascam 564. Is there a way to record the output of the repeat function to effectively make a recorded loop? I know it is possible to copy and ...
