$650 · Tascam Portastudio 424 Tape Recorder

Top quality old (cassette) tape recorder. Won't make you sound like Nebraska, but might make you an album that is warm and unique 😛 Matter of opinion, but this and a couple 57's, and it'll be way sweeter than what you create with an apogee duet and some fancy condenser in logic. Plus bonus is you'll actually have to play the parts right. It all seems in working order, but these are older units and occasionally require some maintenance and it hasn't been thoroughly used in a some time. But if you're looking at buying this you probably understand that. Shows some marks, but overall good condition. This has been in the family for 30 plus years. • 4 channel strips & 2 stereo inputs • 4 Mic / line Pre amps with jack input • 2 band EQ on each channel (which sound real nice) • 1 effect send • 3 tape speed settings - High, Normal, Slow • dbx noise reduction • Electronic transport for better tape handling
