Hi
Can anyone suggest what the problem is likely to be with my Tascam
Porta 07 (a multitrack cassette recorder)?
I'm operating the unit with a 12V 500mA power supply (exact equivalent
to the Tascam brand PS-P2 power supply that goes with this unit) with
correct polarity. The cassette transport works OK, but nothing else
does.
The power light doesn't come on, and neither do any of the many LEDs
including the level meters. There is complete silence from all the
outs including the headphone socket. There is nothing working at all,
except the cassette motor and the cassette mechanism.
I'm guessing that because everything is out, it's likely that there is
one faulty component somewhere which is not letting power through to
the electronics. As I have plenty of spares and could replace any of
the discrete electronics components, it seems a shame to have to dump
the unit if it can be fixed. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks
